FAQS 4

Are rechargeable magnesium batteries a viable energy storage solution?

Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) are gaining attention as promising energy storage solutions due to their high volumetric capacity (3833 mAh/cm 3), inherent safety from dendrite-free anodes, cost-effectiveness (∼$2/kg), and environmental sustainability [1, 5, 150].

Are rechargeable magnesium batteries better than lithium-ion batteries?

Rechargeable magnesium batteries hold numerous advantages over current lithium-ion batteries, namely the relative abundance of magnesium to lithium and the potential for magnesium batteries to greatly outperform their Li-ion counterparts.

Is magnesium a good battery?

Magnesium's volumetric capacity enables compact battery designs, potentially extending driving ranges. Selenium-based cathodes achieve up to 608 Wh/kg, while scalable materials like CuS and MgFeSiO 4 deliver 300–330 Wh/kg, rivaling high-end lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) [55, 69, 91].

What is the energy density of a rechargeable magnesium battery?

12.1. Energy density and power Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) excel in volumetric energy density; for instance, MgFeSiO 4 cathodes deliver over 300 mAh/g at 2.4 V vs. Mg/Mg 2+ (at 1C and 25 °C), yielding an energy density of 720 Wh/L, comparable to the 700 Wh/L of commercial lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) [55, 105].
