Gum Power
Poor Singapore, chewing gum is banned in that country so I suppose they may never get to experience the Chewing Gum Battery Concept! It is a simple and innovative idea where paper battery is kept charged at a solar empowered dispensing station, and can be easily used for gadgets whose battery dies out unexpectedly. I suppose it is intended for tourist places or maybe college campus, but it sure is a neat way to get instant power.
Chewing Gum Battery is a 2012 iF Design Talents entry.
Designer: Ping-Yi Lin

Wait.. what?
I wish people would stop using the word “innovative” instead of “gibberish”

Wireless charging through dispensible batteries. Worst idea one can have for recharging. Much better to just swap the batteries. Saves you the inefficience of a battery-to-battery transfer on top of a wireless energy transfer on top of the recharging infrastructure pictured above.
