Researchers Invent Everlasting Battery Material

Could the days of the humble lithium-ion battery be numbered thanks to the everlasting battery?

Researchers at Stanford University have revealed a new nanoparticle material which could be used to create everlasting batteries suitable for electrical grids.

According to the researchers, the material could be used for batteries that would be good for 30 years of useful life. The short lifetime of large batteries has been a major drawback limiting their use, but the new material could produce batteries that could undergo 100 times as many charging cycles as today’s batteries — via redwolf.newsvine.com
