The new product NAS MODEL L24 has been jointly developed by NGK and BASF and is characterised by a significantly lower degradation rate of less than 1 percent per year thanks to a reduced corrosion in battery cells.
The new ''advanced'' version of the sodium-sulfur (NAS) battery, first commercialised by Japanese industrial ceramics company NGK more than 20 years ago, offers a 20% lower cost of ownership compared to previous
The NAS® battery, manufactured by NGK Insulators Ltd. in Japan and distributed globally by BASF Stationary Energy Storage GmbH, is made up of molten sodium and sulfur electrodes as the basis of its technology. This offers six or more hours of continuous battery discharge, which can support 24/7 carbon neutral operations for large commercial
Since then, Energy-Storage.news has reported on various projects announced by both NGK and BASF, including a 3.6MWh NAS battery for Mongolia''s first solar-plus-storage project, a 950kW / 5.8MWh system at a BASF production facility in Antwerp, Belgium, and various deployments in Japan and South Korea.
NAS ®-Batterien im Überblick. NAS ®-Batterien bestehen aus Natrium als negative Elektrode und Schwefel als positive Elektrode.Als Elektrolyt wird eine Beta-Aluminiumoxid-Keramikhülse eingesetzt, die nur gegenüber Natriumionen durchlässig ist. Beim Entladen wird Natrium oxidiert und Schwefel reduziert, so dass Natriumpolysulfid (Na 2 Sx) entsteht. . Beim Ladevorgang
BASF New Business GmbH (BNB), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the German chemical group BASF, and Japanese ceramics manufacturer NGK Insulators, Ltd. (NGK) reported that the companies have signed a sales partnership agreement. The agreement gives BNB non-exclusive rights to sell NGK''s sodium-sulfur-based NAS battery through BASF''s global sales
The BASF NAS battery trial at our Nova Operation is an important way to field test the suitability of this unique technology in a mining environment and how this will contribute to a clean energy future." David Hawkins, Chair and Managing Director of BASF Australia and New Zealand, echoed this enthusiasm.
The intrinsic safety of NGK''s NaS battery system was comprehensively evaluated in a joint project conducted by BASF New Business GmbH, NGK Insulators and TÜV Rheinland Industrie Service GmbH as independent body. The intrinsic safety assesses the risk with regard to the occurrence of a fire and/or a

There is also an improved thermal management system in battery modules, which enables a longer continuous discharge. "These improvements allow projects to be implemented using fewer NAS battery containers over project running time, and with lower maintenance costs," says BASF. A sodium sulphur battery is a high-temperature battery.
BASF Stationary Energy Storage GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of BASF, and NGK INSULATORS, LTD. (NGK), a Japanese ceramics manufacturer, have released an advanced container- type NAS battery (sodium-sulfur battery) *1.
BASF will begin deliveries of NAS model L24 in the second half of 2024. The new product has been jointly developed by NGK Insulators, a Japanese ceramic manufacturer, and BASF Stationary Energy Storage. The new model and has a low degradation rate of less than 1% per year due to a reduced corrosion in battery cells.
BASF has partnered with NGK to develop and market the NAS technology since 2019, marking the German chemicals company’s first entry into the energy storage market and closely followed by the formation of its BASF Stationary Energy Storage subsidiary.
BASF and NGK have worked together since 2019. NGK has been deploying NaS battery units for over 20 years, mostly in Japan. In the early 2010s General Electric invested some $200 million in making a molten salt battery branded as Durathon. Its, then, CEO Jeff Immelt, believed that it would become a billion dollar business.
On behalf of BASF, TÜV Rheinland conducted a safety audit. Please find the summary here. All materials used in NAS ® batteries manufactured by NGK Insulators, Ltd. are abundant on earth. When used in combination with a fast Power Conversion System (PCS), NAS ® batteries can respond within milliseconds.
