Sodium-ion batteries are widely used in energy storage

While some applications like energy storage have switched to LFP, until now sodium-ion batteries have not been produced at the same volume levels. CATL introduced its Naxtra line of batteries earlier in 2025 and has now announced plans for volume production of sodium-ion batteries this year, with integration into production. . The future of sodium-ion batteries holds immense potential as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional lithium-ion batteries by addressing critical challenges in energy storage, scarcity of lithium, and sustainability. NIBs offer clear advantages versus LIBs in terms of sustainability and cost, as they rely on sodium—an element that, unlike lithium, is abundant almost. .
