But a new way to firm up the world’s electricity grids is fast developing: sodium-ion batteries. Sodium-ion batteries: pros and cons Energy storage collects excess energy generated by renewables, stores it then releases it on demand, to help ensure a reliable supply. Sodium ions are bigger and heavier than lithium ions.

In trials, GE’s sodium metal halide Durathon batteries ( earlier post ) have successfully powered GE Mining’s Scoop, an underground vehicle that transports mining materials, at Coal River Energy, LLC in Alum Creek, West Virginia. Sodium-metal halide cell basic chemistry. Additionally, the battery contains no lead acid materials.

In contrast, lead-acid batteries have a 99% recycling rate in the US. Aqua Metals has developed a process that it says is much cleaner, more efficient and more cost-effective. But right now, used lead-acid batteries are a commodity. Each has its own set of environmental issues. It’s a great sustainability story.

The electric car features three different battery options, two different Lithium-based (LI) systems – A123Systems and Enerdel as well as a Sodium-Nickel battery Zebra (Mes-Dea). Today we could be using lead-acid EVs, lead-carbon-acid EVs, or nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion hybrids.
