Great interview. Very informative.

It should be very interesting to see where battery technology goes over the next 20 years. The idea that battery chemistry will be tuned to best fit the needs of the application makes a lot of sense.

In California, USA is NATRON ENERGY who is Manufacturing Na-ion batteries since several years ago. There is also AMTE POWER in Scothland and INDI ENERGY in India who are both very close to the mass production stage.

Please suggest any powder which can be used to convert h2so4 acid battery to gell battery.

Which storage technology would you expect take the lead in residential photovoltaic systems?

I wonder if it makes sense to combine water desalination with sodium production for Na batteries, using the very high salt water from the desal waste, solves several problems at once.

Is the negative terminal at low potential compared to positive terminal? If so, how would electrons move from low to high potential? Everyone uses water tank analogy to tell us that things move from high to low potential.

Interesting and informative. I'm not being sarcastic and was able to understand everything said.

well reliance industry is gong to acquire faradin , it will be interesting to watch applcations and commercialization in coming years .

Thankyou doctor for your beautiful explanation.

I can see Sodium batteries being used in homes to store electricity from solarpanels in the future because space and weight won't be a problem there. Another pro is that they don't overheat as fast and have a longer lifetime. Right now Li-Ion is not really that great of an investment when storing electricity in homes just because of their lifetime and cost.

I'm in love!

Main drawback of sodium ion batteries is anode graphite not suitable for sodium as anode which is fit for li-ion more research should be done on this However, I'm doing my Ph.D on sodium looking for more such vedios it's very interesting If you plan a discussion or debit about such topics with 3 to 4 members maybe we can share more knowledge

The current solution is to use hard carbon instead of graphite. That may not be the perfect solution but it works and is actually less expensive than graphite.

The GAC Aion EV now uses them.

Check out GWSO's sodium ion battery for EVs

Surely it opens up the options for home storage, especially as we won't need to replace them as often as lithium ion batteries used in home storage, due to their higher cycling ability!? Many home storage Lithium batteries having guarantees of only 10 years or around a few thousand cycles!

It would. It's not the most sophisticated solution but it works.

While safety is an issue in battery tech, so too is temperature. For instance, if you try to charge lithium batteries at temperatures below freezing you will very rapidly destroy them. So anyone using them has to keep them warm. That can be a pain compared to working with even older battery types like lead acid that you can still charge at -20 degrees F, no problem. So a variety of different battery types will all have a place in the future of battery power.

So the sodium sulphur batteries had that little problem with needing a high temperature to operate and a ceramic electrolyte was feasible at the temperature of operation . Some commercial cylindrical batteries were made i beleive at 2 inch diameter or suchlike. But then the new lithium ion battery soon hit the market . Criticism of sodium sulphur related to the what ifs of a crash situation if used in electric cars . The vehicle fires of lithium ion powered vehicles have been serious incidents .

Sodium batteries are already being used in EV’s. I don’t know the long term results. VW’s and a couple of others are currently in production. The range might not be as far, but the temperature range is impressive. The charge time is less and the chemistry have great advantages. My main issue with EV’s in general is RANGE!!!! 500/charge at a minimum

That is weird. I feel I know more about sodium ion battery players just googling than the researcher in the field and journalist specializing in batteries.

To be sure there ain't any translation anomalies...... NiFe batteries were used likely around 1910 , that's Nickel Iron batteries. Na is for sodium, Ni is for nickel . Iron and ion get pronounced kinda similarly.

does she??

Sodium is about 10,000 times more plentiful than Lithium, so that's nice, also no nickel or cobalt needed either.

Once super charging is ubiquitous along with fast charging EVs, battery range will largely become irrelevant. A 200 mile range would be more than adequate. You need to rest anyway every 200 miles driving, so you can fast charge to 80% then. Also large scale storage is better suited to sodium ion technology, due to safety.

Why can't we do Sodium Chloride batteries?? Just sodium chloride.

Imagine a few ions vs a carbon 3 triple bonds converting into single bonds. Bit of a long shot but would be A+ energy release/charge...?

indian company reliance is betting on it

Seems like every new battery technology has a major flaw in its use for car battery use. It's all hype with the catch phrase "Could one day replace lithium..." It's all investor attracting hype.

Sodium batteries will not be used for grid storage applications. Sodium batteries have about 1000 Cycles vs. 6000-10000 for LFP batteries at about the same price. That makes no sense. Sodium batteries will be used in all applications where price is everything and everything else is secondary. Vehicles, Trains, Boats in Asia, Africa and South America. Solar will use mostly LFP and some other tech like compressed air and redox flow. „Western“ vehicles in China, Japan, US and Europe will use LFP and NMC/NMA chemistries.
