Faradion demonstrates proof-of-concept sodium-ion electric bike

Green Car Congress

British battery R&D company Faradion has demonstrated a proof-of-concept electric bike powered by sodium-ion batteries at the headquarters of Williams Advanced Engineering, which collaborated in the development of the bike. Sodium-ion intercalation batteries—i.e., Oxford University was also a partner. Earlier post.)

Researchers call for integration of materials sustainability into battery research; the need for in situ monitoring

The size of these batteries (in comparison to those used for portable electronics) places severe pressure on materials resources. Under such a scenario, the production of Li-ion batteries should expand hugely over the years to come, hence reviving the issue of finite Li reserves. —Grey and Tarascon. Elemental resources.
