Advancements in energy storage, including new battery types and longer-duration batteries, are driving innovation in the sector. Retired power generation plants are being repurposed as storage sites, and the residential and commercial and industrial (C&I) sectors...

Lithium-ion batteries play an essential role in the fight against climate change. In fact, Li-ion–based technology is widely used both in electric vehicles (EVs), in which lightweight and high-performance batteries capable of supporting a high number of...

Alternatives to lead-acid and lithium batteries are gaining market share because they provide the growing number of energy storage reliant systems with new opportunities to reduce costs, increase performance, and improve environmental sustainability. These emerging...

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--e-Zinc, the company enabling sustainable, long-duration energy storage with its zinc-air battery, announced today that its CEO James Larsen was named one of Canada’s 2023 Clean50 in the research and development category. Larsen was selected...

SENS SuperTorque 8Z Genset Starting System solves the #1 problem with emergency generators: starting battery failure. Unless lead-acid starting batteries on gensets are replaced every one to three years, they fail suddenly, without warning. Even if replaced this...

Lithium-ion technology has long been the gold standard for a rechargeable energy storage system, but the lithium supply chain is not up to snuff here in the US and elsewhere around the world. That leaves room for alternative systems to edge into the market. The latest...

Salient Energy says it has completed safety testing with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) for its proprietary zinc-ion energy storage battery, an important step on the road to market. UL is part of a science safety enterprise that organizes essential testing for...

Batteries Events 2022, held last week in Lyon, France, hosted a special session on zinc batteries. Other special sessions were dedicated to sodium-ion batteries and lead-acid batteries. Having all these sessions at one of the largest battery events in Europe tells me...

Rechargeable zinc manganese dioxide batteries are based on the same tried and tested chemistry as the familiar household AA alkaline cell. Investments in the technology at City College of New York, starting in 2008 under Professor Sanjoy Banerjee, have helped bring...
