Is a sodium ion battery a sustainable alternative?
The company says this makes it a more sustainable and cost-efficient alternative. In the USA, sodium-ion battery manufacturer Natron Energy and Clarios, a producer of low-voltage battery technologies for mobility, are collaborating on the production of the sodium-ion batteries.
Where is altris manufacturing a sodium ion battery?
In Sweden, Altris, a developer of cathode material for sodium-ion batteries, wants to implement its manufacturing in the city of Sandviken, almost 200 kilometres north of Stockholm, in cooperation with Sandvik Materials Technology, a developer and manufacturer of stainless steel, special alloys and carbide.
Why is sodium ion a good choice for energy storage?
Peter Carlsson concludes: “Our sodium-ion technology delivers the performance required to enable energy storage with longer duration than alternative battery chemistries, at a lower cost, thereby opening new pathways to deploying renewable power generation.
Can a new sodium ion cell assembly plant be made possible?
The project has been supported by the US Department of Energy’s ARPA-E agency through the SCALEUP program. The mass production of sodium ion cells should be made possible with new cell assembly equipment in the Clarios Meadowbrook plant.
