Sodium-ion batteries are gaining traction globally as an alternative to lithium-ion batteries. However, there have been limited studies that examine their performance and safety characteristics. On August 12 at 8:30 a.m. CT, ESRI’s Research Scientist, Dhevathi R Rajagopalan Kannan, Ph.D., will present ESRI’s research findings on the performance and safety of commercial sodium-ion batteries, focusing on cycle life, overcharge, overdischarge, and external short tests at cell and module levels. The research includes destructive physical analysis to inform the development of safer and more reliable sodium-ion energy storage systems.
