A solar battery is a rechargeable battery developed in 2014 by researchers at Ohio State University. The researchers have created a dye-sensitized solar cell that stores its own power by breathing air to decompose and re-form lithium peroxide. Its creators believe the device, which effectively combines a battery and a solar cell in one, could reduce renewable energy costs by 25 percent.
