Aiming to provide a better alternative to market-dominating lithium batteries, the Cornell University researchers led by Professor Lynden Archer explored the use of more affordable materials. A new technique to incorporate aluminium resulted in rechargeable batteries offering up to 10,000 error-free cycles, a research announcement said. Aluminium is abundant in the Earth’s crust and is trivalent and light, meaning it has a high capacity to store more energy than many other metals. It can be tricky to integrate into a battery’s electrodes, however,

Aluminum-anode batteries offer sustainable alternative

April 5, 2021 The cost of harvesting solar energy has dropped so much in recent years that it’s giving traditional energy sources a run for their money. However, the challenges of energy storage – which require the capacity to bank an intermittent and seasonally variable supply of solar energy – have kept the technology from being economically competitive. Cornell researchers led by Lynden Archer, the Joseph Silbert Dean of Engineering and the James A. Friend Family Distinguished Professor of Engineering, have been exploring the use of low-cost materials to create rechargeable batteries that will make energy storage more affordable. These materials could also provide a safer and more environmentally friendly alternative to lithium-ion batteries, which currently dominate the market but are slow to charge and have a knack for catching fire.
