Lithium-air battery is a newly emerging technology that is said to rival the leading Lithium-ion batteries in the market. The concept of Li-air batteries was proposed around 1996 way after Li-ion batteries were introduced. In […]
Renewable energy generation is set to account for 95% of the net increase in global power supply through 2025 [1,2]. These renewable energy generation technologies include hydropower, solar power, and wind power. Although among the […]
Presently, global expansion of renewable energy is one of the main objectives to trade-off between faster energy transition and mitigating the environmental challenges. There is a surge to achieve the same in hydropower plants, as […]
The introduction of Lithium-ions(Li-ion) batteries has been as revolutionary to humanity as the discovery of plastic. Lithium-ion batteries are everywhere, from our mobile phones to now our cars and energy storage systems. The biggest push […]
Technologies such as electric vehicles and solar energy are gaining heavy traction in recent years. But there is one technology in particular which is extremely important for the feasibility of other upcoming technologies, and that […]
The floating battery storage system can play a key role in the rapid expansion of offshore renewables including offshore solar and wind. Due to the intermittent nature of these renewable power generations, floating battery storage […]
The world’s largest utility-scale battery storage energy system (BESS) will be built in New South Wales (NSW). On completion, this BESS project will be more than four times larger than the current largest which is […]
Asia has long been the house of the world’s leading centers of lithium-ion cell manufacturing and it seems to be continuing for the next decade. In line with the plummeting price of renewable-based technologies such […]
The United States (US) plans to build a new power plant in 2021 with a capacity of 40 GW. This power plant will mostly be dominated by solar and wind, accounting for more than 70% […]
Like all technology, lithium-ion batteries have evolved incorporating new chemistries for different applications and increased performance. Like most batteries, the lithium-ion version offers the same components inside the cell to produce power from a chemical […]
