To take advantage of the growing abundance and cheaper costs of renewable energy, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) scientists and engineers are 3D printing flow-through electrodes (FTEs), ...

A bamboo-inspired design helps ions move faster through thick energy storage materials, improving performance and enabling more efficient, scalable batteries and supercapacitors. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...

Queen’s University Belfast 3D-printed a flow battery cell for $100, making energy storage research faster and far cheaper.

Iron-chromium redox flow batteries are pivotal in addressing the challenges of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, which often suffer from inconsistency in energy supply. These batteries ...

Swedish scientists have developed a redox flow battery with polymer electrodes, based on a special conductive polymer known as PEDOT. The battery features a water-based electrolyte based on a solution ...

The disassembled components of the NAS-EFC, including concentric stainless steel screws, current collectors, housings and bearings. The integrated screw-pump mechanism allows the device to handle ...

(Nanowerk News) Electrolysis, passing a current through water to break it into gaseous hydrogen and oxygen, could be a handy way to store excess energy from wind or solar power. The hydrogen can be ...
