Sodium-ion batteries are set to spark a renewable energy revolution – and Australia must be ready – ET Auto

Baua Electric

Some types of lithium mining require a lot of water and energy and have led to local pollution, such as in South America’s alpine lakes. The extent to which renewables should dominate Australia’s energy grids is a major issue in science and politics. Solar and wind are clearly now the cheapest form of electricity.

How EVs Are Reducing Carbon (CO2) Emissions

Blink Charging

Not only do they eliminate tailpipe emissions, but they also boast greater energy efficiency compared to their gasoline counterparts. The upstream, “well to wheel” emissions of the EV are linked to electricity generation and the electrical grid, with lower emissions in regions that use more renewable energy sources.

131. ELECTRIFYING EVERYTHING IN THE 2020s

Qnovo

Electric utilities will implement more energy storage projects on their grids — partly driven by regulations as well as the proliferation of clean-energy grids with distributed wind and solar generation. More battery capacity means a continued drive to look for newer materials with higher energy density.
