Eco friendly, inexpensive system for storing high-power energy from pine biomass

Scientists have come up with a lithium ion capacitor using electrodes produced from wood particles that are discarded as waste in sawmills. This biomass is both readily available and sustainable, inexpensive processes have been used to produce electrodes. The results reveal that the materials derived from biomass have excellent properties for obtaining eco friendly, cost-effective systems designed to store high-power energy.

Eco friendly low-cost energy storage system from pine biomass

Madrid, Spain (SPX) Mar 01, 2025 The challenge of storing renewable energy efficiently remains a crucial factor in advancing sustainable power solutions. Since renewable energy sources such as wind and solar are inherently variable, effective storage systems are necessary to balance supply with demand. "In the field of renewable energies, we cannot control the wind, heat, light, etc., that nature offers us.
