![]() There are three battery chemistries that align well with mission-critical electrical systems: lead acid, lithium-ion, and sodium-ion. It is therefore worth looking at which technologies offer the best mix of performance, availability, life cycle and cycle-rate capabilities, energy and power density (two different characteristics), not to mention reliability, safety, sustainability and efficiency. Recent advancements in battery chemistry are opening new horizons in terms of the design and operation of data centers and other critical facilities. In view of these limitations, essential facilities are designed and operated with high levels of redundancy in mind.īut things are changing. However, despite significant efforts to improve them, these workhorses present shortcomings in terms of electrical life, power density and peak power. Jack Pouchet Natron Energy Santa Clara, CA, United States, Dave Sterlace ABB Data Center Solutions Philadelphia, PA, United States, acid batteries have been a mission-critical element for decades in electrical system applications ranging from healthcare and communications to manufacturing and data centers. Such batteries can reliably and safely provide tens of thousands of cycles at very high peak-power discharges with no potential risk of combustion, explosion, or outgassing, thus allowing them to be deployed in locations unthinkable for lead and lithium battery types. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.A new sodium-ion battery is set to free up space and enhance design flexibility in data centers and other mission-critical facilities. Natron Energy is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. Natron Energy specifically rejects, and denies any liability under, any agreement purporting to be accepted based on negative consent, negotiation with a candidate, performance, or any means other than the signature of an authorized representative of the Company. Such agreement must be pre-approved by Natron Energy and executed by an authorized representative of the Company. Natron Energy will not pay a fee for any placement resulting from the receipt of an unsolicited resume, unless in connection with a written agreement with the Company then in effect. Any unsolicited resumes, including partial resumes, candidate profiles, and candidate details or information, sent to Natron Energy or its personnel will be treated as public information provided free of any charges or fees. (“Natron Energy” or the “Company”) does not accept unsolicited resumes from professional recruiters, third-party recruiting or staffing agencies, placement services, or any other source other than directly from a candidate. ![]() Natron Energy has raised over $155M in venture capital investment to date, as well as $35M in non-dilutive funding to support its supply chain scale up. The company has signed over $225M/year in master sales agreements and LOIs, and scale-up to mass production is now underway. Natron Energy’s current production is sold out for the next 12 months. Its products are based on sodium-ion cells containing Prussian blue electrodes that deliver unique power, cycle life, and safety: full discharge and recharge in just minutes and up to 50,000 deep discharge cycles from a nonflammable, fault tolerant system. ![]() ![]() Occasional travel may be required ($50B markets including commercial and residential grid storage.
