		<description><![CDATA[Sharp, partnering with battery specialist Eliiy Power, will soon start selling the world&#8217;s first storage battery for household electricity systems. These new batteries will allow houses with solar panels to store the power generated by the sun overnight (a full day and a half if necessary), allowing them to operate independently of a power grid.

		<description><![CDATA[Cell phones might soon have the ability to predict when they&#8217;ll be plugged in and could even intelligently estimate how many calls a user is likely to make over a period of time, based on findings in a paper[pdf] by researchers at Intel and Rutgers University. They would then use that information to provide better [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy and the University of California at Berkeley have recently discovered a new way of making silicon into a better thermal conductor for turning even small amounts of heat into electricity. Unfortunately, they don&#8217;t quite know why it works. No matter, though, as the finding could one day free [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Coming from Australia&#8217;s CSIRO, &#8220;The UltraBattery is a hybrid energy storage device that integrates a supercapacitor with a lead acid battery in one unit cell.&#8221; Translation: a battery which is cheaper, lasts longer, and provides more power. The battery is aimed at use in hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). So exactly how much better is this [...]]]></description>
