Large‐scale, cost‐effective and highly‐efficient energy storage devices are essential for smart grid and renewable energy. Room‐temperature sodiumion batteries have attracted great attention for this application due to their low cost. On page 156 , Dongfeng Chen, Wen Chen, Yong‐Sheng Hu and co‐workers propose a promising carbon‐coated Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 cathode exhibiting superior sodiumstorage performance. When coupled with hard carbon anodes, the theoretical energy density is estimated to be 180 Wh/kg.
