A Japanese inventor unveils what he calls the "next generation of eco-friendly energy sources" - batteries powered by water. Susumu Suzuki, the president of Tokyo-based building material maker TSC (Total System Conductor), has invented water-powered batteries, which have an electric current as powerful as that of a standard manganese dioxide battery. Suzuki says these batteries would be cheap to produce and can be recycled several times, making them an essential tool for the future. FEATURED SPEAKER: Susumu Suzuki, President of TSC and inventor of the water-powered battery (Japanese) Joanna Partridge, Reuters

Since everyone here seems to have no chemistry knowledge I'll clarify how this works. These batteries are not powered by water; they are activated by it. Water functions as a catalyst for one of the two compounds that would remain otherwise inert, and after its power is used, it won't work again no matter how much water you add to it. The advantage of these batteries is a much longer expiration date, making them more reliable for disaster survival kits that might be stored for years.
