🇨🇳CHINA UNVEILS MINI NUCLEAR BATTERY WITH 50-YEAR POWER SUPPLY
Beijing-based Betavolt has developed a nuclear battery that delivers continuous power for up to 50 years without needing a charge.
Measuring smaller than a coin, it uses Nickel-63 isotopes to generate electricity, making it ideal for drones, AI equipment, medical devices, and microprocessors.
Unlike traditional batteries, Betavolt’s design is safe, non-explosive, and eco-friendly, with the decayed isotope converting to non-radioactive copper.
The company aims to launch a 1-watt version by late 2025.
Betavolt joins a growing nuclear energy race, competing with City Labs' NanoTritium batteries in the U.S., which also offer decades of power for low-energy devices.
