Australian researchers achieve zinc-ion battery life breakthrough

Australian researchers are reporting a breakthrough with zinc-ion battery technology, developing a new method to significantly boost the structural stability of the cathode material that enables the battery to operate reliably for more than 5,000 charge-discharge cycles. June 24, 2025 David Carroll From pv magazine Australia Researchers at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), working with scientists from the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom, have developed a new way to improv...
