The solar energy harvested by the cell is directly captured by the battery, which uses liquid electrolytes to store energy in chemical form.<\/p>\n<p>This solar-flow battery converts, stores and releases the solar energy in the form of electricity, achieving a record efficiency of 14.1%. The researchers suggest that further improvements to the battery are possible, which could open the door for the utilization and storage of solar energy at sites that are not connected to the electrical grid.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article__sidebar\">\n<p class=\"article-item__original-research strong\"><a class=\"serif\" href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/j.chempr.2018.08.023\" data-track=\"click\" data-track-label=\"original research\"><u><i>Chem<\/i>\u00a0(2018)<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; 14.1% \ud6a8\uc728\uc758 \ud0dc\uc591\uc804\uc9c0\uac00 \uac1c\ubc1c\ub418\uc5c8\uad70\uc694.
