Technical FAQs 4

Are sodium ion batteries the future of energy storage?

Sodium ion batteries (SIBs) are emerging as one of the most promising candidates for large-scale energy storage due to the abundance of sodium.

What is the largest sodium ion battery storage system in the world?

This project opened on June 30, 2024, with battery cells supplied by Zhongke Haina, making it the largest sodium-ion battery energy storage system in the world. The storage system consists of 42 battery containers and 21 integrated booster and conversion machines, in addition to a 110 kV booster station.

Will a 'terawatt-hour' sodium-ion battery industry form by 2030?

HiNa Battery’s general manager Li Shujun has claimed that the a ‘terawatt-hour’ sodium-ion battery industry will gradually form by 2030, Yicai Global added. The first phase of the world's largest sodium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS), in China, has come online.

Why is China investing so much on sodium ion technology?

Energy-Storage.news has been told anecdotally that one reason China is investing so heavily on sodium-ion technology is because of fears that, long-term, it could start to be cut out of the lithium supply chain.
