While several classes of solid-state electrolytes with high ionic conductivity have been identified over recent years, compatibility issues between electrodes and the solid-state electrolyte render their integration into a full battery cell challenging. A paper on their work is published in the RSC journal Energy & Environmental Science.

H2One integrates a photovoltaic power generation system with batteries for storing output power; a hydrogen-producing water electrolysis unit; solid state hydrogen storage—a MmNi 5 (Mischmetal-nickel) alloy); and a hydrogen fuel cell unit. MmNi 5 alloys belong to a class known as AB 5 -type alloys. Click to enlarge.
