A sustainable approach to energy storage in buildings: the first rechargeable geopolymer-based battery

This study presents a novel metakaolin-based geopolymer rechargeable battery with Zn as negative electrode and MnO<sub>2</sub> as positive electrode, demonstrating superior energy storage performance of about 3.3 W h L<sup>-1</sup>. Despite challenges, our findings highlight the potential for integrating energy storage into building materials, paving the way for sustainable infrastructure development.

Despite challenges, our findings highlight the potential for integrating energy storage into building materials, paving the way for sustainable infrastructure development.
