The global shift towards sodium-ion (Na-ion) technology is driven by four factors: safety, performance, economics, and supply chain. As the demand for stationary energy storage grows, the limitations of lithium – specifically its flammability and the volatile cost of raw materials – have become a bottleneck. Sodium-ion batteries, like Alsym’s NFPP+ chemistry, use earth-abundant materials that are more plentiful than lithium, offering lower cost and a safer path to energy security.
To ensure energy security, Alsym utilizes a non-FEOC compliant supply chain. By eliminating the need for cobalt, nickel, and lithium, Alsym provides a resilient FEOC compliant supply chain that protects battery security. Alsym prioritizes materials that are readily available in North America and from allied free-trade partners. By eliminating the need for cobalt, nickel, and lithium, which are often subject to geopolitical tensions – Alsym provides a resilient supply chain that protects our customers from price spikes and trade.
The Alsym Knowledge Hub serves as a central repository for technical whitepapers, data sheets, blogs, and infographics. Here, users can find information on the safety, performance, economics, and supply chain advantages.
