Sodium ions are a highly active and efficient charge carrier, making sodium ion batteries a viable power storage option. Reversibility, good electrochemical properties, fast responsiveness, and other attributes distinguish sodium-ion batteries. Electrolyte material, barrier material, encapsulating material & separators, and other materials are the primary raw materials used in sodium-ion batteries. Sodium ion batteries are widely used in LED flashlights by electronics end consumers. Furthermore, sodium ion batteries are rapidly being employed for power storage applications in a variety of end-use sectors, ranging from household electrical and electronics to industrial and automotive. Given the importance of these applications and the relative ease of production, demand for sodium ion batteries is likely to rise throughout the projection period, offering considerable growth possibilities for manufacturers worldwide.
The rise in demand for renewable energy has fueled the growth of energy storage services. The rapidly expanding market share of renewable energy in the power-generating industry has increased the demand for low-cost batteries. The pandemic has triggered renewable energy reforms and policies encouraging the building of renewable power facilities. The major industrialized and developing countries have established many objectives to reach zero emissions by 2050, which are expected to aid the expansion of the solar, wind, and electric car sectors. According to the IEA, renewable energy has shown promising growth in recent years and is anticipated to grow by more than 10% by 2022. As a result, worldwide carbon emissions from the electricity industry have decreased little. In 2019, the world added a record 295 gigatons of extra renewable energy capacity.
Furthermore, the increased building of offshore wind power facilities throughout the world has aided the development of the sodium-ion battery industry. Furthermore, the fast expansion in renewable energy output throughout the world has put a strain on power distribution, driving up demand for sodium ion batteries. The presence of the variables is anticipated to accelerate the global expansion of the sodium ion battery market.
Manufacturing sodium ion batteries for electric cars necessitates a large initial investment as well as costly continuing R&D operations, limiting the market's entry of new companies. This is anticipated to have a negative impact on the worldwide automotive sodium ion battery industry. Governments have established tough standards for producing batteries for electric cars, which is expected to hinder the global industry. Furthermore, the automotive sodium ion battery industry is projected to be hampered by high import tariffs on electric car batteries and the volatility of raw material costs.
Sodium ion batteries (SIBs) have drawn a lot of attention as potential lithium-ion battery substitutes owing to the copious availability of raw ingredients and low cost. Significant improvements in the manufacturing of SIBs with exceptional cycle stability and high-rate performance have been accomplished in recent years via intensive investigation of the sodium storage mechanism and the development of innovative electrode and electrolyte materials.
Declining electrochemical performance as a result of growing demand for grid-scale energy storage, space exploration, and national security applications is the primary issue for SIBs at low temperatures. The low conductivity of the electrolyte, the decreased rate of ion diffusion in the active materials, and the decreased rate of charge transfer at the electrode/electrolyte interface are the factors that affect SIBs' poor performance at low temperatures. During the anticipated period, the aforementioned factor is anticipated to restrain the growth of the sodium ion battery market.
North America: Key Region of Investment for Manufacturers
