As use of renewable energy sources increases, so too does the need for suitable storage systems for the energy produced. Aluminium-Sulfur (Al-S) batteries provide a reliable energy storage option, but suffer from a low voltage output and despite aluminium and sulfur being two of the world’s most abundant and low-cost materials, other components in batteries are prohibitively expensive. This project aims to address these challenges by designing an Al-S battery technology with efficient electrode materials and low-cost electrolytes, making them both cost effective and capable of high levels of energy storage. The outcome will place Australia as a world leader in battery technology and support our future renewable energy storage needs.

随着可再生能源的使用增加，对所产生的能量的合适的存储系统的需求也增加。铝-硫（Al-S）电池提供了可靠的能量存储选择，但是受到低电压输出的影响，尽管铝和硫是世界上最丰富和低成本的两种材料，但是电池中的其他组件非常昂贵。该项目旨在通过设计一种具有高效电极材料和低成本电解质的铝硫电池技术来应对这些挑战，使其既具有成本效益，又能够实现高水平的能量存储。这一成果将使澳大利亚成为电池技术的世界领导者，并支持我们未来的可再生能源存储需求。
