The US Department of Energy (DOE) will award $42 million to 12 projects to strengthen the domestic supply chain for advanced batteries that power electric vehicles (EVs). Project K is developing and commercializing a potassium-ion battery, which operates similarly to Li-ion batteries. Award amount: $3,198,085).

F 0.7 , for sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries (NIBs). While high-energy Li-ion batteries (LIBs) are expected to contribute in part to the solution, the high cost and low stability prohibit wide application in this area, the researchers observe. In a prior study, they developed a new Li-ion battery electrode—Li 1.1

Prototype sodium silicate hydrogen generation system as presented earlier this year at DOE merit review. The H300 utilizes real-time swappable cartridges that generate hydrogen on demand using SiGNa’s proprietary sodium silicide (NaSi) powder. Sodium-Silica-Gel: 2Na-SG + H 2 O → H 2 + Na 2 Si 2 O 5.
