#America's First #SodiumIon #Battery Plant Comes to #Sacramento
#PeakEnergy has selected Sacramento, as home of America’s first manufacturing facility dedicated to #gridscale #sodiumionbattery systems. The 183,000sqft plant, representing a $71M investment, will produce up to 4GwH of storage annually when production begins in early 2027. Enough output each year to serve nearly four million homes, and it signals that sodium-ion tech has moved from lab to commercial reality.

#SodiumIon #batteries hit the Midwestern grid in first-of-its-kind pilot in Wisconsin
Simpler design could make a meaningful dent in the cost of storing #electricity
According to #PeakEnergy cuts lifetime cost of stored energy by an average of $70 per KWh. Half cost of #battery today. Achieves savings by removing energy-hungry cooling, eliminating routine maintenance requirements, and reducing need to overbuild storage capacity to account for battery degradation over time
