Sodium-ion Battery delivered to Canada

Sodium ion battery is one of most well developed battery technology in last 3 years, especially during the time of 2021 to 2022, when the cost of lithium battery was very high. at that time, price of Li2CO3 was reach history highest price, nearlly 85,000US$ each ton, which cased price of Lithium battery increased 50-55%. clients who purcase electric vehicle which installed 60-80kwh lithium battery pack has to pay extra 3,500 to 4500US$. 

 price of Sodium ion battery was 50% cheaper than lithium battery at that time, was considered as a good alternative of lithium battery at that time. leading lithium battery manafucturer like CATL, BYD, were researching and developing sodium technology  and invest facilties to produce the sodium ion battery to hedging high cost of Li2CO3. 

  Price of Li2CO3 was rapid decreasing since 2023,which takes price of lithium battery decreased over 35%. now price of the Sodium battery is very similar to price of lithium (LiFePO4) battery.

weight of 3.2V 314Ah LiFePO4 battery is 5.6kg so energy density of LiFePO4 battery is 180wh/kg. weight of 3.1V 210Ah Sodium ion battery is 4.7kg, enegy density of Sodium ion battery is 140wh/kg. because enegy density of lithium (LiFePO4) is around 28% high than Sodium battery, more and more enegy storage system and electric vehicle is using lithium (LiFePO4) battery at this moment. sodium battery still has some advantages vs LiFePO4 battery as following: 

1. price of sodium ion battery is lower than LiFePO4 battery,
2. working temperature range of sodium ion battery is more wide than LiFePO4 battery
3. sodium battery is more safe than LiFePO4 battery.
4. thermal runaway temerpature of sodium battery is much higher than LiFePO4 battery.

most important but not last advantage of sodium ion battery is that the Na+ is much cheaper and easier available from the earth than Li+.

We deliver 6pcs 210Ah Sodium ion battery cells by FedEx to a clients from Canada today.
