Science Figured out: Sustainable and more powerful batteries
Science Figured Out lures young scientists out of their familiar lab or office and places them in front of a camera with a clear assignment: tell the general public about your research in a clear 3-minute pitch!
Some researchers connected to EnergyVille also took part.
Sustainable and more powerful batteries
Smartphones, laptops, electric cars, … We simply cannot live without batteries. But did you know that in five years’ time the demand for batteries is expected to be 15 times greater than today? But instead of producing 15 times more batteries, wouldn’t it be better to make more powerful batteries to meet the rising demand? Ahmed Shafique (EnergyVille/VITO/UHasselt) is working on such a new, more powerful battery: lithium sulphur batteries.
