Air-fueled Battery Could Last Up To 10 Times Longer: Ground-breaking Technology For Electric Cars

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/05/090517152557.htm


A new type of battery has the capability to hold up to ten times more storage than current designs. This is made possibly because it is an air-fuelled battery. This new design can improve performance and the renewable energy industry. This battery will use energy from the wind and from the sun. Since there are no chemicals in the battery, there is more space to be used for energy. These batteries will be cheaper than the rechargeable's that we use now. With this new battery, we will be able to be more resourceful.

3- written well
- useful information
- undertsandable
2- talk more about design battery
- explain more about how battery works
1- did not knwo that batteries could be made using sun energy

This summary was very interesting and well written. Also, it pertained to the topics we learned about in class recently.
Somethings that could be improved on are the flow of the summary. It is well written, but it somewhat pauses every sentence. Also, I would like to know what the battery is called and who is working on it.
One thing I learned from this summary and article is that this new battery will improve performance and the renewable energy industry. Even with that change the battery will be cheaper than the present ones.

3 Things I liked
-Due to our environmental struggle with global warming this is a relevant topic, which makes it an interesting one to read about.
-The article is written very short, sweet and "to the point"
-The way the article is written makes it very easy to understand the message the author is trying to convey.

2) things I felt could have been done better.
-The article though "short and to the point" has very little substance to it. There was hardly anything to read.
-I would have liked further explanation on how the battery works.

1) It is interesting to learn that advancements are being made in the battery market to not only allow the absorption of power from the sun, but from wind as well. Furthermore having such a battery be available for common use makes it even more fascinating.
