Salt powered scooters: By now you must have heard about a scooter powered by petrol, diesel or lithium battery, but in the coming time, “salt -powered scooters” will also be seen running on the streets. These scooters made on the basis of sodium-ion battery technology are now appearing on the streets of China.
Actually, the sodium used in it is extracted from SEA Salt, which is not only cheap but also available in large quantities.
How does the vehicle run from a salt ion battery?
Traditional electric scooters usually use lithium-ion or lead-acid batteries, but sodium ion batteries are being installed in scooters with new technology, which is prepared from sea salt (C-satter). This battery technology is not only more accessible than lithium, but is also considered safe for the environment. The cost of sodium batteries is lower than lithium batteries and can be charged very fast. For example, they can be charged from 0 to 80 percent in only 15 minutes. Due to this new technology, the price of scooters is also very low, which are being sold between Rs 35,000 to 51,000 (about 400 to 660 US dollars) in China.
Where was the live performance for the first time?
The first public performance of these salt -powered scooters was performed outside a shopping mall in Hangzo city, China. Specially designed charging stations were also installed on this occasion, where the battery of these scooters was charged up to 80% in just 15 minutes. This live demo was proof that sodium battery technology is not only practical, but also fully capable of general use.
Cheaper and smart options compared to lithium
In today’s time, when the demand for electric vehicles is increasing rapidly worldwide, limited availability and high cost of lithium has become a major concern. Apart from this, lithium mining also damages the environment. Conversely, sodium is a cheaper, widely available and environmental-elastic option, making this technique more sustainable.
When will the salt -running scooters come to India?
Currently, research on sodium batteries in India is in an initial stage. However, government and private companies such as Ola, Ather and Hero Electric are now seriously paying seriously to alternative battery techniques. As soon as this technology is commercially available in India, it can have many big benefits.
