Goodbye Lithium! The New Sodium Ion Battery Will Change the World!
We are seeing significant improvements in terms of safety and cost! Sodium is much more abundant on Earth than Lithium, so will these batteries be cheaper? When will we see this technology available to everyday Americans? Imagine buying a backup battery for your home for less than $1,000! Wouldn't that be cool?!
Sodium-ion batteries are definitely preferable to Lithium-ion. Although you have completely overlooked Lithium Iron Phosphate, which is the current industry standard and can be cycled 100% without the same risk of thermal runaway. Nevertheless, sodium will be far less detrimental to the environment than lithium.
Sodium batteries have huge advantages over Lithium batteries, except for energy density. If you compare sodium batteries to Lead Acid batteries, the advantage is even greater. Imagine no more Lead pollution or sulfuric acid pollution.
And imagine a battery that you can leave on the shelf for over a year and it will still start your car or motorcycle! And imagine a battery that will last 5 to 10 times longer than a lead acid battery. And works at much lower and higher temperatures, and is as lightweight as Lithium. And all this for a cost just slightly higher than Lead Acid Batteries.
Sodium batteries will have the ability to have more charge cycles. Plus, a huge benefit is that Sodium batteries can be discharged to Zero volts and be recharged with no apparent damage. Another advantage is the charging rate. Sodium batteries can accept higher charge rates than Lithium batteries, so they can be charged faster without the need to wait for a long day of charging.
Except for electronic devices and EVs, Sodium batteries seem to address many of the challenges that limit Lithium batteries. For example, temperature extremes, safety, environment, cost, weight, charge cycles, charge rate, manufacturing ease, long shelf life, safe transport at zero volts, and many other advantages are the reasons we believe Sodium batteries will take over many sectors of the energy storage and starter battery markets.
Currently, most manufacturers sell lithium solar storage batteries at approximately $280/kWh. The initial price of Sodium Ion batteries at $77.00/kWh is truly a game changer!
With the occurrence of sodium SIB batteries, which will ease materials and supply chain shortages that will arise, various types will all have characteristics and cost profiles that will find different successful deployments.
It is always good to have competing products. The battery problem is not just a resource issue but also a size issue. When we can get a battery the size of a deck of cards to power a Tesla, then we are onto something. Hopefully, with the discoveries being made in conductive storage materials these days, we will have that soon. Then the sky's the limit.
We will need lots of new types of batteries and it will happen. One type will not "take over" but each will find a use. Cars might only use the highest energy density ones and grid storage might use other ones. With grid storage you don't have to worry about how big or heavy the battery is, but in cars you need the lightest pack that can store the most energy. Cars also need to charge quicker and for enough cycles without failing to make them useful. This is a good thing because grid battery demand won't be driving up demand (and cost) or car batteries
