This agreement valued at $4 million over five years is part of the MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI), which Total joined as a member in November 2008. This new class of batteries could enable continuous power supply from renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar and a more stable, reliable grid. The researchers have since switched.

Aqua Metals has pioneered a new electro-hydrometallurgy process that uses renewable electricity and recycles the chemicals used. Aqua Metals works with companies that are really good at collecting, safely transporting, storing, crushing and separating spent lithium-ion batteries. Each has its own set of environmental issues.

As part of this, Gray and Tarascon suggest, the state of health of batteries must be monitored continuously during operation to minimize their degradation. We need new storage technologies if more renewables are to be used on the electrical grid; similarly, the electrification of transport requires much cheaper and longer-lasting batteries.

The batteries that use sodium instead of the pricey and rare lithium are the ones that are the closest to being on the market. The charge point operator (CPO) can store grid energy when it is affordable or locally produced solar energy and utilise it as backup power for rapid DC charging or during peak hours when electricity is costly.

This allows storage of charge at a higher volumetric or gravimetric density, which translates to a higher stored energy density or storage capacity for a given size or weight. 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.
