Gsus4New sodium ion battery stores twice the energy and desalinates seawater
iopqDesalinating water might be the best part. Usually, solar power has the downside of needing storage and desalination has the downside of big energy requirements. If you can do both at the same time, it’s a big win for dry climates with lots of sun
They are not going to get the sodium from desalination, they will mine it because it’s cheaper.
and more pure
Exactly, the desalination gimmick is bullshit for STEM ignorant hippies.
