According to Forbes on Friday, a rechargeable battery from Harvard could prove to be competition for Tesla's Powerwall. The report states that "...by replacing a corrosive and toxic component with a compound commonly used as a food additive, chemists have come up with renewable energy storage technology that they report is safe to use in homes and businesses. A new study suggests the best way to reduce carbon emissions may not be through direct government action, but rather by encouraging people to eat less meat.

Should the design prove scalable, the researchers say it has the potential to top lithium batteries such as the Powerwall from Tesla Motors in terms of cost as well as length of time it could operate at peak power..."
