GM researchers demonstrate hierarchical electrode architectures for high energy lithium-chalcogen rechargeable batteries

Green Car Congress

lithium-sulfur (Li-S) and lithium selenium (Li-Se) systems— are promising candidates for high energy electrical storage solution. Cell level calculations suggests that the hierarchical electrode architectures have the potential to increase the specific energy to more than 350?Wh?kg Scheme of SPC synthesis route.

European Researchers Developing Multifunctional Structural Composite Material That Can Double as Energy Storage

Green Car Congress

Researchers from Imperial College London and their European partners, including Volvo Car Corporation, are developing a prototype multifunctional structural composite material composed of carbon fibers and a polymer resin which can store and discharge electrical energy and which is also strong and lightweight enough to be used for car parts.
