New Batteries from IBM Could Store 10x More Energy
IBM has announced that it is developing a next-generation rechargeable battery capable of storing 10 times more energy than today's top lithium-ion batteries.
The new batteries could be used to power cars and store power for smart energy grids, according to IBM.IBM's multiyear battery research project will also involve the use of nanotechnology, materials science and supercomputing.The company said it plans to discuss its work on the batteries at its Almaden Institute 2009 conference, which IBM said attracts "innovative thinkers" from academia, government research labs and industry.
The 2009 gathering will be held Aug. 26 and 27 at the IBM Almaden Research Center in San Jose. ( See more)
