According to CATL's Wu Kai, the company's new sodium-ion batteries will be the most resilient ones on offer.

China’s largest battery maker, Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited , claims it has unlocked unprecedented extreme weather performance with its sodium-ion batteries.

However, sodium-ion batteries are better in a few key areas. They show great potential, as they are energy efficient and fast charging. They are also stable in the face of extreme temperatures, there is less risk of thermal runaway, and they are not prone to overheating. According to CATL’s Wu Kai, the company’s new sodium-ion cells will be the most resilient on offer when they come to market next year. Out of the many benefits listed above, the new cells push the boundary when it comes to stability in extreme temperatures.

Despite the benefits of sodium-ion batteries over lithium-ion, the latter remain more accessible due to economies of scale.
