NETL has developed low-cost Na-based cathodes such as NaFePO 4 and Na 3 Fe 2 (PO 4 ) 3 that potentially can be used in large-scale energy storage systems. NETL researchers are also exploring ways to improve lithium-ion batteries. Mg-based electrolytes and other ionic electrolytes have also been developed and are being tested.

TREV is a range extender system that uses a micro-turbine (fueled either by liquid or gaseous fuels) to generate electricity that charges a battery pack. The battery powers the motors that drive the wheels. Performance specs for the TREV include peak power of 768 kW (1,030 bhp), with a projected 0 - 100 km/h time of 2.5
