And, MIT researchers may be on the right track, as the school’s battery research team has re-architected the traditional battery design of storage and discharge functions. …
… “The new battery relies on an innovative architecture called a semi-solid flow cell, in which solid particles are suspended in a carrier liquid and pumped through the system.” …
Sodium chemistry expected to play larger role in energy storage of the future. Aquion Energy, NGK, and Pacific Northwest National Labs are in various stages of research and commercialization with sodium enabled batteries. …
… “Sodium’s selling point seems to be in durability, low cost, efficiency and safety, depending on whom you talk to and the chemical formula.” …
in an environmentally friendly way so that it may be reused when needed? Research project will explore nano materials for energy storage purposes. DOE awards University
of Texas funding to pursue this objective. …
