MIT develops new molten salt battery is expected to achieve grid-level energy storage

A group of MIT research groups at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has developed a new molten salt battery design that enables large-scale, inexpensive, and sustainable battery designs that are expected to achieve grid level energy storage. The new molten salt battery is based on a 50-year-old sodium sulphide/nickel sulphide battery design, which allows the electrodes to maintain the desired temperature in the hot melt state and achieve charge and discharge.

The researchers chose to use immiscible electrolytes and electrodes to help ensure a safe battery system that can be discharged in the unlikely event of a mechanical failure without any undesired effects such as fire or explosion. This is comparable to sodium-sulfur (NaS) molten salt batteries that have proven to be useful for grid storage; however, sodium ion-selective membranes must be used for NaS molten salt batteries, but this adds a lot of expense and resistance to the battery, and in the event of a cracked film There will be violent reactions and even fires.
