New Energy Storage Concept – 2GreenEnergy
Like the concept in the video, too much "stuff"; workable energy storage, at least for grid-scale deployment, must be at least somewhat centralized. The problem with all electromechanical storage solutions, is that they rely on the discoveries of Faraday (ca. 1830) and Newton (ca. 1660), and there is very little room for improvement.
Sodium-Ion Batteries: The Future of Sustainable Energy Storage and Investment Opportunities
Sodium is 500 to 1,000 times more abundant than lithium, and its extraction is far less harmful to the environment. Unlike lithium, sourcing sodium does not involve earth-scarring mining practices. Natron''s sodium-ion batteries are crafted from readily available materials such as aluminum, iron, and manganese, making them an eco
