Energy storage – different technologies
Energy storage is becoming a more necessary good in our daily lives and increasingly in the near future. Whether it is to power our vehicles and phones, to utilise the energy that comes from renewable energy sources on a wind-still, cloudy day, or for server backup, we are becoming more and more reliant on batteries.
However, we have come to expect that batteries wear out and are being replaced in few years, only to dispose of old batteries.
Should it be this way?
The problem stems from the fact that conventional batteries deteriorate over time, whether they are used or not. They have a limited number of charge/discharge cycles, before they eventually need to be disposed of.
Bushveld Minerals Limited (LON:BMN), together with its subsidiaries, engages in the exploration and development of mineral projects in South Africa. It operates through three segments: Vanadium and Iron Ore, Coal Exploration, and Vanadium Mining and Production.
