Sodium-based batteries have attracted wide interests in the academic and industrial fields. However, their energy density is still lower than that of Li-based batteries. Here we report an initial anode-free Na battery with an energy density of over 200 Wh kg −1, which is even higher than that of the commercial LiFePO 4 ||graphite battery.
Sodium-ion batteries have less energy density in comparison with lithium-ion batteries, primarily due to the higher atomic mass and larger ionic radius of sodium. This affects the overall capacity and energy output of the batteries. The larger size of sodium ions restricts the choice of compatible electrode materials.
Sodium-ion batteries have long been tipped as a promising post-Li-ion storage technology but their performance is still inferior to Li-ion batteries. Here the authors design an ampere-hour-scale battery with an initial Na-free anode configuration to achieve an energy density that rivals Li-ion batteries.
This economic advantage positions sodium batteries as a viable alternative for energy storage solutions that prioritize sustainability and affordability over compactness and high energy density.
a) Grid Storage and Large-Scale Energy Storage. One of the most compelling reasons for using sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) in grid storage is the abundance and cost effectiveness of sodium. Sodium is the sixth most rich element in the Earth's crust, making it significantly cheaper and more sustainable than lithium.
