Description (excerpt):

Sodium ion batteries are potentially safer, use more abundant materials than lithium ion batteries, and could become cheaper once manufacturing is scaled up. But their energy density is currently lower than lithium ion cells, limiting their uses to energy storage and certain low-range vehicles. The supply chain for sodium ion batteries also needs to be scaled up. Benchmark analysts explain the supply chain behind sodium ion batteries, and take a look at the potential applications.
