Sodium & Potassium Batteries May Beat Lithium

June 28, 2018 | Leave a Comment

Georgia Institute of Technology researchers have found new evidence suggesting that batteries based on sodium and potassium hold promise as a potential alternative to lithium-based batteries. From electric cars that travel hundreds of miles on a single charge to chainsaws as mighty as gas-powered versions, new products hit the market each year that take advantage […]
