The 2015 $500,000 Lemelson-MIT Prize has gone to Jay Whitacre for his invention of the Aqueous Hybrid Ion (AHI) battery. The battery, used primarily in combination with solar and wind energy systems, was created using abundant and non-toxic resources including salt water and carbon. Whitacre, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University’s College of Engineering, is also the founder of Aquion Energy, which manufacture and sell the battery in several countries worldwide.
