What does Chinese-based CATL (Contemporary Amperex Technology Company Limited) the world’s largest producer of lithium-ion batteries, with a 36.8 per cent share think EV batteries are headed. It's not Solid State Lithium Batteries it's Sodium-Ion Batteries.
"Lithium from a solid-state battery would also react with oxygen if it broke apart in an accident, posing a significant safety risk to occupants, emergency services and other road users.“So people push on this, but I tell them CATL already spent 10 years [researching to make solid-state commercially viable]”.Zeng points to sodium-ion battery technology CATL has been working on since 2021 as the next advancement in electric car development.Sodium-ion batteries use ‘semi-solid’ materials to double the potential range of lithium-ion battery packs – akin to the claims of solid-state technology – yet without the volatility and cost."
