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
