A breakthrough for renewable energy storage: Italian company GES has developed a manganese-hydrogen battery that could reshape the grid.
It costs just €0.02 per kWh per cycle—dramatically undercutting lithium-ion—while lasting 10,000 cycles at 75% efficiency. Commercial rollout expected in 2027.

GES rolls out manganese-hydrogen battery with significant cost edge over lithium-ion
The Italian company said the manganese-hydrogen battery it has developed represents an advanced solution for long-duration energy storage. The technology enables energy to be stored for many hours or even days, overcoming the structural limitations of lithium-ion batteries.

Revised January 8, 2026: Simulation of prosthetic vision with the PRIMA system and enhancement of face representation https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.11677 retinal implant

Simulation of prosthetic vision with PRIMA system and enhancement of face representation
Objective. Patients implanted with the PRIMA photovoltaic subretinal prosthesis in geographic atrophy report form vision with the average acuity matching the 100um pixel size. Although this remarkable outcome enables them to read and write, they report difficulty with perceiving faces. Despite the pixelated stimulation, patients see smooth patterns rather than dots. We present a novel, non-pixelated algorithm for simulating prosthetic vision, compare its predictions to clinical outcomes, and de…
