Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story:
- Over the past few years, scientists have developed new kinds of a multifunctional concrete, whether that be self-healing or carbon-sequestering.
- Now, a new study has made improvements on ways to turn giant slabs of concrete in batteries, which could help shore up storage solutions for renewable energy sources.
- To do this, scientists from MIT relied on a technique known as electron-conducting carbon concrete, or ec3.
