Recurring stories and special news packages from C&EN. Increases in the energy density of sodium-ion batteries means they are now suitable for stationary energy storage and low-performance electric vehicles. The abundance of raw material for making sodium-ion batteries is one edge they have over lithium-ion batteries.
“Na ion is no longer a niche technology; it is already being commercialized in China, and there are no fundamental barriers preventing large-scale production elsewhere,” Younesi says. Sodium-ion batteries have lost their cost advantage, but their performance exceeds that of lithium-ion batteries in some areas.
But the market research firm Benchmark Mineral Intelligence warns of hype surrounding sodium-ion. The company estimates that sodium-ion batteries make up less than 1% of the global battery market today and that their market share will at best reach 15.5% in the next 10 years.
The sodium-ion cells, which have an energy density of 175 Wh/kg, feature a cathode made of a sodium iron hexacyanoferrate material known as Prussian white. CATL’s goal is to produce a sodium-ion battery with an energy density that exceeds 200 Wh/kg. CATL claims it has already overcome one negative aspect of sodium-ion batteries: slow charging.
