PNNL’s official update describes LENS as a DOE-funded sodium-ion collaboration launched in November 2024 and led by Argonne. Its research spans battery components and prototype development.

Project scope

This is a research programme, so no factory capacity or storage-station energy is assigned. The source’s proposed prototype and performance goals remain development objectives until results are documented.

The date displayed here belongs to the research update. The original consortium announcement is separately linked for the start of the programme.
