Devices known as flow batteries attract a lot of attention from scientists looking for affordable solutions for grid-scale energy storage, but are they affordable enough? A team at MIT believes there ...

DURHAM, N.C. -- Electrolysis, passing a current through water to break it into gaseous hydrogen and oxygen, could be a handy way to store excess energy from wind or solar power. The hydrogen can be ...

(Nanowerk News) Arrays of metal electrodes are often used in medical procedures that require monitoring or delivering electrical impulses in the body, such as brain surgery and epilepsy mapping.

Scientists in China have constructed and tested a device that uses redox couples paired with a single triple-junction amorphous-silicon photoelectrode. When tested under a xenon lamp simulating one ...

Scientists have found a way to push zinc–bromine flow batteries to the next level. By trapping corrosive bromine with a ...

To meet urgent net-zero goals, the global energy system is shifting from fossil fuels to renewable sources such as solar and wind. Because these sources are intermittent, efficient storage and ...

UK researchers have used standard carbon paper electrodes modified with electrophoretically deposited nitrogen-doped graphene (N-G) to improve the electrochemical performance of hybrid redox flow ...
