World's largest battery manufacturer achieves revolutionary breakthrough with new technology: 'A key development'


China-based CATL is now mass-producing sodium-ion batteries, bringing to fruition a technology that has the potential to replace lithium-ion.

On the heavy-duty side, Naxtra's 24-volt product is meant to replace lead-acid packs in dirty combustion vehicles, with an eight-year life cycle. Naxtra's passenger version ideally parks gas burners, preventing planet-warming tailpipe exhaust linked by medical experts to lung, heart, and other health risks, including dementia. The experts are trying to reduce the tens of millions of tons of deposits that Sustainability by Numbers reported will need to be mined and processed to power clean energy goals by 2040.
