Sodium-sulfur batteries are being developed by Ford Aerospace and Communications Corporation to meet the needs of electric utilities and for electric vehicle applications. Current emphasis for utility applications is on durability testing of load-leveling cells in modules of a 100-kWh battery. Electric vehicle cells characterized by high energy and power densities have been developed, and are being tested in modules of an electric vehicle battery.
