Scientists and engineers have created a battery that has the potential to power devices for thousands of years. The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) in Culham, Oxfordshire, collaborated with the University of Bristol to make the world’s first carbon-14 diamond battery.
The biggest concerns — and major motivation for researchers and startups to focus on new battery technologies — are related to safety, specifically fire risk, and the sustainability of the materials used in the production of lithium-ion batteries, namely cobalt, nickel and magnesium.
But new battery technologies are being researched and developed to rival lithium-ion batteries in terms of efficiency, cost and sustainability. Many of these new battery technologies aren’t necessarily reinventing the wheel when it comes to powering devices or storing energy.
Because lithium-ion batteries are able to store a significant amount of energy in such a small package, charge quickly and last long, they became the battery of choice for new devices. But new battery technologies are being researched and developed to rival lithium-ion batteries in terms of efficiency, cost and sustainability.
Columbia Engineers have developed a new, more powerful “fuel” for batteries—an electrolyte that is not only longer-lasting but also cheaper to produce. Renewable energy sources like wind and solar are essential for the future of our planet, but they face a major hurdle: they don’t consistently generate power when demand is high.
We explore cutting-edge new battery technologies that hold the potential to reshape energy systems, drive sustainability, and support the green transition.
