Natron Energy, a manufacturer of sodium-ion batteries, and Clarios International Inc., a manufacturer of low-voltage advanced battery technologies for mobility, will collaborate to manufacture the first mass-produced sodium-ion batteries. In 2021, Natron released the world’s first UL-listed sodium-ion battery product.

Flowchart of Molten Sodium Upgrading process. A new company, Field Upgrading (Calgary, Alberta), has been formed dedicated to developing and commercializing the Molten Sodium Upgrading (MSU) technology. When electricity is applied to the ceramic membrane, elemental sodium is extracted through the membrane and recycled to the process.

Their energy density is as little as 10 percent that of lithium-ion batteries. To shrink them enough to fit in electric vehicles, you need to raise their energy density to that of lithium-ion batteries. In comparison, lithium-ion batteries cost around $138/kWh. Here’s what that means for an EV.
