TIME THIS MONTH. NATIONALLY, WE’RE SEEING AN INCREASE IN LITHIUM ION BATTERY FIRES. THE BALTIMORE COUNTY FIRE DEPARTMENT HAS FOUGHT THREE FIRES IN JUNE CAUSED BY LITHIUM ION BATTERIES. THE LATEST ON ...

CATL's second-generation sodium-ion cells can reportedly discharge normally even at -40 degrees Celsius (-40F as temperature scales converge). Depending on the make and model, EV batteries perform the ...

For the first time, the quantum properties of two separated ions have been manipulated by microwaves, instead of the usual laser beams. Experiments performed by researchers at the U.S. National ...

While lithium ion battery prices are falling again, interest in sodium ion (Na-ion) energy storage has not waned. With a global ramp-up of cell manufacturing capacity under way, it remains unclear ...

From smartphones to electric vehicles, batteries single-handedly power some of the single most impactful technologies in our lives. And while batteries themselves aren’t some new technology, the ...

Two years ago, sodium-ion battery pioneer Natron Energy was busy preparing its specially formulated sodium batteries for mass production. The company slipped a little past its 2023 kickoff plans, but ...
