The growing need to store an increasing amount of renewable energy in a sustainable way has rekindled interest for sodium-ion battery technology, owing to the natural abundance of sodium. Presently, sodium-ion batteries based on Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 2 F 3 /C are the subject of intense research focused o...
