Lithium-intercalation compounds and sodium-intercalation compounds are used for anode and cathode, respectively. Sodium-ion based rechargeable batteries (SIBs, e.g., earlier post ) are of interest due to sodium’s abundance, far lower prices, and a greener synthesis while maintaining a similarity in ion-insertion chemistry.

A team of biologists built a custom Kinefox GPS tracker that wildlife—including this European bison test subject—can recharge simply by moving around as usual. In work published in PLoS One in May, they detailed the Kinefox, a GPS tracker that wildlife can recharge simply by moving. They said, ‘We don’t know.

While rechargeable batteries are the solution of choice for consumer-level use, they are impractical for grid-scale consideration. They used nickel and aluminium as materials for the cathode and anode respectively, with sodium aluminium tetrachloride (NaAlCl 4 ) as the molten-salt electrolyte—all relatively cheap, earth-abundant materials.
