US-based Kronos Advanced Technologies and Yasheng Group have entered into a strategic partnership to develop a nuclear battery with an expected lifespan of up to 50 years. This pioneering technology aims to revolutionize energy storage by providing a reliable, long-lasting power source for critical sectors such as medical devices, aerospace, military applications, and even electric flight.
In an era where the demand for uninterrupted power is escalating, Betavolt, a visionary startup based in Beijing, has taken a significant leap in battery technology. The company has developed the BV100, a nuclear battery smaller than a coin, promising to revolutionize how we power our devices. This innovative battery, utilizing the energy from decaying nickel-63 isotopes and a diamond semiconductor, can potentially supply power for an astonishing 50 years without the need for charging or maintenance.
