Scientists make a sodium-ion battery density breakthrough

[voyager]

"would lead to a much greater energy density by weight (1600 Wh/kg versus 1430 Wh/kg), resulting in a 19% increase of energy density"

Note: "much greater" is Electrek's wording.

The weekend read: Sodium-ion batteries go mainstream

Sodium-ion batteries are emerging as a viable alternative to lithium-ion technology. Industrial heavyweights CATL and Reliance Industries, following the acquisition of UK-based sodium-ion specialist Faradion, are bent on bringing the technology out of the lab and into mass production. Against a...

Researchers Develop Sea-Salt Battery 4 Times the Capacity of Lithium

Australian researchers from the University of Sydney have developed a sea salt battery constructed from sodium-sulphur with four times the energy storage capacity of lithium-ion-powered batteries.

With the research having been led by Dr. Shenlong Zhao from the University of Sydney, and serving as a breakthrough for renewable energy, the sodium-sulphur battery, which is developed through the use of molten salt that can be processed from sea water, is cheaper and more energy efficient than existing options.
