Sugar batteries have the potential to operate three to four times
longer on a single charge than conventional lithium ion batteries."Each
cell gives a voltage of about 0.75V, but has three or four times the
energy density of a typical battery, so the battery will last much
longer.
Minteer has spent 18 months working on the project with a further three
to five years of work needed before commercial exploitation. Her plan
is to develop a mobile phone charger similar to the quick chargers
currently available but with slot-in sugar solution cartridges
providing the power.
