A team of researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have come up with a new mechanism to speed up the charging of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries for EVs. The key component […]
In our last post, we summarized how cryogenic battery works in 3 steps including Liquefying, Storing, and gasifying. During this 3-step process, ambient air by means of electricity transformed into liquid air. But we did […]
Cryogenic energy storage or cryogenic battery is the use of low-temperature liquids (cryogen) such as liquid air or liquid nitrogen as energy storage (battery). But how does it work? First, the ambient air is filtered […]
The 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to 3 scientists who developed lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. But why batteries? Olof Ramstrom, a member of the Nobel Committee for Chemistry, said that Li-ion batteries have had a […]
This year, the Nobel Prize in chemistry has got to the developers of Lithium-ion or Li-ion battery. The laureates of the prize are John B. Goodenough, M. Stanley Whittingham, and Akira Yoshino from left to […]
The world’s largest technology investor, SoftBank’s Vision Fund, has made its first investment in an energy storage company, betting US$110 million on Swiss start-up Energy Vault. Energy Vault’s storage solution was created based on the […]
South Australia’s Planning Council gave approval just before the end of last month to a 500MW (AC) solar farm project, co-located with 250MW / 1,000MWh of battery energy storage from renewables developer EPS Energy. EPS […]
Almost 97,000 tonnes of lithium-ion batteries were recycled in 2018, Circular Energy Storage estimates, with about 67,000 tonnes accounted for by China and 18,000 tonnes recycled in South Korea. ——————–***——————– Source:ow.ly/ukPa50uVqdu Photo:ow.ly/pJ8h50uVqds & ow.ly/scBK50uVqdj …………………………………….

MS Roald Amundsen has made maritime history as the first cruise ship in the world to sail purely on battery power. The new expedition cruise ship, designed for some of the most spectacular waters of […]
One of the biggest worries surrounding electric vehicles has nothing to do with how long they can drive and everything to do with how long they will last. EVs haven’t been around long enough to […]
