- The Indian scientists at JNCASR, Bengaluru, have developed a super-fast charging sodium-ion battery (SIB).
- It can reach 80% charge in just 6 minutes and last over 3,000 cycles.
- The conventional SIBs suffer from sluggish charging and short lifespans.
- This new battery uses a clever mix of chemistry and nanotechnology.
- While lithium-ion batteries have powered this revolution so far, they are costly.
- Besides, lithium resources are limited and geopolitically constrained.
- Sodium is cheap and abundantly available in India, unlike lithium, which is scarce and largely imported.
- A battery built on sodium instead of lithium could help the country to become self-reliant in energy storage technology.
