From ESS News

Scientists from Japan’s Tokyo University of Science (TUS) and Nagoya Institute of Technology, and from Chalmers University of Technology, in Gothenburg, Sweden, have developed a machine learning method to optimize the energy density of Na-ion batteries.

The research brings Na-ion batteries one step closer to becoming a commercially viable alternative to lithium-ion devices. Lithium-ion currently dominates the battery market but lithium’s relative scarcity, and high price, is a problem for supply chains and project developers alike.
