Who invented a nickel-iron battery?

The nickel–iron battery was invented by Waldemar Jungner and Thomas Edison in 1899–1902 and fully developed over the past century 9, 10. With NiO (OH) as the cathode and Fe as the anode, a typical Ni–Fe battery is able to deliver specific gravimetric energy of ~30–50 Wh kg −1 and power of ~3–50 W kg −1 (refs 9, 10).

What is a nickel-iron (Ni-Fe) battery?
