Sandia researchers developing new family of metal-based ionic liquids for low-cost, efficient flow batteries

Green Car Congress

Sandia researchers have developed a new family of electrochemically reversible, metal-based ionic liquid (MetILs) that could lead to non-aqueous redox (reducing-oxidizing) flow-battery energy storage systems ( earlier post ) able to cost-effectively store three times more energy than today’s batteries.

Ioxus Developing Higher Power Density Ultracapacitors

Green Car Congress

Smaller Ioxus cells offer a power density of 22-28 kW/kg, and larger cells offer densities of 12-15 kW/kg, said Chad Hall, COO of Ioxus. Energy densities for the cells are typically around 2-4 Wh/kg. Ioxus says that it is working on increasing the energy densities as well. Ioxus makes carbon-carbon ultracapacitors—i.e.,
