Molten Salt Battery Innovations: What to Expect by 2030

The Environmental Blog

What is a Molten Salt Battery? A molten salt battery (MSB) is a high-temperature energy storage system that uses molten (liquid) salts as the electrolyte. These salts become electrically conductive when heated above their melting point, typically between 200°C and 600°C depending on the chemistry. MSBs have a metal anode (like sodium or calcium), a salt-based electrolyte, and a metal or salt cathode (such as sulfur or antimony) separated by a solid ceramic electrolyte like beta-alumina.
