I’m really hoping that this is exactly what we are all hoping for. This is extremely promising. The future is SO BRIGHT and I really appreciate all the hard work Electric ⚡️ Viking puts into these videos 👍👍😁
-
The shipping battery has fantastic specs, including 15 minute recharge time, but it is really for stationary systems. It weights 75kg for a 1230 watt/hour battery. It is also 256x269x951mm, much larger than the equivalent Li battery. It is a product you can buy now and the new factory will ramp up production. Size and weight will keep it out of vehicles until they get much lighter/smaller.
-
Sodium has advantages and disadvantages. It's always going to be heavier & less power dense this is only really going to affect sports cars. It's temperature & cost advantages will effect all vehicles.
-
Natron is not publicly traded. Their investors are multibillion dollar corporations that have structured investment deals crafted by lawyers, that will give them part ownership in the company. Until Natron has an IPO, there’s no “safe” way for individuals to invest. Small money goes in, small money goes “poof”.
-
Please give some analysis. This sounds more like a corporate marketing piece than a thoughtful evaluation of sodium-ion batteries. If there are no drawbacks at all, and Natron is the only or biggest player in America, the company would already be worth more than Tesla. Perhaps include a chart or some research on how sodium ion batteries are overcoming their inherent energy density, volume and weight disadvantages vs. lithium ion, or how they compare to lithium iron phosphate batteries?
-
That’s near me, less than 20 kilometers. I wonder where they’re building? I’ll see what I can find out.
-
So far, I see its application in stationary battery storage because of its low cost, safe from thermal runaway, invulnerability to sub zero and high outdoor temperature environments.
-
There are currently 27 sodium-ion battery plants in some phase of construction globally but these are mostly 1-5 gig size facilities. A 24 gig sized plant would be the biggest in the world, currently.
-
Natron is sodium carbonate decahydrate, FWIW.
-
Been a couple months since the last miracle battery story from electric Viking. Thanks for the laughs 😂
-
Sodium batteries have one disadvantage compared with Lithium. This follows from two facts -- that (a) a single Lithium ion stores more energy that a single Sodium ion, and (b) it also weighs less That means for auto and aero power Lithium will always beat sodium. Sodium, if cheaper, is viable for static storage (everything from a home power wall to grid stabilisers), and might be viable for ships and railways (to get electric trains past gaps in the power lines).

Great news a game changer
-
Electric ⚡ Viking's weekly 'game changing' news...
-
I don’t wanna hear it until it is produced. Tired of rumors Sam. Talk about tech or battery technology or charging tech that has been produced to the mass. Keeping our hopes up.
-
Finally, a game changer we had been waiting for. It's been so many days, when It used to be one every couple of days. Keep hunting for them Sam 😁
-
February 2024, Lithium fell to just over $13,000 per ton, June 2023, Sodium Carbonate cost around $290 per metric ton on the Shanghai Metals Market. Sodium is 1000 times more abundant than Lithium. Lithium is more than 44x more expensive than Sodium. I believe the key parts of the equation is that Sodium is more price stable and cheaper.
-
Sounds great, Sam! They should partner with desalinization plants for an endless supply of sodium (and other trace minerals). Solve two problems with one solution!
-
Viking, you make good content. Everywhere, the future is electric. I sure hope these intransigent Americans don't miss the bus!
-
The largest present-day demand for sodium-ion batteries will be to replace data center UPS batteries. These batteries are currently replaced every two to three years. Due to cost, they typically do not use Lithium.
-
This does remind me to unbreakable glass from Eastern Germany named 'Superfest'. When everyone had it, it couldn't be sold anymore. The same in in the US with a similar product with the difference that on a particular moment Steve Jobs was on front of the door and the deal they make is known under the name Gorilla Glass.
