WATERLOO —
A professor at the University of Waterloo received $250,000 in funding for his low-cost, long-
Long lasting battery.
Chen Zhongwei, a professor of chemical engineering, is one of six people who accept e-commerce. W. R.
Earlier this week, the Steacie Memorial Fellowship from the Canadian Natural Science and Engineering Research Council was presented at a ceremony in Rideau Hall, Ottawa.
"We are mainly trying to develop smaller, lighter and more powerful battery and fuel cell technologies," Chen said on Wednesday . ".
He plans to use the grant to expand his engineering graduate team and continue his research on materials that can improve battery power, while reducing costs by reducing dependence on expensive metals.
The money also means he can take a break from teaching.
"This also gives me more opportunities to work hard," Chen said . ".
"It's a very good thing to push this technology forward.
"Chen is working on batteries for portable electronics, vehicles and energy storage systems.
"These technologies are limited by batteries," he said . "
He worked with GM's global R & D center to produce a patented technology for siliconbased lithium-
The energy of the ion battery is 10 times that of the conventional graphite battery, giving more charging time to the electronics and allowing the electric vehicle to travel further.
He is also working on rechargeable zinc batteries with low cost, safety and environmental protection.
Chen's startup, WatTech Power Inc.
A rechargeable battery is being commercialized to capture renewable energy sources including solar and wind energy.
"The electricity is unstable because it depends on the weather," Chen said . ".
If you store electricity, you can turn it into reliable and valuable energy.
During the high cost period, additional electricity can be stored for use, saving money and reducing carbon dioxide emissions.
In areas with frequent power outages, it can provide reliable backup power.
"Stronger batteries will change the way we produce and store renewable energy, which will enable the world to find meaningful alternatives to fossil fuels," Feridun hamdulla, president and vice president of UW
The prime minister said at a press conference.
"This is a good example of the high quality research that Waterloo is doing," he said . ".
