The Sodium Battery Revolution

Electric mobility is about to take a major step toward greater accessibility, and CATL, the world’s largest battery manufacturer, is leading this change. In 2026, the company will bring sodium-ion battery technology to life, an innovation that promises to transform the way we move and bring electric vehicles to more people than ever before.

A more sustainable and cost-effective alternative
Sodium batteries are made from a material that is far more abundant and cost-effective than lithium. Their extraction is simpler and does not depend on the trade tensions affecting Europe and the United States, reducing supply risks and costs. This advantage makes electric mobility more sustainable and accessible without compromising reliability or safety, opening the door to a broader and more democratic market.

Although sodium batteries have a lower energy density than lithium batteries, they stand out for their durability and stability. They can operate efficiently across a wide temperature range, from -40°C to 70 °C, making them ideal for all types of climates, from the coldest to the hottest. This capability ensures that electric vehicles maintain consistent performance, giving drivers confidence and peace of mind in any situation.

 

Ready for the change
At TERA Batteries, as CATL’s Official Technical Service Partner, we are convinced that sodium batteries are key to democratizing electric mobility. We are preparing to support our customers throughout this transition, providing specialized technical assistance and innovative solutions that facilitate the adoption of this technology.

The introduction of sodium batteries is not just a technological advance; it is an opportunity to transform mobility and make it fairer, more sustainable, and more accessible. Electric mobility for everyone is closer than ever, and CATL, together with TERA Batteries, is leading the way toward this promising future.
