Na‐Ion Batteries—Approaching Old and New Challenges
University of the Basque Country · University of Technology Sydney
Abstract
Abstract The last 10 years established the beginning of a post‐lithium era in the field of energy storage, with the renaissance of Na‐ion batteries (NIBs) as alternative for Li‐based systems. The development of this technology has required intense work in materials research in order to produce and optimize anodes, cathodes, and electrolytes for NIBs. The strong and weak points of the main families of compounds for each battery component are analyzed in this progress report. Taking into account the achievements made in materials for NIBs, the industrial scene is analyzed through the existing prototypes and commercial cells and also from an economical viewpoint. In this scenario, where Na‐ion technology seems to…
