Also not nearly as much of a fire hazard.
Comment on New sodium ion battery stores twice the energy and desalinates seawater
J92@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoYeah, the advantages of all these sodium batteries, in my mind, is that they are stable and rugged enough to build up a backbone of a energy storage system for a grid. I’m seriously thinking about them for my house, in the UK.

Yes, I am very intrigued. For something size of half a shipping container I could power my house for almost a month. This is of course fantasy because I don’t have $20,000 to throw down. But combine it with solar cells that have gotten really cheap you could indefinitely power you house for next to nothing.
