Summary: | Sodium batteries and solid-state electrolytes are two research directions in the effort to develop electrochemical energy storage that goes beyond the lithium ion. In this issue of Chem, Goodenough and colleagues combine a sodium-metal anode, a NASICON solid electrolyte, and a Prussian blue analog cathode to create an energy-dense, long-lived battery.
