‘A highly promising material for future energy-storage solutions’

Experts from Germany believe their most recent breakthrough advances the quality of solid-state, sodium-ion batteries. It’s technology that many researchers are pursuing as a replacement for common lithium-ion power packs, with the hope of finding a better-performing and cheaper alternative. The latest news from the labs at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology includes an update about […]

Research team develops new material that could help revive lithium-ion batteries — here’s how spent batteries could get second chance

Overworked lithium-ion batteries that power drones now have a stress management plan and a retirement option thanks to researchers who published their findings with the American Chemical Society. It’s part of an analysis of how lithium-ion battery strain in electric flying machines shortens their lifespans. The experiment also highlighted why the lithium packs may not […]
