"About a decade ago, Professor Thomas Nann realized the key to achieving a zero
carbon economy was not renewably generating electricity, which was already well
on its way to undercutting fossil fuels, but rather energy storage – figuring
out how to make these clean electrons dispatchable, able to be summoned on
demand.
Professor Nann is today the Head of the School of Mathematical and Physical
Sciences at the University of Newcastle but became a chemist in his homeland,
Germany.
In April, he launched startup Allegro Energy with two of his former students,
Fraser Hughson and Rohan Borah. The startup seeks to commercialize its
microemulsion battery electrolyte which, although mostly water by mass, has
overcome the voltage limitations that typically hinder water-based solutions."
