Stanford researchers have developed a sodium-ion battery (SIB) that can store the same amount of energy as a state-of-the-art lithium ion, at substantially lower cost. Thus, further research is required to find better sodium host materials. The sodium salt makes up the cathode; the anode is made up of phosphorous.

But the promise is worth pursuing, says MIT Professor Yet-Ming Chiang, because the amount of energy that can be stored in experimental versions of such cells is already nearly double that of conventional lithium-ion batteries. The next step was to replicate that performance with an actual lithium-containing electrode.

Researchers led by a team from MIT, with colleagues from Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), BMW Group, and Tokyo Institute of Technology have developed a fundamentally new approach to alter ion mobility and stability against oxidation of lithium ion conductors—a key component of rechargeable batteries—using lattice dynamics.

EVs reduce carbon emissions and dependence on fossil fuels, but the lithium-ion batteries that power them suffer from an image problem. Although they’re less likely to catch fire than internal combustion engine vehicles, Li-ion battery fires burn hotter, faster and longer than gasoline fires. New Technology; New Advances.

The price of the lithium-ion batteries used in the EVs is the main culprit for the high initial cost of any electric vehicle in any part of the world. To substitute cobalt, several companies are experimenting with sulphur, sodium, and magnesium. 101,470, Some of them cost even more. The new Bajaj Chetak will cost you more than

Startups have this innate potential to take up an idea and converting it into a viable business plan then scaling it into a massive success. The company also produces low-cost lithium-ion scooters, which they displayed at the Auto Expo 2020. Whenever the world is shaken by new technology, it is most probably by a start-up.

With the help of this concept, lithium-ion batteries could be produced more rapidly and at lower cost. In lithium-ion batteries, the coating and subsequent drying of electrodes cause most of the battery production costs. The results are reported in an open-access paper in the journal Energy Technology.
