Sodium-ion batteries use abundant sodium instead of lithium, lowering material costs and supply risk. They offer comparable performance to LFP batteries for stationary energy storage. Stanford's STEER study emphasizes that innovation, not just scaling, is key to reducing costs. Credit: Jim Gensheimer Sodium-ion batteries show promise as a. . Advances in solid-state, sodium-ion, and flow batteries promise higher energy densities, faster charging, and longer lifespans, enabling electric vehicles to travel farther, microgrids to operate efficiently, and renewable energy to integrate seamlessly into the grid. Developed at Western University in Ontario, the breakthrough replaces lithium (Li), which is costly, flammable, and. .
