Peak Energy debuts the US's first grid-scale sodium-ion battery, cutting costs and boosting reliability with passive cooling ...

Sodium-ion battery technology has been around since the 90s, but due to the batteries having a shorter life-span and more weight than their lithium-ion counterparts (sodium weighs more than ...

China’s breakthrough sodium-ion battery — priced at $10/kWh (Bloomberg NEF, 2025) — is a technical marvel. It’s a direct challenge to America’s lithium-dependent auto industry. For ...

Perhaps sodium-ion batteries will rule the battery roost someday, ousting lithium-ion as the preferred variety. After all, the list of positives is quite long and certainly justifies further ...

Introduction to Sodium-Ion Battery Technology Starting in 2015, prices for lithium almost tripled to more than $20,000 a tonne in just ten months. The metal is the central component of lithium-ion ...

Lagos — Sodium-ion and lithium-ion batteries share the same electrochemical principles, with sodium replacing lithium. While different cathodes, anodes, and electrolytes are required to ...

CATL’s high-voltage sodium-ion battery gets an energy density of 175 watt-hours per kilogram. That’s below the 200–300 Wh/kg range typical of lithium-ion batteries, but it’s enough to ...

Here, we have shown in principle that sodium-ion batteries have the potential to be a long-lasting and environmentally friendly battery technology. The right salt As PNNL explains, in batteries ...

Sodium-ion tech is 90% cheaper than lithium and already in 250K vehicles. Could it make U.S. EVs cheaper—and sideline Detroit’s battery strategy?

See batteries. Sodium-Ion Powered EV In 2023, Volkswagen-backed JAC Group in China introduced the Yiwei EV, the first sodium-ion battery electric vehicle. (Image courtesy of JAC.) ...

A month after Natron Energy began its first-of-kind sodium-ion battery mass production, Swedish sodium-ion developer Altris has identified a means of making the lithium-free batteries even more ...

HiNa Battery has produced what it is calling the world's first mass production run of sodium-ion batteries which don't use expensive lithium. The first batteries have a GWh capacity but this will ...
