Nanotech 'superbatteries' that can last longer and charge faster that current tech begin mass production A Czech company opened on Monday a production line for batteries based on nanotechnology, which uses tiny parts invisible to human eyes. The batteries are touted as potentially more efficient, longer-lasting, cheaper, lighter and above all safer. The automatic line will operate for several months to get all necessary certifications. Nanotechnology can increase the size and surface of batteries electrodes, making them sponge-like so that they can absorb more energy during charging and ultimately increasing the energy storage capacity. His battery is designed to store energy from renewable electric sources. The next planned type will be suitable for electric cars. The price has not been set yet but it is supposed to be about a half of the cost of current lithium batteries of the same capacity. Read more: http://ift.tt/2hgPPa6
