Sustainable energy meets the ever-increasing demands of energy resources, sans the danger of putting the environment and nature at risk of depletion due to overuse. It is a concept that is being widely encouraged for creating an environment that is clean, green and sustainable. Graphene material enabled battery technology offers high mechanical flexibility, chemical stability, high thermal and electrical conductivity, high-surface area, unmatchable storage capacity, fast charging rate and is lightweight. These characteristic properties of the batteries contribute greatly to sustainable energy production, storage and consumption.
Sustainable energy sources
Sources of sustainable energy like wind, solar, hydropower and geothermal are sustainable as they do not get depleted and are highly stable. There are other various forms of sustainable energy that can be increasingly incorporated and utilized for the sustainable storage and consumption of energy. This eliminates the usage of fossil fuels that lead to carbon emissions into the environment. Not only this, but sustainable energy is replenishable in nature and considerably reduces the emission of greenhouse gases into the environment.
Biomass as a source of sustainable energy in cell technology
Biomass is increasingly and extensively being used as a source of sustainable energy and is also proving to be a boon to mankind as it is easily available and can be harnessed in a hassle-free manner. It also helps make the optimal use of biowaste for production of sustainable energy. The need for Graphene enabled sustainable energy can be comprehended well by understanding the extensive degradation that the usage of fossil fuels as a source of energy has caused on a global level.
Why are sustainable sources of energy important?
A wide range of countries have held onto the conventional methodologies for producing cells that have been proving to be expensive to use and yet do not offer the efficiency results as they should as per the costs of manufacture. These conventional sources of energy release a great amount of carbon dioxide into the air, ultimately contributing to the worldwide situation of global warming. Conventional Lithium-ion cells have been produced using processes that do not involve the utilization of biomass as a source of energy and are more harmful and less effective to be used on a wide scale.
Conclusion
It is important to address and furthermore accept the C6 Energy’s Graphene enabled cell technology for sustainable use and storage of energy, to prevent the adverse effects of harmful energy sources and gas emissions into the environment. Graphene is transforming the energy industry greatly and its journey as a source of sustainable energy has just begun. It is also becoming increasingly evident that Graphene and its related materials meets the energy needs of the present-day precisely and is a greener, renewable alternative to the conventional materials for developing new generation cell technology.
