ESN Premium speaks with Mukesh Chatter of Alsym Energy about the potential advantages of sodium-ion energy storage.

Sodium-ion (Na-ion) battery energy storage system (BESS) startup Peak Energy has announced a multi-year phased agreement with developer Jupiter Power to supply up to 4.75GWh of Na-ion BESS.

Advances in sodium-ion battery energy storage systems come from Peak Energy in the US, deploying its sodium-ion system in Colorado, and Phenogy, deploying Europe’s largest sodium-ion system in Germany.

US sodium-ion battery firm Natron Energy has ceased trading, putting an end to its two domestic gigafactories. The news points to the challenges for battery chemistries hoping to compete with LFP, analysts told Energy-Storage.news.

Sodium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) startup Peak Energy has launched and shipped its first sodium-ion BESS to be deployed in a shared pilot with nine utility and independent power producers (IPPs).

More product announcement news from last week’s ees Europe trade show and expo in Munich, Germany, with Sunwoda, Hithium, Rept, Canadian Solar, Sungrow and Aeson Power revealing new BESS solutions.

A 200MW/400MWh BESS project in China combining lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries has been put into operation.

Netherlands-based startup Moonwatt plans to commercialise an energy storage solution for hybridisation with solar using two big technological deviations from today’s industry standard – we hear more from the firm’s CEO and COO.

A new study from Stanford says that sodium-ion batteries will need more breakthroughs in order to compete with lithium-ion (Li-ion).

Peak Energy president and CCO Cameron Dales speaks with Energy-Storage.news about the US startup’s plans for scaling sodium-ion battery storage and cell manufacturing, sodium-ion’s advantages, and the bankability of the technology.
