This article presents our comprehensive research on integrated technologies for novel sodium-ion battery energy storage system, covering thermal management, power converter design, monitoring strategies, and real-world application in a 2. We focus on sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) as a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries, given their abundant resources, enhanced safety, superior performance. . Sodium-ion batteries operate on a similar electrochemical principle, shuttling ions between two electrodes, yet they rely on sodium - an abundant and globally accessible element. Sodium resources are ample and inexpensive. However, current NIB technology still falls short of established LIB systems, such as those based on LiFePO4, in. .
