German Startup Aims to Develop Lithium-Free Large-Scale Storage
Published
The German startup CMBlu wants to create an alternative to the lithium batteries that are widely used today. Lithium batteries can now be found in many areas, for example in smartphones, electric cars, and electricity storage systems.
The company is working on large-scale storage systems that do without lithium. Such storage systems can absorb electricity and release it again later. They are especially important when energy from wind and solar installations is to be stored, because this energy is not always available when it is needed.
The startup's technology is intended to be an option that works without the raw material lithium. This could reduce dependence on lithium, which is extracted in only a few places around the world. The precise details of the technology are explained at length in the report.
The development shows that new ways of storing energy are being sought in Germany. Whether the technology can establish itself on a large scale remains currently uncertain.
