6 FAQs about Inverters & Power System Solutions

What is the Smart sodium storage system (s 4) project?

Find out more The Smart Sodium Storage System (S 4) Project is a $10.6M project which aims to develop and demonstrate novel sodium-ion battery technologies for use in renewable energy storage applications. The S 4 Project is funded in part by the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA), and is being led by the University of Wollongong.

What are the potential applications of sodium-ion batteries?

The potential applications of sodium-ion batteries are numerous and varied. They could power electric vehicles, provide energy storage for renewable energy systems, and even replace lithium-ion batteries in consumer electronics.

Can sodium ion batteries revolutionise the energy storage industry?

This breakthrough Sodium Ion Battery Materials Project has the potential to revolutionise the energy storage industry by providing a safer, cheaper, and more environmentally friendly alternative to lithium-ion batteries.

What are sodium-ion batteries?

Sodium-ion batteries are seen as one of the key alternatives to current lithium-ion battery technology. We're translating cutting-edge research into real-world devices, keep reading to find out more. We're demonstrating these novel sodium-ion batteries at sites in Wollongong and Bondi.

Can lithium-ion batteries sustain high demand for energy storage?

This skyrocketing increase in lithium price gave us a strong impression that lithium-ion batteries could not sustain the high demands on energy storage, opening the door for alternatives to be developed as a matter of urgency. We expected the speed of SIB commercialisation will be in next 5 years so this is overly optimistic at that time.

What is UNSW doing about energy storage in Australia?

UNSW is striving towards 1,000GWh of beneficial energy storage in Australia by 2050. We believe this level of storage will underpin a healthy society by promoting a resilient and sustainable energy system. Resilience means providing electrical energy more reliably, by accommodating variable generators and unplanned damage to grid infrastructure.
