As reported by Interesting Engineering, a team at the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) has ...

Unlike traditional lithium-ion batteries, which depend on scarce metals like lithium and cobalt, sodium-ion batteries use sodium, an element that’s way easier to source. That means less ...

A thorough analysis of market, technological, and supply chain outcomes for sodium-ion batteries finds that significant advances are needed before commercialization. Legions of battery engineers ...

Sodium-ion batteries for electric vehicles and energy storage are moving toward the mainstream. Wider use of these batteries could lead to lower costs, less fire risk, and less need for lithium ...

Battery market leader CATL announced the second generation of its sodium-ion batteries with improved specifications. The new batteries promise to maintain their performance even at temperatures of ...

Chennai: Researchers in Presidency College have come up with new technology to make all solid-state sodium-ion batteries that can reduce the cost of electric vehicles and decrease the risk of them ...

The atom that gains an electron becomes a negative ion. A positive and negative ion attract each other and form an ionic bond. Students will look at animations and make drawings of the ionic bonding ...

Peak Energy, an energy-storage startup, received $55 million in funding to scale up production of sodium-ion batteries that the company is positioning as an alternative to the widely used lithium ...

Atoms with incomplete valence shells generally form bonds with other atoms or elements to achieve a stable electron configuration ... in positively charged sodium ions (Na⁺) and negatively ...

Over on the other side of the battery cell, Altris makes its cathode out of Prussian white, made from abundant, inexpensive, non-conflict materials like iron, nitrogen, sodium and carbon. Like ...

The launch of China’s first large-scale sodium-ion battery energy storage station could have wide-ranging implications for the clean-energy industry, as the new technology is seen as a promising ...
