Advanced Na battery technology; key to transforming society's energy use

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to advance energy storage technology based on low cost and sustainable sodium chemistry through understanding new electrode and electrolyte materials combinations, particularly to enhance the way charge is moved across the electrolyte–electrode interface. Sodium batteries represent a low-cost alternative to existing lithium devices and their development will affect a broad range of technologies. This is especially relevant to electric vehicles and renewable energy where large, expensive batteries are needed.
