“Market for #gridscale batteries and backup power isn’t just expanding, it’s becoming essential infrastructure,” said Kurt Kelty, GM VP of batteries, propulsion, and #sustainability. “#Electricity demand is climbing, and it’s only going to accelerate… GM batteries can play an integral role.” Redwood uses second-life batteries from GM EVs and new GM battery modules to create #US-built energy storage systems

#Underwater #turbine spinning for 6 years off #Scotland’s coast is a breakthrough for #tidal energy
Keeping #gridscale turbine in place in harsh #sea environment that long is a record that helps pave the way for bigger #tidalenergy farms and makes it far more appealing to investors, according to trade association #Ocean Energy #Europe. Tidal energy projects would be prohibitively expensive if turbines had to be taken out of the water for maintenance every couple of years.

Underwater turbine spinning for 6 years off Scotland's coast is a breakthrough for tidal energy
Submerged in about 40 meters of water off Scotland’s coast, a turbine has been spinning for more than six years to harness the power of ocean tides and generate electricity. The trade association Ocean Energy Europe says keeping such a large turbine operating in the harsh sea environment that long is a record that demonstrates the technology's commercial viability. Tidal energy technologies are still in the early days of their commercial development, but their potential for generating clean energy is big. The MeyGen tidal energy project has four turbines that power up to 7,000 homes annually.

Another potential use for sodium ion battery tech is in grid-scale storage systems, like those mentioned here;
(#HatTip to @norightturnnz for the link)
I have no idea what chemicals are currently used when building such systems. But if they're lithium ion they'll be stupidly expensive to build, and if they're lead acid - which seems more likely - they'll need replacing much sooner.
