Sodium-ion cells are in the very early stages of mass production, with the first commercial systems being available for purchase in 2023. Some typical characteristics of sodium-ion cells include: The table below provides an overview of some of the companies working around Sodium-ion battery production, and details of their chosen cell designs:
Many of the battery components in both sodium-ion and lithium-ion batteries are similar due to the similarities of the two technologies. This post provides a high-level overview of sodium-ion battery materials. Cathode materials Anode materials Metallic anodes are also being researched for Na-ion batteries, although these are not yet being considered for commercial applications. Electrolytes … Read more
