A major breakthrough from Bengaluru’s scientific community could shape the future of sustainable energy storage. Researchers at the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences, led by Dr. Kavita Pandey, in collaboration with researchers from Shiv Nadar Institution of Eminence, have developed a new composite material that could make aluminium-ion batteries safer, more stable, longer-lasting, affordable, and sustainable for large-scale energy storage applications.
Aluminium-ion batteries are considered a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries due to aluminium’s abundance, lower cost, higher charge-storage capacity, and improved safety. However, challenges related to rapid cathode degradation have so far limited their commercial viability. The newly developed material aims to address these limitations and could open new possibilities for next-generation clean energy technologies.
