UChicago: World’s First Anode-Free Sodium Solid-State Battery
July 6th, 2024This is definitely interesting. In terms of years we would have to wait for this, I wonder what, “Closer than ever,” means?
Via: University of Chicago:
UChicago Pritzker Molecular Engineering Prof. Y. Shirley Meng’s Laboratory for Energy Storage and Conversion has created the world’s first anode-free sodium solid-state battery.
With this research, the LESC – a collaboration between the UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and the University of California San Diego’s Aiiso Yufeng Li Family Department of Chemical and Nano Engineering – has brought the reality of inexpensive, fast-charging, high-capacity batteries for electric vehicles and grid storage closer than ever.
