NATRON ENERGY UNVEILS BLUE RACK BATTERY CABINET FOR MISSION CRITICAL APPLICATIONS

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 13 (Bernama) -- Natron Energy Inc has announced the launch of the Blue Rack battery cabinet, the world’s first sodium-ion battery cabinet designed for mission-critical applications such as data centres, peak power-shaving and other industrial power environments.

In a statement today, it said powered by Natron’s new Blue Pack battery, the battery cabinet is available in 250 kilowatt (kW) and 500kW configurations.

“This is the longest-lasting, highest-power and above all, safest battery available for these applications,” chief business officer Robert Rogan said.

He said the sodium-ion technology in the Blue Rack outperformed lithium-ion and lead acid in every critical metric, especially safety.

Natron Energy said the Blue Pack and Blue Rack battery cabinet was designed with features including a wide operating temperature range, twice as powerful as lithium-ion batteries and full recharge in 15 minutes or less.

It said Natron’s sodium-ion batteries are the safest industrial battery technology available and are non-flammable, even when penetrated by a nail or exposed to flame.

“They suffer no damage or performance loss from short circuits or up to 35 per cent overvoltage overcharge,” it said.

Natron Energy manufactures sodium-ion battery products based on a unique Prussian blue electrode chemistry for a wide variety of industrial power applications.
