Lignin for Sustainable Batteries

/in , /by

Sustainable Batteries Made From Wood Industry By-Products: In the ThüNaBsE (Thuringia Sodium-Ion Battery for Scalable Energy Storage) project, the researchers are developing and evaluating a new type of sodium-ion battery based on lignin — from raw materials to a 1-Ah full cell. The project aims to support increasing independence from critical raw materials while fostering the transition to cheaper, more sustainable and safe batteries. It is being supported by an industrial advisory board consisting primarily of regional companies, including the Thuringia-based companies Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH, …
