[SINGAPORE] Sustainable alternatives are often more expensive or come with compromises in terms of functionality, but one Singapore company is trying to buck the trend with a unique product – paper batteries. Deep-tech startup Flint produces batteries made of cellulose – the key ingredient in paper production, hence their name – that are priced competitively with their lithium-based counterparts. Their performance is also comparable.   These paper batteries can be used in devices such as keyboards, computer mice and wearables. The carbon footprint for manufacturing each one is around 30 per cent smaller than that for a conventional battery.   https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/singapore/singapore-deep-tech-startup-believes-its-paper-batteries-are-important-part-global-clean-energy (ICE SINGAPORE)
