Unlike other devices, the team’s is the first to utilize oxygen anions (negatively-charged ions) instead of cations (positive ions) to store its energy. The device uses a perovskite material (LaMnO 3 ), a structure containing vacant sites where oxygen anions can be stored, making these advancements a possibility.

The hydrogen gas produced in the summer will be stored and converted into electricity and heat in the winter. The hydrogen gas produced in the summer can be stored in an underground pressure vessel until winter.

In a region known for long, dark winter nights, Polar Night Energy is building a system in the city of Tampere that can heat buildings with stored solar energy — all day, all night, and all winter long. This means that storing and distributing energy is as important as its generation. The apparent contradictions do not end there.
