Energy Storage

Video interview with Applied Graphene Materials

There is divided opinion on future of traction fuel cells in electric vehicles, though few argue any more that they will power the majority of electric vehicles. Nonetheless some manufacturers are very enthusiastic and now could be the beginning of the end of the trough of disillusionment, indeed the time to invest.

What ducks and batteries have in common? The answer is Tesla's new home energy storage system. I will explain why.

SolidEnergy is a battery start up from MIT, which is presenting a solid state battery based on a very thin anode that results in very high energy density. The founders of the company are Dr. Quichao Hu and Professor Donald Sadoway.

Ericsson introduced "The power of touch" connecting people to all the object around them simply by touching it.

Researchers have invented a hysteretic charging scheme, which helps extend the upper bound of the capacitance of supercapacitors.

Engineers have created a battery that is made entirely out of one material, which can both move electricity and store it.

What do the new Apple Watch, a blood glucose meter, a smartphone and a tablet computer have in common? They're all rigid quadrilateral polyhedrons: rectangles that don't bend.

What happens when lithium-ion batteries overheat and explode has been tracked inside and out for the first time using sophisticated 3D imaging.
