[CATL and Alfen Sign Memorandum of Understanding]

CATL recently signed a memorandum of understanding with new energy integrator Alfen N.V. The two parties plan to deploy 5 GWh of Tianheng sodium-ion battery energy storage systems in the Netherlands and other Western European countries starting from 2027. This signing marks the first wave of on-the-ground applications of the Tianheng sodium-ion battery energy storage system in the European market. CATL will take this opportunity to accumulate localized experience in the application of sodium-ion batteries in European power grids, enhance product compatibility with European grid standards, thereby accelerating the large-scale popularization of sodium-ion energy storage technology in Europe and driving the zero-carbon and diversified energy transition in Europe.
