Magnesium organic batteries represent an advanced solution for a new generation of battery systems made from environmentally sustainable materials. The energy density of magnesium and organic compounds and the difference in their redox potential provides an attractive galvanic cell with reversible performance. The problem with magnesium-organic batteries is capacity utilisation due to several kinetic barriers. In the thesis, the influence of the cathode, anode, and electrolyte on the kinetics of the battery was systematically studied using electrochemical methods. We used the pulse method, where current pulses of different magnitudes are applied at a given discharge rate and the voltage change is measured as a function of time.
