Scientists develop a new type of battery to store electricity for a long time with low materials cost, about 23 USD per kWh.
The first battery recycling plants using new technology will open in 2022.
This type of lithium battery can operate even at high temperatures without exploding. This is definitely an impressive achievement and very important for applications on…
Concrete builds the foundation of the modern world today, but what drives the future of technology based on that concrete is lithium-ion batteries.
The new battery can power smartphones for five days or allow electric cars to run 1,000 km on a single charge.
Scientists have recently found a solution to store renewable energy even when the sun is not shining or the wind is not blowing.
The team is still trying to go one step further, trying to see if they can fully charge the battery in just 5 minutes.
And best of all, they publish new research so that other automakers can develop and apply it themselves.
The long way to replace li-ion batteries (and reduce the exploitation of rare earths) begins with a small success.
It looks like you will not be able to escape soon enough to always carry with you a spare charger!
Most people use their smartphones all day. However, even without much use, there are very few phones with enough battery capacity from morning to midnight.
Although their actual explosion rate is very small, but with billions of devices in use today, the number may be larger than one can imagine.
We are still using the old lithium-ion battery technology of many years ago, while the demand for this type of battery is increasing, as mobile devices and electric vehi…
The Earth warms up, we turn on the air conditioner. The more the air conditioner runs, the more Earth's atmosphere is affected, and then warms up. So hot, we find the ai…
