New high energy, highly stable cathode for sodium-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

F 0.7 , for sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries (NIBs). Recently, attention has been refocused on room-temperature Na-ion batteries (NIBs) as a low-cost alternative technology as compared to LIBs. The abundance and low cost of Na in the earth will become advantageous when a large amount of material is demanded for renewable energy solutions.

EV Guru: Sodium-Ion Batteries are Coming Sooner Than You think!

Plug In India

In India, OLA Electric and Tata group have plans to make cells at a large scale. Video: EV Guru: Sodium-Ion Batteries are Coming Sooner Than You think! “Tesla might actually have to get into the mining & refining directly at scale, unless costs improve. Sodium is bigger and heavier than lithium cell.

Researchers find tin nanoparticles promising electrode material for sodium-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Tin (Sn) shows promise as a robust electrode material for rechargeable sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries, according to a new study by a team from the University of Pittsburgh and Sandia National Laboratory. Rechargeable Na-ion batteries work on the same basic principle as Li-ion batteries—i.e., for the positive electrode.
