Comment on New sodium ion battery stores twice the energy and desalinates seawater
blackbeans@lemmy.zip 5 days agoExactly this, there’s a huge market for energy storage, where cost, power and cycle life matter way more than size and weight. And Na-ion can be produced in countries that do not have access to lithium mines, making transport less of an issue and countries more self-sustaining.

Hilarious…all of these batteries are coming out of one country because only one country is doing serious R&D.

If the data is available for mass production, you just need to copy paste the factory and establish the trading partners for supply chains.
Not the same issue as, for example, ASML and China.
