In this invited talk I will present our latest advances in Na and Al based batteries. In particular I will discuss advances in anodes for Na ion batteries from atomistic understanding to upscale at pauch cell level. These will be based on both hard carbons from biomass as well as Sn/C composites. I will pay particular atnetion to the SEI development in Na-ion batteries using different electrolytes and aditives based on analysis using electrochemistry coupled with mass spectroscopy to detect the gases evolved as well as ToF-SIMS and XPS on the electrodes to understand the chemical composition of the SEI.I will also discuss Al dual ion batteries and in particular the interface on the Al metal  due to corosion because of the electrolytes as well as the role of the curent colectors and the stainless steel casing of coin cells. 

Various in operando characterisation btechniquyes such as solid state NMR as well as Raman will be discussed for both na and al systems.
