Features leading edge battery technology including lithium-ion, biological and various ultracapacitors.
Batteries, in general, have not gone through much improvement in the modern times, compared to other technology. Yes, people now have access to laptops that can last for five hours on a single charge and smartphones that can go for days before needing a recharge, but these aren’t enough. Before the society can take full […]
Continue ReadingThe Batteriser is the first micro-thin, stainless steel sleeve that extends by up to 8 times a battery’s life, just by slipping the product into it. The key here is that most devices only tap a fraction of the energy a battery has, and the Batteriser taps into the remaining energy that is, usually, thrown […]
Continue ReadingBy Guest Blogger Clive Rollison Given Deutsche Bank’s prediction that the solar energy market will reach $5 trillion by 2030, the continued growth of this successful industry depends on a viable solar battery. With Elon Musk’s Tesla, Mercedes-Benz and various startups, all challenging to create an effective solar battery, it only remains to be seen; […]
Continue ReadingA couple of months ago, Tesla Motors announced an ambitious new technology—the Tesla Powerwall, which is a battery that can power up homes. The idea is that houses could harvest and store energy generated by solar panels during the day and use it to power up at night or during a power outage. The […]
Continue ReadingAre you looking for a way to store the power generated by your off-grid solar energy system, wind turbine system or are you just looking to replace the battery in your car? Getting the right battery for the right job is about more than finding out what the wattage and amps are. There are, in […]
Continue ReadingThe Mobion fuel cell developed by MTI Micro is a green solution to battery technology. In fact the Mobion Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC) technology is much greener than batteries that use lithium for power plus the DMFC lasts hours longer in small electronic devices such as cell phones, laptops and digital cameras. Methanol, once […]
Continue ReadingSome people have theorized that the Hydrogen Economy would start in the small electronics marketplace and Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies has now done its part to make sure this dream is coming true. The Horizon MiniPak is a portable, reusable electronics charger that is based upon hydrogen technology. One simply inserts a HydroStik cartridge into […]
Continue ReadingPeople living off the grid have done this for years. The will use wind or solar power and then store the extra electricity as either hydrogen or inside lead acid batteries for later use. Now, Panasonic has developed a home lithium ion battery that will rival all others for massive storage of home electricity. Panasonic […]
Continue ReadingOn August 5, the Obama Administration awarded a $2.4 billion grant for development of advanced battery technology. Michigan will be one of the largest recipients of this money gaining an approximate 50-percent share of the federal bucks. Companies like A123Systems, Compact Power, KD Advanced Battery Group, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler will all get a […]
Continue ReadingIBM, yes, the computer company is fed up with the lagging green economy. That is why they have decided to build the boldest battery yet that will put lithium ion to shame. The next generation battery by IBM is said to be able to store 10X the power that today’s top lithium ions can handle. […]
