Researchers from Adelaide University have developed a new technique for zinc-iodine batteries that can deliver over double the performance of iodine and lithium-ion batteries.
Aqueous zinc-iodine batteries, which use water to move the battery’s internal charges, are considered safer, more sustainable and more cost-effective for grid-scale energy storage than lithium-ion batteries.
