Then you should take a look at the basics of chemistry. Sodium batteries can never reach the energy density of lithium simply because of their chemical properties.The 200 Wh/kg that BYD is pricing - if they reach it, because the current 160 Wh/kg are based on the module mix with lithium - will not even reach a quarter of what is achieved with solid state batteries. Here, the forecasts are 800 Wh/kg with lithium. Man kann in der Wissenschaft keine wünsche haben, die von der Chemie her schon unmöglich sind. In science, you can't have wishes that are already impossible from a chemical point of view.
