  "textContent": "A new study shows that a low-cost sodium-ion battery currently used in cars and large-scale energy storage systems in China matches most performance parameters and production quality found in Tesla’s lithium-ion batteries. Since sodium is much more abundant and widely available than lithium, using it for batteries could cut raw material costs for manufacturers and […]\n\nThe post Batteries That Use Sodium Instead of Lithium Could Be Low-Cost Rival to Tesla’s appeared first on Good News Network.",
