Breakthrough in Energy Storage
In renewable energy, storing the electricity generated is vital for ensuring a continuity of electricity supply.
As a solution, Engineers and Scientists at The University of Texas at Austin have achieved a breakthrough in the use of a one-atom thick structure called "graphene" as a new carbon-based material for storing electrical charge in ultracapacitor devices, perhaps paving the way for the massive installation of renewable energies such as wind and solar power.
