Do you think it would be enough to help people in areas with inconsistent power? I never really thought about bolstering power storage away from the center of the grid.
I think they might be more useful than LFP and certainly than lead-acid in that role. One of the biggest issues with consumer UPS units is that they recharge very slowly after an outage, so they’re mostly only useful for infrequent power cuts. If Na-ion can recharge substantially faster, it would be more useful in areas with frequent interruptions.
