Are sodium-ion batteries really cheaper than lithium-ion, or are hidden manufacturing and system costs undermining their biggest selling point? Matt Fernley speaks with Max Reid, Head of Battery Technology and Cost Research at CRU, to challenge some of the biggest assumptions in battery technology and economics. They explore why solid-state batteries may struggle to compete in EVs, whether sodium-ion can challenge LFP, and why AI data centres and humanoid robotics could create unexpected demand for emerging battery chemistries. Max also shares CRU's latest modelling on rising battery cell costs, LMR vs LFP economics, China's manufacturing advantage, and where capital may be misallocated across the battery supply chain.
