Northvolt’s new sodium-ion battery is based on a hard carbon anode and a cathode based on Prussian White – a cathode material derived from the pigment Prussian Blue and which is a sodium rich ...

Northvolt said on Tuesday that it had now validated a sodium-ion battery at the critical level of 160 watt hours per kilogramme, an energy density close to that of the type of lithium batteries ...

Swedish battery maker Northvolt has developed its first sodium-ion battery in partnership with Uppsala University spinoff Altris. The cell has been validated for an energy density of more than 160 ...

Sodium-ion battery production is in its nascent stage, but several battery makers, including BYD, CATL and Northvolt are betting on them for certain low-energy density applications.

“Sodium-ion batteries are a major advancement for large-scale energy storage,” Mossburg said in an interview. “They can last as much as 15,000 cycles compared to lithium-ion’s 8,000.” ...

Northvolt is continuing a strategic review of its business and could streamline further. But CEO Peter Carlsson says he still believes that the long-term outlook for the battery industry is promising.
