| Abstract | NONTECHNICAL SUMMARY Lithium-ion batteries, with their high-energy density, high-discharge voltage, and relatively low cost, have been the battery of choice for a wide variety of applications, including portable consumer electronics, hybrid- and all-electric cars, and grid-scale energy storage. However, these batteries also come with drawbacks: potential safety issues and growing concerns regarding the availability of lithium and of the cathode materials. As an alternative, zinc-ion-based batter |
