Abstract
A very high gravimetric energy and power density hydrogen ion based rechargeable battery, which stores hydrogen and oxygen in lightweight porous carbon electrodes with metalized current collectors, and which are separated by ionically permeable polymeric membranes containing a liquid electrolyte. The hydrogen and oxygen are produced by electrolysis of water in the battery during charging and the battery cells are enclosed in lightweight, metalized polymer housings of honeycomb construction. The battery is also very highly rechargeable due to the use of carbon and hydrogen.
