Germany has transformed a former nuclear power site into one of the world’s most advanced grid-scale energy storage systems, marking a major shift in how countries can repurpose old energy infrastructure. Instead of producing nuclear power, the site now functions as a massive battery, storing clean electricity from wind and solar farms and releasing it back into the grid when needed. • The project uses a sophisticated combination of lithium-ion storage units and advanced grid-management software

Germany has introduced a breakthrough salt-air battery that could redefine the future of global clean energy. This innovative battery can operate for decades, store large amounts of power, and does it all without using lithium. Made from simple, abundant materials like salt, carbon, and air, it is far safer, more affordable, and easier to recycle than traditional lithium-ion batteries. It does not overheat, does not depend on scarce minerals, and maintains performance for years with minimal degr
