Affordable Energy Storage Sodium Store 
Green Car Congress
MARCH 25, 2022
One of the more promising candidates for batteries beyond the current standard of lithium-ion materials is the sodium-ion (Na-ion) battery. Na-ion is particularly attractive because of the greater abundance and lower cost of sodium compared with lithium. In addition, when cycled at high voltage (4.5

RAL researchers are proposing a new process for the decomposition of ammonia to release hydrogen that involves the stoichiometric decomposition and formation of sodium amide from Na metal. Indeed, high-density, affordable, and efficient hydrogen storage is one of the key steps in the realization of a hydrogen-based energy sector.
