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

Baua Electric

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. This means the batteries are less energy-dense than their lithium counterparts, and so require more space and material to store the same amount of charge.
