A new type of battery developed by BioLargo Energy Technologies promises to revolutionize energy storage by addressing the safety and performance limitations of conventional lithium batteries. The molten salt battery, which uses molten salts as the electrolyte, is designed to operate at high temperatures without catching fire, making it safer for use in homes and solar energy systems. Randall Moore, President and CEO of BioLargo, highlights the battery's potential to prevent fire-related incidents commonly associated with lithium-ion batteries. The new technology offers advantages such as longer cycle life, higher energy density, and suitability for heavy-scale applications like grid storage and renewable energy integration. BioLargo is expanding its energy program globally and will celebrate a new partnership with a Norwegian energy company on September 21. #MoltenSaltBattery #EnergyStorage #BatteryInnovation #SafeEnergy #RenewableEnergy #BioLargo
