Dalhousie reports sodium-ion battery tests for renewable-energy storage
Published by BriefDash · · Toronto
Dalhousie says Lukas Swan’s laboratory is testing sodium-ion batteries for storing wind and solar electricity in Nova Scotia. Its November 6 update describes temperature, voltage and simulated-load tests, following a seed grant received more than a year earlier. The ongoing work targets stationary storage for buildings and the grid; the report presents research goals rather than demonstrated superiority over lithium-ion systems.
Why it matters
The work examines how electricity storage could suit Nova Scotia’s growing renewable-energy supply.
