Similar to Li +-ion batteries, Na +-ion batteries show high-energy storage, low cost, and versatility in application. Moreover, the redox potential of Na + -ion is only 0.3 V positive than Li + -ion (i.e., Na + /Na = 2.71 V against Li + /Li = 3.04 V); however, one thing that sets apart the Na + -ion batteries from Li + -ion batteries is their natural …
Researchers in India have developed a 5 kW/25 kWh vanadium redox flow battery with an energy density of 30 watt-hours to 40 watt-hours per liter.
