Clarios sodium-ion batteries
Sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries offer a sustainable solution for the evolving demands of modern vehicles. Made from abundant materials such as salt, wood, iron, and air, they are inherently easy to recycle and free from conflict minerals and toxic elements. To accelerate the development of this technology, Clarios has partnered with Altris, a leader in sodium-ion cathode material and battery cell technology, to bring advanced Na-ion solutions to the low-voltage automotive market—an essential system for powering critical vehicle functions.
