Electronic and small electric devices need power. Needs escalate.

Despite the large hype toward green hydrogen and electrolyzer systems, the electrolyzer market is still considerably small.

Toyota has commissioned Victoria's first commercial-grade permanent hydrogen production, storage and refuelling facility at its former manufacturing site at Altona in Melbourne's west.

Researchers have been exploring the use of low-cost materials to create rechargeable batteries that will make energy storage more affordable. Now, they have shown that a new technique incorporating aluminum results in rechargeable batteries that offer up to 10,000 error-free cycles.

In this article IDTechEx provides commentary on the reference during Volkswagen's recent Power Day to their long-term strategy of employing high-manganese cathodes for their 'volume segment'. What does 'high-manganese' refer to, and how do they compare to other cathode materials?

A battery storage system will help balance the power system when power demand spikes for short periods of time. It will also act as a support to intermittent generation options, like wind and solar. The system will be able to power up to 20,000 homes for one hour.

Apple today announced over 110 of its manufacturing partners around the world are moving to 100 percent renewable energy for their Apple production, with nearly 8 gigawatts of planned clean energy set to come online. Once completed, these commitments will avoid over 15 million metric tons of CO2e annually — the equivalent of taking more than 3.4 million cars off the road each year.

The strong potential of hydrogen is driven by the fact that it is impossible to electrify some of the most polluting sectors, including the steel, ammonia, and glass industries. In these sectors, hydrogen will be produced from renewable energy employing electrolyzer systems.

As demand for electric vehicles and stationary energy storage grows, there will be an increased need to properly manage waste and end-of-life Li-ion batteries, providing an opportunity for new businesses, business models and processes. As part of this, recycling will play a key role. This premium article will cover the processes and technologies used for Li-ion battery recycling.

Redox flow batteries are rechargeable devices that store energy in reversible redox couples (active materials).

In Graubünden, a new 1.25 megawatt large-scale battery has put into operation. At the beginning of 2020, the largest Swiss indoor battery with 1.35 megawatts was connected to the grid in Thurgau. Both storage power plants support Swissgrid with primary and secondary control energy, stabilize local grids and serve to avoid peak loads.

Yotta Energy has selected Flex as its manufacturing partner for the production of its PV-Coupled energy storage system. This partnership will allow Yotta to rapidly scale its technology for commercial and industrial markets.

This article series is intended to assist those designing or using electronic and small electrical devices seeking to modernise. It will also assist those in their value chains even including investors and governments. The advances revealed and predicted apply widely from medical electronics to personal and household electronics, Internet of Things and more.

Exploration of extremely cold environments, from Earth's polar regions to the moon and Mars, requires technology that can rapidly store and deliver electricity at ultralow temperatures. NASA's Perseverance rover, for example, needs heaters to keep the rover's battery system from freezing in Martian temperatures averaging about -81 F (-62 C).

Patents can provide useful insight into innovation trends within a certain technology area, with a patent landscape providing information on the following as somewhat of proxy for innovation and activity in a market. This premium article presents an overview of a patent landscape performed on the Li-ion battery space.
