In October 2008, Xcel began testing a one-megawatt sodium-sulfur (NaS) battery ( earlier post ) to demonstrate its ability to store wind energy and move it to the electricity grid when needed. They are able to store about 7.2 megawatt-hours of electricity, with a charge/discharge capacity of one megawatt.

It’s been known that dendrites form more rapidly when the current flow is higher—which is generally desirable in order to allow rapid charging. So far, the current densities that have been achieved in experimental solid-state batteries have been far short of what would be needed for a practical commercial rechargeable battery.
