Strypey<p>A year ago I posted about some folks I know with an off-grid system powered by a water wheel and solar panels, who were awaiting delivery of some of the first commercially available sodium ion batteries. Well, they've had them in for a year now and they're totally sold on them. Although the real test will be how they're performing in 5-10 years time.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/RenewableEnergy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RenewableEnergy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/BatteryTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BatteryTech</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/SodiumIon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SodiumIon</span></a></p>

Kaleb 📝<p>This is the sort of grid-scale battery project that I am thrilled to see. I’m sure there are environmental downsides that someone will point out, but I believe phase-change batteries are far more practical and sustainable than chemical batteries.</p><p><a href="https://social.haugenh.us/tags/Wisconsin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wisconsin</span></a> <a href="https://social.haugenh.us/tags/GreenEnergy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GreenEnergy</span></a> <a href="https://social.haugenh.us/tags/BatteryTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BatteryTech</span></a> <a href="https://social.haugenh.us/tags/Usonia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Usonia</span></a></p><p>From: <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mattferrell" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>mattferrell</span></a></span><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mattferrell/113011288996320737" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">mastodon.social/@mattferrell/1</span><span class="invisible">13011288996320737</span></a></p>
