Summary: Despite the advantages of reliability and high-energy density, the limited availability of lithium and safety concerns have prompted the exploration of new alternative systems, such as sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the progress of SIBs is hindered by poor electrochemical performances caused by sluggish Na-ion diffusion kinetics. To address these issues, new concepts and battery technologies, such as hybrid-ion and mixed-ion batteries, have been proposed. This review examines the significance of mixed-ion batteries and mixed-ion electrolytes for both aqueous and non-aqueous batteries.
