New Sony Battery runs on….sugar? 


That’s correct, Sony’s new eco-friendly battery runs on sugar. The casing is made from vegetable based plastic and uses a sugar solution to create ENERGY!

QUOTE
“Battery test cells have generated up to 50 milliwatts, or enough electricity to power music playback on a memory-type Walkman. Sony said in a statement released in Japan on Thursday that the output is the highest for a bio battery of this type. The battery generates electricity through the use of enzymes that break down carbohydrates, which is essentially sugar. Sony has increased battery output by efficiently immobilizing enzymes and the electronic conduction materials, while retaining enzyme activity at the anode, an electrode through which positive electric current flows into a polarized device. (informationweek)”


Check out the video below. A new age of energy is so very close!

sony is sucking up to green peace IMO....hmmm last week they announce recycling program this week sugar batteries...

Not that its that far fetched sugar makes energy pretty easily, we use it in our bodies everyday.
