With costs fast declining, sodium-ion batteries look set to dominate the future of long-duration energy storage, finds AI-based analysis that predicts technological breakthroughs based on global patent data.
Sodium-ion batteries for electric vehicles and energy storage are moving toward the mainstream. Wider use of these batteries could lead to lower costs, less fire risk, and less need for lithium
Sodium-ion batteries are still in an early stage with $0.26/kWh, but their commercial potential is high, when new electrolytes and even anodeless batteries are developed, according to the

The Commissioning of the Union Island Solar PV and Battery Energy Storage System on Monday 25th March 2019 has been hailed as a significant milestone in the energy sector of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
Battery technologies beyond Li-ion batteries, especially sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), are being extensively explored with a view toward developing sustainable energy storage systems for grid-scale applications due to the abundance of Na, their cost-effectiveness, and operating voltages, which are comparable to those achieved using intercalation

The battery storage system will help Mustique to increases the contribution of solar energy on the island and to reduce its carbon footprint. Mustique has the goal to increase renewable share to over 75% by 2024 and reduce the emissions by 22% by 2025, in line with St. Vincent & The Grenadines'' commitment to the Paris Climate Agreement.
Sodium-ion batteries are still in an early stage with $0.26/kWh, but their commercial potential is high, when new electrolytes and even anodeless batteries are developed, according to the report. Supercapacitors suffer from low energy density and high self-discharge rates.
With costs fast declining, sodium-ion batteries look set to dominate the future of long-duration energy storage, finds AI-based analysis that predicts technological breakthroughs based on global patent data. Sodium-ion batteries’ rapid development could see long-duration energy storage (LDES) enter mainstream use as early as 2027.
Analysing 30 LDES technologies, the research found sodium-ion batteries to hold the most promise due to their fast improvement rate – around 57% in 2024. They offer more efficiency in round-trip energy use, greater operational flexibility and lose less energy during storage and supply.
Most of the push by battery companies to build sodium-ion systems is happening in China, but some of it is happening in other markets, including a plan by California-based Natron Energy to open its first large plant in Rocky Mount, North Carolina.
Assuming a similar capex cost to Li-ion-based battery energy storage systems (BESS) at $300/kWh, sodium-ion batteries’ 57% improvement rate will see them increasingly more affordable than Li-ion cells, reaching around $10/kWh by 2028.
