Chemists have announced an exciting alternative that relies on an organic, high-energy cathode material to make sodium-ion batteries.

Their research has potential for large-scale energy storage applications like data centers, power grids, and commercial-scale renewable energy systems, in addition to electric vehicles.

Their cathode's performance nearly is close to a benchmark known as the theoretical maximum capacity.
