Univ. of Texas researchers propose lithium- or sodium-water batteries as next generation of high-capacity battery technology; applicable for EVs and grid storage

Green Car Congress

John Goodenough, are proposing a strategy for high-capacity next-generation alkali (lithium or sodium)-ion batteries using water-soluble redox couples as the cathode. The cell operates without a catalyst and has high storage efficiency. The present sodium-sulfur battery operates above 300 °C. V and charges at 4.2-4.4
