Sigenergy and TH Energy have jointly compiled an overview of the current safety standards for battery storage systems. However, the new report also shows the path towards greater system safety.
The battery industry is steadily moving forward: With the increasing electrification of vehicles and the expansion of renewable sources of energy, the global demand for batteries is growing. New technologies, as well as strategic and geopolitical decisions, will impact the battery and electromobility sectors, creating both opportunities and challenges.
Sodium-ion batteries have several advantages over conventional batteries. They contain no critical raw materials such as lithium or cobalt - and could make stationary energy storage and electromobility much more cost-effective. There is still a lack of the necessary energy storage materials for production.
