Coordination compounds are molecules that possess a metal center bound to ligands (atoms, ions or molecules that donate electrons to the metal); these complexes can be neutral or charged. V in lithium-, sodium-, or potassium-based cells. V for Li-, Na- and K-ion batteries. V for Li-, Na- and K-ion batteries.

Researchers within the RS2E network on electrochemical energy storage (Réseau sur le stockage électrochimique de l’énergie) in France have developed the first sodium-ion battery in an 18650 format. The main advantage of the prototype is that it relies on sodium, an element far more abundant and less costly than lithium.
