Sodium Ion Battery Model now available in PyBaMM!

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are emerging as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to lithium-ion batteries. Now, with the integration of a physics-based SIB model into PyBaMM, researchers and developers have a new tool to accelerate SIB optimization and innovation. This blog post explores the history of SIBs, the intricacies of the new PyBaMM model, and the exciting possibilities it unlocks for the future of energy storage.

Physics-based models (1): what are they?

In the past few blogposts we have seen what physics-based models for batteries are about. However, not everything is done and dusted in this area. The aim of this post is to discuss the current main challenges (or what we believe are the main challenges) for physics-based models.

The PyBaMM Community

We care about the community that we’re building around open-source battery modelling. Come and be a part of it. PyBaMM is an open-source battery modelling framework which started in academia but has grown to be so much more. The founding team embraced the open-source philosophy of collaboration and worked hard in the early days to foster a strong community.

Our relationship with PyBaMM

At Ionworks we have a vision to build a complete software stack for batteries “powered by PyBaMM”. Our software solutions have PyBaMM at the core, and we are committed to supporting the growth of the open-source project.

Why we started Ionworks

Climate change is one of the most urgent challenges of our time, and batteries are a key bottleneck, from electric vehicles to renewable energy storage. At Ionworks, we are addressing this challenge by creating battery simulation software built on the open-source PyBaMM library.
