A rechargeable battery with a plate structure consists of a cathode electrode, an anode electrode and an electrolyte. The cathode electrode includes a current collector, cathode active materials, a binder and a conductive agent. The cathode active material is preferably selected from lithium and/or sodium intercalation compounds. The anode electrode includes an electrode plate, which is electrically conductive and electrochemically inert. The electrolyte consists of a solution of metal salts. The solution can consist of water, ethanol, methanol or mixture thereof. The metal salts consist of at least one of metal ion, which can be reduced and deposited onto the surface of the anode plate during charging, and oxidized and dissolved into the electrolyte during discharging. |
