Sodium and lithium-ion batteries may look similar on paper, but important differences in materials, performance, cost, and sustainability distinguish them.
Sodium-ion batteries aren't all that different from lithium-ion batteries in terms of how they operate. Both store and release energy by moving charged particles between negative and positive electrodes. The difference is mainly in the composition and which elements supply the ions.
