Sodium-Ion Battery Industry Booms Amid Global Energy Transition, NFPP Emerges as Mainstream Cathode Material

Published: May 22, 2025 15:52
Currently, with the global energy transition and the booming market of new energy vehicles (NEVs), sodium-ion batteries, as an emerging technology, are gradually attracting significant attention from the industry. Against this backdrop, traditional lithium battery cathode and battery cell enterprises are launching their own new sodium-ion battery products, while sodium-ion battery startups are accelerating the industrialisation process. This trend indicates that the sodium-ion battery industry chain is maturing rapidly, and the divergence in technological approaches is becoming increasingly pronounced.

From the perspective of product demonstration, sodium iron pyrophosphate (NFPP) is emerging as the mainstream cathode material direction. This material boasts advantages such as good structural stability, high reversible specific capacity, and long cycle life, thus offering broad application prospects in the preparation of sodium-ion batteries. Multiple enterprises have initially developed sodium-ion battery products using NFPP cathode materials, which have found small-scale demonstration applications in fields such as energy storage for power supply base stations, e-bikes, and data centers.
