In the long-term use process, the performance of battery continues to decline. The capacity degeneration prediction of battery is crucial, which can effectively avoid some security risks. At present, most of the methods using fuzzy systems to predict battery capacity degeneration are based on historical capacity data, and these methods do not consider the variable charging and discharging conditions. Therefore, an improved adaptive neural fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) applied to random operating conditions is proposed in this paper, which is more suitable for practical application. Features are extracted from raw data and the initial system structure is determined by the correlation coefficients of the features. The fuzzy cluster center is obtained and optimized by fuzzy c-means (FCM) and adaptive particle filter. What's more, the activation mechanism is applied to reduce the number of fuzzy rules. The randomized battery dataset of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the temperature-varying dataset and the current-varying dataset of the Center for Advanced Life Cycle Engineering (CALCE) laboratory are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system, with the RMSE of 3.73 %, 4.09 % and 3.48 % respectively. Compared with the existing methods, the proposed system has higher accuracy and interpretability relatively.

The polysulfide-bromide flow battery (PSB) stands out as a promising option, owing to the availability of raw materials like sodium polysulfide and sodium bromide solutions, easily sourced from Southeast Asia. This investigation concentrates on the PSB, with the aim of inspecting the numerous factors that influence its charge behavior, subsequently affecting its discharging efficiency. Five critical parameters of charging process underwent investigation: reaction kinetics affected by applied current, mass transfer influenced by flow rate, stoichiometry impacted by electrolyte ratio, durability influenced by storage time, and concentration gradient influenced by electrolyte volume. This article also presented the influence of electrolyte stability during storage, which directly impacts the state of charge (SOC) of the PSB. The stability of electrolytes was monitored, with data collected at hourly intervals initially and subsequently at 10-hour intervals throughout the study period. The research examines the performance of PSB in comparison with the widely recognized Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB). The battery exhibited its highest performance when charged with a current of 0.15 A, a flow rate of 20 ml min−1, an electrolyte ratio of 1:1, and a volume of 50 ml. Under these conditions, the discharge efficiency was 19 % higher compared to the least favorable condition.

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) can benefit from a deep understanding of the electrochemical reaction mechanism of cathode materials, which can assist in resolving issues such as cathode dissolution and electrostatic interactions. We reported a straightforward two-step synthesis of polydopamine coated MnO2 (MnO2@PDA) and revealed the energy storage mechanisms in AZIBs. The layered structure of MnO2 creates a generous passage for the insertion of H+/Zn2+ ions. Simultaneously, the plethora of functional groups within PDA exerts a robust desolvation effect, bolstering the transfer rate of H+/Zn2+. This effect significantly enhances the overall efficiency and performance of cathode. The AZIBs, incorporating MnO2@PDA cathode material, consequently exhibit a satisfactory cycling capacity (412 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A g−1) and a superb specific energy (561.6 Wh kg−1 at 136.34 W kg−1). This work provides a new path for design strategies and catalytic mechanisms of MnO2@PDA cathode.

Composite phase change material was filled into louvers, which could solve the energy consumption issues caused by the use of ordinary glass windows and traditional louvers in buildings. In this work, modified water hyacinth carbon based composite phase change material was prepared by freeze drying and high temperature pyrolysis methods, the effective load rate, relative enthalpy efficiency, and energy storage efficiency are 65.56 %, 81.95 %, and 99.1 %, respectively. It was filled into hollow louvers and a phase change louver model was constructed, which was applied in glass windows for measurement. The phase change louver stored a lot of heat while blocking heat. When the illumination distance is 15 cm and 30 cm, the peak temperature of the center of the louver was 25.219 °C and 28.918 °C. Compared with the traditional shutter model, the temperature is decreased by 1.914 °C and 1.810 °C respectively, indicating it has a synergistic effect of shading and energy storage temperature control, and phase change louver has the effect of delaying temperature rise and fall, which can reduce temperature fluctuations and improve the thermal comfort of the environment. Therefore, biomass carbon based phase change energy storage materials are expected to be sustainably utilized in the field of building energy conservation.

CAES technology provides large-scale clean energy storage of electric energy and enhances the spatio-temporal structure of power generation and utilization. The airtightness of salt caverns is essential for the economic viability of CAES systems. In this paper, a thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) model is proposed for assessing the airtightness of CAES salt caverns in bedded rock salt. The accuracy of the model was verified using field data. Furthermore, the permeability and porosity of the rock salt and interlayer in the target cavern section were measured based on the Yunying salt district as the engineering background, and a 3D geomechanical model was established. The variations in temperature and pressure in the cavern were analyzed. Meanwhile, the seepage range, pore pressure, safety factor, and leakage amount of the JD5 and JD6 well groups under different cases within 1 year of operation were explored. The results indicate that the permeability magnitudes of rock salt and interlayer are on the order of magnitudes of 10−18 m2 and 10−19 m2. The interlayer serves as the primary channel for air leakage. When the permeability of the interlayer is lower than 1 × 10−18 m2, the percentage of air leakage from the CAES salt cavern is less than 1 %, and the JD5 and JD6 well groups exhibit excellent airtightness. When evaluating the airtightness of CAES salt caverns, the mass percentage of air leakage, pore pressure, and stability are recommended to be considered together. This study provides references for future airtightness evaluations of CAES projects in salt caverns.

Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) are widely used in energy storage systems due to their large storage capacity and stable performance. As one of the critical components of VRFBs to provide the reaction sites for redox couples, an ideal electrode should possess excellent conductivity, electrochemical and chemical stability, good reaction kinetics, and a low price. Due to their favorable properties, carbon-based materials such as graphite felt (GF) and carbon paper (CP) are widely used as VRFB electrodes. However, these electrodes suffer from poor electrochemical activity towards VO2+/VO2+ and V2+/V3+ redox couples, caused by sluggish kinetics and high polarization, limiting the operation of VRFB at high current density. Specifically, the negative electrode is performance-limiting due to the V2+/V3+ reaction overlapping with the potential range of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), further hindering performance. Researchers have developed different strategies to improve the performance of VRFB electrodes towards the V2+/V3+ reaction. Here, the leading causes of capacity losses in VRFB towards the V2+/V3+ reaction, including the undesirable side reactions, such as the HER and degradation of carbon materials, are briefly reviewed. The electrochemical kinetics, the mechanism, and the role of surface functional groups on carbon electrodes are highlighted. The general phenomena, mechanisms, and methods of HER inhibition in the negative electrode are also reviewed. Furthermore, approaches to improve the performance in the negative half-cell of VRFB are outlined. Finally, the ongoing challenges to improve the performance of electrode materials towards the V2+/V3+ reaction are identified, and future research directions are proposed.

Supercapacitors stand out due to their high specific capacitance, power density, longevity, and environmental friendliness. Nowadays, LDH is one of the most researched and used electrode materials for supercapacitors. This paper describes the one-step hydrothermal synthesis of Nickel-Cobalt-Zinc layered double hydroxide (NiCoZn-LDH) at 150 °C for 15 h. The XRD analysis verified the formation of the NiCoZn-LDH structure while the SEM investigation revealed the surface morphology. The electrochemical behavior of the NiCoZn-LDH was evaluated in a three-electrode configuration to study the performance of the half-cell. For elucidating the practical applications, a two-electrode system was constructed with activated carbon (AC) as the anode material and NiCoZn-LDH as the cathode material to create the asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC). The ASC has been studied in a mixed electrolyte of 6 M potassium hydroxide (KOH) and 0.01 M Potassium ferricyanide (K3[Fe(CN)6]), which showed better results compared to pristine 6 M KOH. With the highest energy and power densities of 24.51 W h/kg and 121.53 W/kg, the two-electrode system produces the maximum specific capacitance of 176.5 F/g at a current density of 0.3 mA/cm2. Additionally, the electrodes show a remarkable coulombic efficiency of 100 % after 1000 cycles at the high current density of 5 mA/cm2.

The country approved 110 pumped storage power stations with a total installed capacity of 148.901 gigawatts, which is 2.8 times the capacity approved during the “13th Five-Year Plan” period. China has completed 70.90 % of the total capacity target of 210 gigawatts for key implementation projects during the “14th Five-Year Plan”. Pumped storage power stations in Central China are typical for their large capacity, large number of approved pumped storage power stations and rapid approval. This paper analyzes the development of pumped storage power stations in Central China, focusing on regional approval, investment ownership, design units and cost analysis. It summarizes the current development mode and provides an analysis of pumped storage development in both Central China and China as a whole. The relevant situation is of great significance for promoting the construction of pumped storage power stations and for the construction and optimization of modern power systems.

Inducing Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets to self-assemble into three-dimensional aerogels is an effective strategy to solve their accumulation and improve the performance of supercapacitors. However, MXene aerogels are prone to collapse in practical applications due to their low mechanical strength. Here, the low-cost melamine sponge (MS), which adsorbs Mg2+ ions on the skeleton surface serves as a support and induces the gelation of MXene nanosheets and microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) mixed solution to form composite hydrogels, and thereby obtaining MXene composite aerogels with high loading mass and mechanical strength. The experimental results show that the Mg-10%MFMX@MS aerogel has the largest area capacitance of 685.77 mF cm−2 at a scan rate of 10 mV s−1. Thanks to its excellent three-dimensional structure, even at a high scan rate of 1000 mV s−1, the area capacitance is still 497.41 mF cm−2, and the capacity retention rate is 72.53 %, showing high-rate performance. It is worth noting that the constructed asymmetric activated carbon supercapacitors achieved high energy densities of 128.78 μWh cm−2 and 101.15 μWh cm−2 at 850 μW cm−2 and 17,000 μW cm−2, respectively. In addition, the asymmetric supercapacitor has high cycling stability and a capacity retention rate of 115 % after 10,000 cycles. This work provides a feasible strategy for fabricating Ti3C2Tx MXene aerogels with high-rate performance and high strength.
