The element lithium is used widely in batteries because it results in long-lasting, stable energy storage. However, it’s a finite resource, so researchers are hard at work trying to identify alternate materials to use in battery production. Using the Canadian Light Source at the University of Saskatchewan, a team from McGill University has recently come up with a way to replace most of the lithium in batteries with sodium.The element lithium is used widely in batteries because it results in long-lasting, stable energy storage.
