Summary

Story summary

Korean researchers developed a lithium-metal battery that addresses dendrite issues, offering an 800 km range, 300,000 km lifespan, and 12-minute charging time.
The "cohesion-inhibiting liquid electrolyte" enhances stability and performance by reducing dendrite growth.
China's sodium-ion and solid-state batteries are projected to lead the market with capacities of 123GWh and 91GWh by 2025.
Monash University scientists created a fast, safe water-based flow battery for home solar storage, surpassing traditional lithium-ion batteries.
The redesigned membrane improves speed and efficiency, potentially making the flow battery available in a few years to support Australia's clean energy goals.
