Scientists Unveil Solid-State Sodium-Ion Battery: A Safer, Cheaper Path for EVs and Grid Storage

A breakthrough in solid-state sodium-ion battery technology promises to redefine safety and affordability in both electric vehicles and grid-scale energy storage. Researchers this week announced the development of a new sodium-ion battery design that replaces the flammable liquid electrolytes found in conventional lithium-ion systems with a solid, non-combustible alternative. This innovation not only mitigates the risk of thermal runaway—a persistent hazard in current battery technologies—but also leverages the abundance and low cost of sodium, offering a compelling solution for large-scale deployment in renewable energy integration and electric mobility.
