Researchers may have found a way to create a nuclear waste battery that could theoretically run for decades without needing to recharge.

Scientists recently developed a novel battery technology that can use atomic or nuclear waste to convert electricity.

The team tested the battery prototype with cesium-137 and cobalt-60, common radioactive byproducts of nuclear reactors. Using cesium-137, the battery produced 288 nanowatts of power, while cobalt-60 ...
