The specific energy of these batteries can be as high as 400 Wh/kg, which enables their use as reserve energy sources in remote areas. Aluminum-air batteries with high energy and power densities were described in the early 1960s. However, practical commercialization never began because this system presents some critical technological limitations.
Chaopeng Fu, in Energy Storage Materials, 2022 Rechargeable aluminum-ion (Al-ion) batteries have been highlighted as a promising candidate for large-scale energy storage due to the abundant aluminum reserves, low cost, high intrinsic safety, and high theoretical energy density.
Aluminum, being the Earth's most abundant metal, has come to the forefront as a promising choice for rechargeable batteries due to its impressive volumetric capacity. It surpasses lithium by a factor of four and sodium by a factor of seven, potentially resulting in significantly enhanced energy density.
Aluminum batteries are considered compelling electrochemical energy storage systems because of the natural abundance of aluminum, the high charge storage capacity of aluminum of 2980 mA h g−1/8046 mA h cm−3, and the sufficiently low redox potential of Al3+/Al. Several electrochemical storage technologies based on aluminum have been proposed so far.
