This project aims to develop room-temperature sodium-sulfur batteries for renewable energy storage. Sodium-sulfur batteries are ideal for large-scale energy storage, owing to high energy density and low cost. However, there are significant challenges in attaining practical sodium-sulfur batteries with high capacity and safety. By developing novel high capacity sulphur cathodes, dendrite-free sodium metal anodes and quasi-solid-state gel polymer electrolytes, this project expects to achieve high-performance sodium-sulfur batteries with high capacity, long cycle life and enhanced safety. Expected benefits will arise from deployment of sodium-sulfur batteries and advances in energy storage technologies that are efficient and cost-effective.

该项目旨在开发用于可再生能源存储的室温钠硫电池。钠硫电池由于能量密度高、成本低，是大规模储能的理想选择。然而，在获得具有高容量和安全性的实用钠硫电池方面存在重大挑战。通过开发新型高容量硫阴极、无枝晶钠金属阳极和准固态凝胶聚合物电解质，该项目有望实现高容量、长循环寿命和增强安全性的高性能钠硫电池。预期效益将来自钠硫电池的部署以及高效且具有成本效益的储能技术的进步。
