Deleted attachment from comment #8. I had unwittingly produced SVGs containing PNG (non-scalable) :)
But regardless, I don't think squaring the icons or modifying gnome-shell to accept non-square is the answer. Because even after you fix the aspect ratio, the Ubuntu mono battery icons still look bad. The reason seems to be that Gnome Shell allocates less space for them than Unity7 does. So they get scaled down in Gnome Shell (smaller and blurrier than Unity7). You never get to see all 24x24 pixels in Gnome Shell at scaling factor 1.0.
So there are really only two options to solve this bug properly:
1. Design new battery icons that are readable at smaller sizes than we're used to in Unity7; or
2. Use some existing battery icons that do look good in Gnome Shell (like Adwaita's).
