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

Green Car Congress

F 0.7 , for sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries (NIBs). Large-scale energy storage systems are needed to deal with intermittent electricity production of solar and wind. Recently, attention has been refocused on room-temperature Na-ion batteries (NIBs) as a low-cost alternative technology as compared to LIBs. Click to enlarge.
