In his chemistry lab, Jiang and his students at the University of Cincinnati have created a new battery that could have profound implications for the large-scale energy storage needed by wind and solar farms. Innovations such as UC’s will have profound effects on green energy, Jiang said.
The other battery-centered Energy Innovation Hub announced today by the DOE is the Energy Storage Research Alliance, led by Argonne National Laboratory. “This project will undertake the grand challenge of electrochemical energy storage in a world dependent on intermittent solar and wind power.
The group plans to keep costs for this future technology low by using cheaper raw materials, simpler electronics, and new, efficient manufacturing techniques. The pursued technology is also expected to be safer, and to create batteries that charge and discharge quickly.
The consortium’s leaders hope this community will include not just the co-principal investigators, but also the scores of graduate students and postdoctoral scholars who will perform much of the research, and other battery scientists around the world.
The results have been published in Nature and other journals. In other news, the startup announces it has received an exclusive technology licence from Harvard University’s Office of Technology Development (OTD) to scale solid-state battery technology. In addition, a good US$5 million has come in via a seed funding round.
Although new batteries mostly use lead from recycled ones, in many countries the recycling process relies on techniques that pollute the environment and hurt human health. One in three children suffer from lead poisoning globally, according to a 2020 UNICEF report, with much of the suffering in developing economies.
