When we talk about energy storage and batteries, we often think of those devices which helps us to power our gadgets. So, we use batteries for mobile phones, laptops, but could we use batteries to power an entire building? Panasonic Company says “Yes”! They recently announced the launch of a lithium-ion storage battery for home use. After they bought 50% stake in Sanyo, Fumio Otsubo, president of Panasonic said: “We’ll be the first to bring to the market a storage battery for home use, which can store sufficient electricity for about one week of use”.
The company is very pleased with their latest achievements (was estimated that sales will be about 8.66 trillion yen next year). They say that this storage battery is more efficient compared to solar batteries for home use and fuel cells because it is able to store surplus renewable energy and use it to power your house with green electricity. Panasonic announced that this storage cell will be on the market by the end of 2011. Fumio Otsubo also said that Panasonic products will be accessible for middle-income people. “We will come up with products sought by middle-income people in such emerging countries as China and India, which haven’t been hit by deflationary pressure. We hope to introduce Sanyo products to Panasonic’s sales channels,” said Fumio Otsubo.
