Sodium-Ion Battery Market, By Application (Stationary Energy Storage and Transportation), and By Geography (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa)- Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022 - 2030
The basic principle behind the sodium-ion battery is that ions transfer from the negative electrode to the positive one through a process called electrolysis. These charged ions then flow between the two electrodes. As the cell is charged, the voltage of the battery increases. However, the electrochemical reaction slows down with time. While sodium-ion batteries haven't quite reached the maturity stage, their rapid development suggests they may soon challenge lithium-ion in the rechargeable battery market. With further investment, the sodium-ion battery technology will be able to provide a cost-effective solution for large-scale electrical energy storage.
Market Dynamics:
The growing demand for electric vehicles is a primary driver in the Sodium-Ion Battery market. Electric vehicles are a popular way to reduce carbon emissions. Governments are responding to this trend by pushing the sale of Electric Vehicles and implementing stricter rules regarding alternative energy sources. As more companies look to develop electric vehicles, sodium-ion batteries will continue to gain popularity. They are more environmentally friendly and can deliver more energy than lithium-ion batteries.
However, the market is likely to be hindered by factors such as reducing cost of lithium-ion batteries, lack of industrial supply chains and high weight disadvantage of sodium-ion battery compared to lithium-ion battery.
