Could a tank of ice or hot water be a battery- Yes! If a battery is a device for storing energy, then storing hot or cold water to power a building's heating or air-conditioning system is a different type of energy storage.
Climate change has made the development of green, clean energy solutions a global imperative. Solar energy is already a widely accepted technology and offers a renewable, clean source of energy that can be fed back into the electricity grid or stored.
The researchers, led by Jennifer L. Schaefer, professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Notre Dame, analyzed how magnesium-ion-conducting solid polymer electrolytes may work in two separate battery systems.
Clean energy solutions are rapidly gaining traction as a significant addition to the total energy supply. In recent decades, the use of sustainable energy technology has exploded over the world. Wind power, nuclear power...
There has been a plethora of interesting research into self-powered energy harvesting devices. In a paper published in Applied Clay Science, a study led by Xuemei Wang has explored mica-based triboelectric nanogenerators for this purpose.
Solar energy plays an important role in the fight against climate change as a substitute for fossil fuels. Dye-sensitized solar cells promise to be a low-cost supplement to the photovoltaic systems we know today.
A paper published online in Advanced Materials has investigated and compared properties of organic and perovskite photovoltaic devices including their charge dynamics to highlight key factors limiting their performance and provide pertinent information that will inform their design.
To create an economical redox flow battery, scientists from the South China University of Technology have developed a molecular compound that acts as a cost-effective electrolyte, facilitating a consistent flow battery that holds 99.98% capacity per cycle.
As the global manufacturing of electric vehicles accelerates, one unavoidable result will be an increase in the number of retired lithium-ion batteries, which, with exception of traditional lead-acid car batteries, are hard to decompose of.
The widespread adoption of electric vehicles is hampered by issues with charging time and driving range. To provide a review of the current state of these issues in the electric vehicle industry, a paper published online...
