CATL''s first-generation sodium battery generates 160-watt-hours per kilogram. This is 10% less energy than iron LFP batteries and 40% less than mass produced nickel batteries. CATL plans to increase the energy density of
On November 18, CATL, the world''s largest battery manufacturer, announced its second-generation sodium-ion battery, mass production of which would begin in 2027. The China-based company said the new battery has an energy density of 200 watt-hours per kilogram, which is an increase from 160 watt-hours per kilogram for the previous generation that
Sodium ion batteries are projected to have lower costs than lithium ion batteries because they use cheaper materials. Lithium ion batteries for solar energy storage typically cost between $10,000 and $18,000 before the federal solar tax credit, depending on the type and capacity. One of the most popular lithium-ion batteries is Tesla Powerwall. A
Small-scale lithium-ion residential battery systems in the German market suggest that between 2014 and 2020, battery energy storage systems (BESS) prices fell by 71%, to USD 776/kWh. With their rapid cost declines, the role of BESS for stationary and transport applications is gaining prominence, but other technologies exist, including pumped

Detailed cost comparison and lifecycle analysis of the leading home energy storage batteries. We review the most popular lithium-ion battery technologies including the Tesla Powerwall 2, LG RESU, PylonTech, Simpliphi, Sonnen, Powerplus Energy, plus the lithium titanate batteries from Zenaji and Kilo
Iron LFP batteries could get to $50/kWh with really high volume and efficiency at the cell level. The future low price of sodium ion would make for insanely cheap fixed storage products like the Tesla Megapack and Powerwalls. They also do not have practical material limits. There is no shortage of salt or soda ash.
With sodium''s high abundance and low cost, and very suitable redox potential (E (Na + / Na) ° =-2.71 V versus standard hydrogen electrode; only 0.3 V above that of lithium), rechargeable electrochemical cells based on sodium also hold much promise for energy storage applications.The report of a high-temperature solid-state sodium ion conductor – sodium β″
Solar batteries vary in price, depending on the type and storage capacity (how much energy it can hold). The cheapest start at around £1,500, but can be as much as £10,000 – though on average, you''ll typically pay around £5,000 for a standard battery system.
Sodium ion batteries have the lowest energy density out of the group, which means they take up more space than lithium ion batteries. NMC batteries have the highest energy density. A 10 kilowatt-hour (kWh) lithium ion battery will take up less space inside your home than a 10 kWh sodium ion battery would, even though they have the same capacity. This could be an issue if
With costs fast declining, sodium-ion batteries look set to dominate the future
The analysis believes that sodium ion batteries have the following main advantages in the field of energy storage for home use: It is estimated that the cost of sodium ion batteries after mass production is about 0.3–0.5 RMB per Wh, and the current cost is about 0.5–0.7 RMB per Wh, which is basically the same as LFP batteries.
Wider deployment and the commercialisation of new battery storage technologies has led to rapid cost reductions, notably for lithium-ion batteries, but also for high-temperature sodium-sulphur ("NAS") and so-called "flow" batteries. Small
The LFP battery showed the highest cell price (230 EUR·(kW·h) −1), household energy storage, and industrial energy storage. In 2018, HiNa demonstrated a low-speed EV powered by SIBs; in 2019, HiNa successfully installed the world''s first 30 kW/100 kW·h SIB energy storage system (Fig. 8 (c)) [77]. 3.3. Aquion Energy, Inc.

The search for advanced EV battery materials is leading the industry towards sodium-ion batteries. The market for rechargeable batteries is primarily driven by Electric Vehicles (EVs) and energy storage systems. In India, electric two-wheelers have outpaced four-wheelers, with sales exceeding 0.94 million vehicles in FY 2024.
More to the point, the new sodium battery is aimed at storing energy for a period of 10 to 24 hours. That’s significant because it meets the long duration energy storage goal of the US Department of Energy. Currently, lithium-ion batteries only provide for about four hours of storage.
One key area of interest is sodium, the earth-abundant ingredient that makes up about 40% of simple table salt. Sodium is heavy, though. So is salt, for that matter. Nevertheless, sodium batteries are relatively inexpensive and free from thorny supply chain issues, and they are beginning to bust into the mainstream market.
With costs fast declining, sodium-ion batteries look set to dominate the future of long-duration energy storage, finds AI-based analysis that predicts technological breakthroughs based on global patent data. Sodium-ion batteries’ rapid development could see long-duration energy storage (LDES) enter mainstream use as early as 2027.
Analysing 30 LDES technologies, the research found sodium-ion batteries to hold the most promise due to their fast improvement rate – around 57% in 2024. They offer more efficiency in round-trip energy use, greater operational flexibility and lose less energy during storage and supply.
Meanwhile, Argonne notes that stationary energy storage is another ripe market for sodium-ion batteries. Sure enough, over at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory another kind of sodium battery is taking shape, which deploys a combination of aluminum and sodium in the form of a molten salt.
