Los Angeles plans to install the world’s largest storage battery that can deliver over 100 megawatts of power an hour for 4 hours
Until just a few decades ago, “sustainability” was a term that was hardly ever used. When humans needed a new resource they simply searched for it, found a way to extract it, and then implemented its use. In recent years, however, there has been more and more emphasis placed on the sustainable use of our […]

Layered oxides may be the key to extending the life of the environmentally-friendly zinc-ion battery
The future of battery storage technology hangs in the balance. The standard lithium-ion battery technology that is widely used today, as it turns out, may not be the best solution for large-scale applications due to a number of reasons. Now a team of researchers has developed a way to create a viable alternative, in the […]
