As the representative of aqueous rechargeable batteries, lead-acid batteries have been widely applied with advantages of intrinsic safety and low cost. However, lead-acid batteries have some critical shortcomings, such as low energy density (30–50 Wh kg −1) with large volume and mass, and high toxicity of lead [11, 12].
However, according to Burz, Enzinc tackled this issue head-on with a microsponge structure, massively increasing the surface area of the zinc anode. This innovation addressed the problem and led to a significantly higher energy density, making zinc batteries a viable solution for contemporary applications.

Burz explained, “Historically, zinc was relegated to disposable batteries because it formed dendrites, damaging stalactite-like needles that cut batteries' lives when they were repeatedly recharged.” However, according to Burz, Enzinc tackled this issue head-on with a microsponge structure, massively increasing the surface area of the zinc anode.
Burz explains that while lithium-ion batteries have dominated the market, their dependence on lithium, a material with restricted global reserves and processing primarily controlled by China, poses national security risks. Zinc, on the other hand, offers a promising alternative. It's abundant, widely distributed, and cost-effective.

Generally speaking, low-temperature lithium-ion batteries have lower internal resistance and higher energy density than ordinary lithium-ion batteries, and also have better cold resistance and cycle life.
Low-temperature batteries may sacrifice some capacity or energy density to maintain performance in cold environments. In contrast, standard batteries typically offer higher capacity and energy density under normal operating conditions. Standard batteries may perform better in moderate temperatures but struggle in colder climates.
This superior low-temperature battery performance was mainly attributed to the unique solvation structure of the obtain superelectrolyte. However, this electrolyte goes for the cells at very low area capacity of 1.2 mAh cm −2, which is much lower than that (5 mAh cm −2) of commercialized lithium batteries at room temperature.
In general, there are four threats in developing low-temperature lithium batteries when using traditional carbonate-based electrolytes: 1) low ionic conductivity of bulk electrolyte, 2) increased resistance of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), 3) sluggish kinetics of charge transfer, 4) slow Li diffusion throughout bulk electrodes.
Whilst there have been several studies documenting performance of individual battery chemistries at low temperature; there is yet to be a direct comparative study of different electrochemical energy storage methods that addresses energy, power and transient response at different temperatures.

Any chilled water cooling system may be a good application for thermal ice storage. The system operation and components are similar to a conventional chilled water system. The main difference is that thermal ice storage systems are designed with the ability to manage energy use based on the time-of-day rather than the cooling requirements.
The integration of cold energy storage in cooling system is an effective approach to improve the system reliability and performance. This review provides an overview and recent advances of the cold thermal energy storage (CTES) in refrigeration cooling systems and discusses the operation control for system optimization.
Cold thermal energy storage (CTES) technology has an important role to play by storing cold and releasing it at a right time . CTES technology generally refers to the storage of cold energy in a storage medium at a temperature below the nominal temperature of space or the operating temperature of an appliance .
The system structure is simple, environmentally friendly and energy saving. However, the cooling capacity is relatively unstable. The active cooling system with CTES requires input for system operation. The cold storage unit is coupled with a refrigeration system consisting of a compressor, a condenser, and a throttle valve.
Schematic Flow Diagrams and System Control Strategy The design options for ice storage systems are unlimited. These basic flow schematics and control strategies are fundamental guidelines that could be applied to 99% of thermal ice storage projects. Individual projects with unique characteristics may require more creative designs.
But by optimizing the operation strategy, it is also able to reduce energy consumption and further improve the stability of the system, thus achieving energy saving and emission reduction. The operation of the cooling system with CTES is mainly used to keep the balance between the energy supply and the cold load demand.
Cold temperatures can cause changes in the physical properties of these components, affecting their stability and durability. Moreover, humidity fluctuations are another critical factor.
At low temperatures (<0 °C), decrease in energy storage capacity and power can have a significant impact on applications such as electric vehicles, unmanned aircraft, spacecraft and stationary power storage.
The performance of electrochemical energy storage technologies such as batteries and supercapacitors are strongly affected by operating temperature.
As the performance and variety of potential usages for electrochemical energy storage increases, so does the variety of climates into which the technology is deployed. At low temperature (<0 °C) reduced electrolyte conductivity and poor ion diffusivity can lead to a significant reduction in the capacity and performance of batteries .
Reduced low temperature battery capacity is problematic for battery electric vehicles, remote stationary power supplies, telephone masts and weather stations operating in cold climates, where temperatures can fall to −40 °C.
Whilst there have been several studies documenting performance of individual battery chemistries at low temperature; there is yet to be a direct comparative study of different electrochemical energy storage methods that addresses energy, power and transient response at different temperatures.
In this work nine different electrochemical energy storage technologies are directly compared in terms of capacity, volumetric and gravimetric energy density, maximum power output and transient response (through EIS) as a function of temperature from +20 °C to −70 °C.

In response to these challenges, intelligent environmental control systems in plant factories offer a promising solution by integrating advanced technologies, such as sensors, automation, and artificial intelligence (AI), to precisely monitor and control environmental factors like temperature, humidity, light, and nutrient levels.
The utilization of natural energy-like sunlight and wind in the production system of plant factories more easily enables a shift from the conventional power supply system to a more sustainable system.
Modern plant factories with effective application of complicated sensing systems, automation equipment, and AI can have strong control over important environmental factors like photoperiod, temperature, relative humidity, nutrient solution, and CO 2 concentration.
Automated control systems adjust ventilation, irrigation, and lighting based on sensor data to optimize growing conditions. A feedback loop continuously informs adjustments, while a user interface allows remote monitoring and control via smartphones or computers, ensuring optimal plant growth and maximizing yield quality.
When combined with systems such as an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) or the IoT, greenhouses can effectively regulate their environment, including perfect CO₂ control for plant photosynthesis (Soheli et al. 2022).
