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. Faradion Limited was established in 2011 to develop low-cost, non-aqueous sodium-ion (Na-ion) rechargeable batteries.

Rechargeable batteries store electricity in their electrode materials, while redox flow batteries use chemicals stored in tanks attached to the electrodes. Researchers have now developed a battery system based on a hybrid cell, which not only stores and provides electricity but also produces valuable chemicals in a flow system.

The Robust Affordable Next Generation EV-Storage (RANGE) program’s goal is to enable a 3X increase in electric vehicle range (from ~80 to ~240 miles per charge) with a simultaneous price reduction of > 1/3 (to ~ $30,000). ARPA-E anticipates making approximately 8- 12 awards under this FOA. Ceramic and other solid electrolyte batteries.

They attributed this as being likely due to the prohibitively large ionic radius of the sodium ion (1.02 Å) as compared to the Li ion (0.76 Å); insertion of Na ion therefore requires large distortion of the metal oxide lattice, which would require unacceptably elevated temperatures not realistic for the operation of batteries.
