Technical FAQs 4

What is a Technology Strategy assessment on sodium batteries?

This technology strategy assessment on sodium batteries, released as part of the Long-Duration Storage Shot, contains the findings from the Storage Innovations (SI) 2030 strategic initiative.

Are sodium batteries a good choice for energy storage?

Much of the attraction to sodium (Na) batteries as candidates for large-scale energy storage stems from the fact that as the sixth most abundant element in the Earth’s crust and the fourth most abundant element in the ocean, it is an inexpensive and globally accessible commodity.

Which companies are deploying Saltwater batteries?

For example, Aquion Energy, a Pennsylvania-based company, deployed a number of “Aspen” battery systems in the mid-2010s. BlueSky Energy, an Austrian company, worked to deploy “Greenrock Saltwater Batteries” until approximately 2019–2020. These batteries do not appear to be commercially active at this time.

Should the United States support supply chain development for Na batteries?

Timely support to improve supply chain issues could prove to be particularly relevant to domestic supply chains associated with Na batteries, where the United States may have a unique strategic interest in supply chain development.
