WASHINGTON : Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Samsung group has discovered a way to create a battery with indefinite life.
Both MIT and Samsung are working in collaboration and declared today (Wednesday) that they recently discovered a way of creating batteries with an indefinite lifetime.
The process is based on replacing the existing liquid substance with a solid material instead.
The liquid-state-electrolyte battery currently degrades after a number of charges but this new technological breakthrough could allow for hundreds of thousands of charge-discharge cycles, but there’s more to it than that.
According to MIT, this new battery is a lot more resistant to temperature and external factors and there’s no danger of it catching on fire because there’s effectively nothing in there to burn.
It’s a safe and cost-efficient new technology which could be a game changer.
