GE Chairman and CEO Jeff Immelt shows a sodium-metal halide battery cell at the press conference announcing the battery plant. GE says the planned facility will produce approximately 10 million sodium-metal halide cells each year—equivalent to 900 MWh of energy storage, or enough to support 1,000 GE hybrid locomotives.

This means lead-based batteries are essential in virtually all conventional ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicles, hybrid vehicles (mild, micro and Plug-in-HEV, PHEV) and full electric vehicles. Following the consultation the Commission is expected to release its opinion in the first half of 2015.

Car technology has never been in such a state of flux as it is now, and given lithium-ion batteries only really became a commercial big deal in the 1990s, the sudden shift towards cars powered by them is extraordinary. JMEV, another Chinese firm, also announced the rollout of a new EV powered by SIBs from Farasis Energy.
