Sodium batteries, leveraging abundant sodium from salt, are emerging as a cheaper alternative to lithium-ion batteries while ...

An American study recently disclosed that we may eventually have an anode-free sodium-metal cell. Published by Nature last July 3, the research gave us the perspective of using a cheaper and much more ...

Researchers and scientists began work on sodium-ion battery development as early as the late 1970s to the early 1980s, and continued to progress throughout the eighties. However, lithium-ion batteries ...

Researchers have developed a new type of material that could make sodium batteries more efficient. Developed by an international team of interdisciplinary researchers, including the Canepa Research ...

September, a critical period for the sodium-ion battery industry's push towards mass production, saw differentiated performance across the industry chain segments — production of some materials surged ...

A comparative look at sodium-ion and lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries highlights the feasibility of using sodium-ion batteries in industrial machinery. Given the limited supply and high price of battery ...
