This kind of technology is one of the reasons that sodium-ion is going to scale much faster than the people focused on relative prices of Lithium think. (It is MUCH harder to build passively cooled Li-ion BESS (if its even possible above very small sizes))

Moonwatt brings DC-coupled, passively cooled sodium-ion tech to solar projects - Energy Storage

The Dutch start-up, founded by former Tesla leaders, is taking a novel approach to sodium-ion battery technology, optimizing it for integration with solar power plants. Its technology is set to be deployed for the first time in a Dutch solar-plus-storage project later this year.

This is a good news story for India and the climate and suggests that other global south countries will do even better.

A graph illustrating that India is taking an "electrotech fast-track", industrializing by moving directly from a high bioenergy mix to high electrification, largely bypassing the heavy fossil fuel dependency previously taken by China and even more by the United States.

India’s electrotech fast-track: where China built on coal, India is building on sun | Ember

Cheap electrotech is enabling India to industrialise without the long fossil detour taken by China and the West.

Peak energy have some great tech and a great vision of BESS as cheap, super safe, silent, "install and forget" technology.
