Abstract

New type of the energy carrier include magnesium-ion batteries, which represents potentially more effective and ecologically safe alternative to existing storage technologies. The main types of anode, cathode and electrolyte materials for magnesium-ion batteries, ensuring efficient transfer of Mg2+ cations and possible cyclic durability, are considered. In the article advantages and disadvantages of this technology, its potential for application in different areas also are analyzed.
