Overall, it is obvious that research on ZIB technology, aided by good engineering, can demonstrate better performance, economic and environmental advantages
than the present-day Pb-acid and Ni-Cd batteries. The ZIBs clearly hold the benefit
to serve the demands for green and sustainable energy storage in modern society.
