Graphite contains flat layers of carbon atoms, and during battery charging, lithium atoms are stored between these layers in a process called intercalation. These nanodots, roughly 10 nanometers wide, were connected to the MXene’s layers by carbon materials. A paper on their work is published in the journal Small. —Bayhan et al.

A decade ago it became possible to get your electricity in the UK from a department store chain (though with the actual power supplied first by a Scottish utility and— as of 2018 —arranged and managed by Octopus Energy). Newer entrants, potential energy powerhouses, are on the rise in Italy, Spain and Denmark.
