Researchers have developed a supercapacitor material using single atoms of lead that can operate at a much higher voltage in water without causing electrolysis, achieving an energy density of 38.67 Wh/kg. This overcomes a major limitation of aqueous energy storage, paving the way for safer, higher-energy batteries.

A new model shows that geothermal heat production in sedimentary rock layers can cause minor earthquakes, but the risk is significantly lowered by stable underground conditions and limiting how much the rock is cooled. This provides a clearer framework for assessing and managing seismic safety in geothermal projects.
