Maybe flow batteries aren't always everything they're cracked up to be. A new technology from Australia is certainly raising this prospect, offering a novel approach to stationary energy storage—whose packaging at least harkens back to the old, familiar car battery. This makes for a super safe battery."

The economic benefits of recycling Li-ion batteries are clear, but at present, only a small percentage of them are recycled. In contrast, lead-acid batteries have a 99% recycling rate in the US. The two main processes for recycling lithium-ion batteries are pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy.

I personally love this distinctive grid at the front, it really looks like it means business. This vehicle comes in two battery sizes 50 and 75kWh. There are 3 driving modes on the right hand side charge, eco and power to optimise your performance and there is a battery level display rather than a fuel gauge. First drive.

This renewable production capacity is increasingly important to ensure the existing power grid can accept more renewable sources. Myth #2: Hydrogen gas is dangerous to store and use. Of course, this also has the merit of producing so-called “green hydrogen”. Crucially the driver does not have to fill up again for several hundred miles.

Within its compact 4.464m length, the two-seater EMERG-E contains a pair of electric motors, a lithium-ion battery pack, four inverters, a three-cylinder range-extending internal combustion engine and a gasoline tank. On the NEDC cycle, CO 2 emissions are 55g/km over a 300-mile combined range. This is about changing the rule of the game.
