A recent study from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) looks at molten-salt batteries that can “freeze” their charge for months until required. We have some test cases ongoing for six months at this time,” says Minyuan “Miller” Li , first author of the study. When it comes to potential applications, adds Vincent L. “If

However, the concerns regarding the high cost and the limited lithium reserves in the earth’s crust have driven the researchers to search more sustainable alternative energy storage solutions. Sodium-ion and magnesium-ion batteries, as new energy storage systems in portable devices, have attracted much attention of the investigators.

Researchers at the University of Maryland have developed a nanocomposite material of amorphous, porous FePO 4 nanoparticles electrically wired by single-wall carbon nanotubes as a potential cathode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, many challenges remain before SIBs can become commercially competitive with LIBs.

Sodium-ion batteries (Na-ion, NIBs) are seen as an alternative to lithium-ion batteries for large-scale applications due to their lower cost and abundant supply of sodium. However, low capacity and poor rate capability of existing anodes have been major obstacles to the commercialization of NIBs. Yu, Petr V.
