In the eyes of Varta’s Head of Technology, sodium-ion batteries can make an important contribution to the decarbonisation and electrification of many areas in addition to existing technologies in order to actively shape the energy and mobility transition.
To solve these problems, the EU-funded NAIMA project has brought promising sodium (Na)-ion battery technology, an LIB alternative, out of the lab and into industry in two highly successful and timely use cases: Industry 4.0 and renewable energy.
Sodium batteries are an approach that has re-emerged in recent years and would bring a clear cost reduction in the electric car sector. We recently asked Markus Lienkamp, Professor of Automotive Engineering at the Technical University of Munich, what role the sodium-ion battery can play in electromobility. You can read his answer here.
CATL is also planning to produce sodium-ion cells, as is the Chinese company Zoolnasm. In February, we also recently reported that the JAC subsidiary Yiwei exported electric vehicles with sodium-ion batteries for the first time. varta-ag.com
You can read his answer here. In China, the big players are increasingly turning to sodium-ion batteries: at the end of 2023, BYD and Huaihai signed a contract to build a plant for sodium-ion batteries in China with an annual capacity of 30 GWh. CATL is also planning to produce sodium-ion cells, as is the Chinese company Zoolnasm.
However, advanced and cost-effective alternatives to existing technologies are developed in Asia. The EU-funded NAIMA project intends to develop and test new-generation sodium-ion cells and prove that they are highly competitive, safe, solid and the most cost-effective solution to replace lithium-based technologies.
