Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed a nanometric graphite-like anode for sodium ion (Na + storage), formed by stacked graphene sheets functionalized only on one side, termed Janus graphene. The estimated sodium storage up to C 6.9 Na is comparable to graphite for standard lithium ion batteries.

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. The battery installation is connected to a nearby 11-megawatt wind farm owned by Minwind Energy, LLC. They are able to store about 7.2

A nearly threefold decrease of the stored kWh price to €200 per kWh at the pack level is predicted in the next 10 years, driven at least in part by both the large volume production and the realistic prospects of a second life for electric vehicle batteries.

The project will be designed with an innovative smart grid control system to improve grid reliability and enable the integration of wind and other intermittent renewable energy sources. Design, build, and deploy a utility-scale, low-cost compressed air energy storage system to support the integration of renewable energy sources onto the grid.

The idea of using the energy stored in EV batteries for other purposes started with vehicle-to-grid (V2G). Instead of generating more power during peak times, utilities would purchase stored energy from EV owners and distribute it over the grid. New chemistries such as sodium-ion offer promise of incremental improvement.
