New long-duration, extended capacity Na-Al battery design for grid storage

Green Car Congress

Researchers led by the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have extended the capacity and duration of sodium-aluminum batteries. The new sodium-based molten salt battery uses two distinct reactions. of peak charge capacity.

Aqua Metals is building a more sustainable battery recycling ecosystem

Charged EVs

Grid stabilization, solar arrays, wind farms, and even home energy storage systems—some of those are coming offline and already going to their second set of batteries. There are real challenges with waste streams—they yield a lot of sulfuric acid and sodium sulfate, which will need to get landfilled. Each one has their own recipe.

Can Flow Batteries Finally Beat Lithium?

Cars That Think

At the depot, the spent fuel could be recharged with electricity from any source—solar, wind, hydroelectric, nuclear, or fossil fuels. In comparison, lithium-ion batteries cost around $138/kWh. Then there are the new battery chemistries that are not lithium based—for instance, sodium-ion and graphene-based batteries.

Electric Scooter vs Petrol Scooter : Huge benefits for India

Plug In India

When you start an electric scooter, you can listen to the wind and birds! Also note that there are many promising battery research projects that are going on like Al-Air batteries or Sodium-Ion batteries. Multiple companies are aiming to manufacture a 100% made in India electric scooter. It is terrible.
