British researchers created new non-toxic cell prototype could significantly shorten the charging time

Shanxi electric power attaches great importance to the distributed power supply development, & other; Fixed-point quantitative & throughout; Way, points county, the area in a timely manner to carry out the entire province distributed power given risk early warning mechanism research. By collecting master counties distributed power supply resources situation, the actual development potential, distributed power supply related policy and planning, in-depth study and analysis of the province's 99 county-level power supply company power capacity scale, the scale of power load and distributed power, set the standard for distributed power supply risk early warning. And according to the terminal substation power supply scope, the research determines the distribution network to access distributed power given ability, compiled the 'Shanxi Province distributed power grid risk early warning atlas, to guide the cities and counties to distributed power access services work better. It solves the distributed power distribution network access from the source by the risks of system security, stability and so on.

imperial college London researchers recently successfully developed a new type of non-toxic cell prototype, because of adopting new technology, completed in a few seconds can charge or discharge, or in the future has a good application prospect in the field of energy storage.

according to the research team reported in the journal energy and environmental science report, the new prototype battery while storage capacity than the current widely used in lithium batteries, but it USES non-toxic polymer materials, it can be finished in a few seconds to charge or discharge, will change color when battery charging, users can directly see the charging status of the battery.

the main working principle is to make the prototype battery polymer materials quickly absorb and release the positive or negative ion in salt water, once you start charging the battery, these ions will be attracted to the corresponding battery electrodes.

the research team, said in wind and solar power due to weather conditions can't continue to generate electricity, under the condition of this new type of battery fast charge and discharge advantages can play out & ndash; — Fast store the power generation facilities to produce electricity, and at any time according to needs to be passed to the electricity grid, is helpful to maintain the stability of the clean energy power generation.

one of the authors of the report, Alexander & middot; Focal vanni, 'said the battery prototype material is low cost production, plus use nontoxic, nonflammable aqueous electrolyte, the future may develop recyclable battery products.
