Milczarek and Inganäs describe how a class of organic compounds known as quinones allows the lignin derivatives to shed a proton and store this electric charge in its place. Materials for charge storage are desired from easily accessible and renewable sources. Their research appears in the 23 March issue of the journal Science.

The desalination battery operates by performing cycles in reverse on the team’s mixing entropy battery ( earlier post ), which can extract energy from the salinity difference between seawater and river water and store it as useful electrochemical energy. A variety of desalination technologies have been developed over the years.

Third, you can take advantage of EV charger incentives to subsidize the cost of your investment. Next, as a homeowner, you will also have to add the cost of enabling an EV charger to your budget. This turns EV batteries into a source for power storage that can be leveraged to balance energy capacity in your condo.

Smart EV charging uses intelligence to manage when and how an electric vehicle plugged into a smart charger will receive power for charging based on the cost of electricity, its availability, and the needs of the driver. Together these capabilities can flatten the demand curve and help a location reduce maximum capacity and costs.

And in a true smart grid, electric cars will not only be able to draw on electricity to run their motors, they will also be able to do the reverse: send electricity stored in their batteries back into the grid when it is needed. In effect, cars would be acting like tiny power stations. While utilities such as E.ON
