This 100-Year-Old EV Came With More Range Than The First Nissan Leaf

Global electricity use is growing again, but renewables are expected to overtake coal as the world’s largest source of electricity this year, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).

Base Power has just unveiled Core, a supersized 39.2-kWh home battery that it says can keep a house running for up to 36 hours and be installed in under an hour.

Lithium-ion has long dominated home battery storage, but sodium-ion is starting to make its move. Sodium-ion battery startup UNIGRID has shipped the first units of its Na+Casa residential battery, with the first systems now installed in homes across Europe.
