As the energy storage device combined different charge storage mechanisms, HESD has both characteristics of battery-type and capacitance-type electrode, it is therefore critically important to realize a perfect matching between the positive and negative electrodes.
Batteries. A battery is an electrochemical cell or series of cells that produces an electric current. In principle, any galvanic cell could be used as a battery. An ideal battery would never run down, produce an unchanging voltage, and be capable of withstanding environmental extremes of heat and humidity.

Intermediate temperature NaCl–AlCl3-based Al-ion batteries are considered as a promising stationary energy storage system due to their low cost, high safety, etc. However, such a cheap electrolyte has a critical feature, i.e., strong corrosion, which results in the short cycle life of the conventional Al-metal anode and also limits the development of the NaCl–AlCl3 …
An electrode is the electrical part of a cell and consists of a backing metallic sheet with active material printed on the surface. In a battery cell we have two electrodes: Anode – the negative or reducing electrode that releases electrons to the external circuit and oxidizes during and electrochemical reaction. Cathode – the positive ...

Because galvanic cells can be self-contained and portable, they can be used as batteries and fuel cells. A battery (storage cell) is a galvanic cell (or a series of galvanic cells) that contains all the reactants needed to produce electricity. In contrast, a fuel cell is a galvanic cell that requires a constant external supply of one or more reactants to generate electricity.
