Adopt Sodium-Ion Powered Solutions to the U.S. Energy Landscape
Solve Pressing Challenges for the U.S. Energy Storage Industry
Why Sodium vs Lithium?
Sodium batteries surpass lithium counterparts, offering diverse advantages and emerging as superior solutions in specific applications.
Cost Efficiency & Availability
Sodium reserves are $2/kg vs $26/kg for Lithium. 11 M Tons produced in US vs 6k Tons for Lithium.
Safety
Sodium ion electrochemical reactions are less volatile, sodium ion batteries have a higher thermal runaway temperature.
Temperature Range
Sodium ion have a lower solvation energy, and can work around minus 20 Celsius without losing more than 10% of its capacity.
Sustainability
Sodium ion batteries are clean and environmentally friendly. Mining and recycling of Lithium both have severe impact to our environment.
Storage & Transportation
Sodium Ions do not react with aluminum, and thus allow sodium ion batteries to be stored and transported at zero charge.
Energy Density
Sodium Ion batteries can reach 90% of Lithium Ion Phosphate energy density and will continue going up with my technology development.
Challenges We Face
Pressing Challenges to the U.S. Energy Storage Industry
Manufacturing Capacity
In 2020, the battery manufacturing capacity in U.S. is only 7% of the world capacity, less than one tenth of the capacity in China.
Manufacturing Capacity
In 2020, the battery manufacturing capacity in U.S. is only 7% of the world capacity, less than one tenth of the capacity in China.
Sustainability
With available technologies, we only recycle 5% of lithium from lithium ion batteries. Cheapest recycling solutions cost $5.8 per kg of batteries.
