A new kind of battery invented by Jay Whitacre, a professor of
materials science at Carnegie Mellon University and founder of the
startup Aquion Energy, could make renewable electricity more practical
and economical around the world. Aquion is about to start full-scale
production of the batteries at a new factory in Mount Pleasant,
Pennsylvania.
Whitacre says his batteries’ most promising
near-term application lies in storing energy from solar panels or other
renewable sources in off-grid homes or rural areas, providing a much
cheaper 24-hour power source than a common alternative: diesel power.
Lead-acid batteries are used for this purpose today, but they are toxic
and require air-conditioning to avoid deterioration in some climates,
raising costs.
