How 3000 Degree Bricks Will End Battery Storage Ziroth 2022-10-04 | Rondo Energy have recently received millions of dollars in investments for their thermal battery which uses superheated bricks. When heating is required, they make much more sense than lithium-ion batteries as they are cheaper, use no critical materials, last longer, and are just as efficient! Therefore, the Rondo heat battery can end battery storage as an option for heat applications!Thanks to everyone at Rondo Energy for their time and I wish them all the best in the future!Sources:Patent - patents.google.com/patent/US20220170386A1/enWebsite - rondo.comAnother article - newatlas.com/energy/rondo-heat-battery-brick-toaster#energystorage #battery #renewableenergy
The Shocking Problem That Could End Nuclear Fusion Ziroth 2022-08-31 | Did you know there is a big concern about fuel for nuclear fusion? This video looks into the problems and solutions!I have been fascinated with nuclear fusion for a few years now and love finding out about new breakthroughs in the area. However, things are not always sunshine and rainbows, and in this video I wanted to look at the tritium shortages the sector faces.
