Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have devised an alloying strategy that enables sodium-beta batteries to operate at significantly lower temperatures. The new electrode enables sodium-beta batteries to last longer, helps streamline their manufacturing process and reduces the risk of accidental fire.

A battery, based on electrodes made of sodium and nickel chloride and using thea new type of metal mesh membrane, could be used for grid-scale installations to make intermittent power sources such as wind and solar capable of delivering reliable baseload electricity. The work was supported by the French oil company Total S.A.

Originally targeting three industries, the scheme was later expanded to include 14 sectors including automobiles, auto components, electronic products, solar PV modules, advanced chemistry cell (ACC) battery among others. It aims to promote import substitution besides generating employment opportunities.

You can use solar energy to power your EV now and go zero emissions. A petrol scooter has no option to be powered by solar energy. Petrol or crude oil is imported from outside India. Over the life of 6-7 years, a single petrol scooter, consumes over 2500 liters of oil and we have millions of such scooters.

Other work focuses on sodium as an earth-abundant alternative to lithium, but while it could lower cost, sodium ions also carry just a single charge. Because solar and wind energy are intermittent, producing energy only when the sun shines or the wind blows, a method to capture and store energy for later use is needed.
