Inspired by former investigations of rechargeable Li-N 2 batteries, we show a new N 2 conversion path in Li-N 2 batteries via introducing trace water into the electrolyte. A series of in situ / ex situ mechanistic studies from macro- to microscale are performed to reveal the N 2 reduction and evolution pathway in Li-N 2 batteries.
In terms of practical applications, the researchers hooked their battery design up to a solar panel and a 45-watt solar light, which the battery kept illuminated for 12 hours after a day''s charge. It''s a small-scale demonstration of the potential of ''water batteries'' to be used for renewable energy storage, which should encourage more research.

Water and electronics don't usually mix, but as it turns out, batteries could benefit from some H 2 O. By replacing the hazardous chemical electrolytes used in commercial batteries with water, scientists have developed a recyclable 'water battery' – and solved key issues with the emerging technology, which could be a safer and greener alternative.
These devices use metals such as magnesium or zinc, which are cheaper to assemble and less toxic than the materials currently used in other kinds of batteries. Batteries store energy by creating a flow of electrons that move from the positive end of the battery (the cathode) to the negative end (the anode).
