Photo: Natron Energy Natron Energy has announced it will build the first sodium-ion battery gigafactory in the US, in North Carolina. Natron’s batteries are currently the only UL-listed sodium-ion batteries on the market. Sodium-ion batteries need more development before they can compete head-to-head with lithium-ion in the EV market.

Large-scale sodium-ion batteries are gaining momentum due to their lower cost and abundance of raw materials compared to lithium-ion batteries.

Solar and wind are clearly now the cheapest form of electricity. But limits to these technologies can undermine the case for a renewables-only electricity mix. The challenges posed by solar and wind generators are real. But a new way to firm up the world’s electricity grids is fast developing: sodium-ion batteries.

How the Natrium nuclear reactor plant works The project features a 345 MW sodium-cooled fast reactor with a molten salt-based energy storage system. Unlike water, the sodium doesn’t need to be pumped, because as it gets hot, it rises, and as it rises, it cools off. Get started here.

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. Support regional electricity market by responding to real-time imbalances between generation and load. They are able to store about 7.2

Exceptionally high selectivity for lithium over other ions present in the brine (including sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and boron), meeting specifications for subsequent direct production of battery-grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate, without the need to first produce lithium carbonate. No pre-extraction steps are required.
