Sodium-ion batteries now competitive in niche markets

Sodium-ion batteries are emerging as a safer, lower-cost alternative to lithium-ion, with a recent international study highlighting their competitiveness in stationary energy storage. The research shows that ongoing investment and supply-chain development could enable broader adoption within the next decade.Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are increasingly framed as a sustainable alternative to lithium-ion (Li-ion) storage, particularly as global lithium demand is expected to exceed supply by 2028, according to a recent report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). Despite this potential, ...
