Sodium batteries are batteries that use sodium ions as charge carriers. Batteries charge and discharge by inserting and separating sodium ions between positive and negative electrodes. Sodium batteries work on basically the same principle as lithium batteries, except for a different charge carrier. Both sodium and lithium batteries are rechargeable batteries, but there are some differences and advantages between them. The chemical composition is different: The positive electrode material used in the sodium battery is a sodium compound, while the lithium battery uses a lithium compound as the positive electrode material. Sodium, by contrast, is more readily available and cheap, while lithium is scarce and expensive. Energy density difference: Sodium batteries have about half the energy density of lithium batteries, which means they are typically larger and heavier than lithium batteries of the same capacity. However, the energy density of sodium batteries is gradually i...
