IN CONVERSATION

India’s EV Future Beyond Lithium

Abishek Reddy CEO Naxion Energy India KEY HIGHLIGHTS Sodium-ion batteries reduce India’s EV import dependence and strengthen domestic energy security.

Higher thermal stability makes sodium-ion safer and better suited for India’s harsh operating conditions.

Localized sodium-ion supply chains can lower EV costs across two-, three-, and heavyvehicle segments.

Why India’s automotive sector must diversify battery chemistry to reduce import dependence and EV safety risks.

With increasing adoption of EV not just in the consumer vehicle segment but also in the industrial, agricultural and heavy-duty, India’s demand for batteries is set to explode. The challenge is that 99% of the cells used to manufacture those batteries are still imported.

Since India has very limited Lithium reserves we remain heavily dependent on foreign supply chains for one of the most critical components of our future mobility and energy systems.

This creates a major risk. If the global lithium supply is disrupted due to geopolitics, export restrictions or pricing shocks, India’s EV and manufacturing growth would be severely impacted.

Adopting Sodium ion chemistry helps us avoid the above risk. We can localize 95% of the raw material supply chain that goes into its manufacture. This can help us to finally start building true domestic cell manufacturing capacity and to not only protect ourselves from external supply chains shocks but to also strengthen economic resilience.

How sodium-ion batteries can address cost, thermal stability, and sustainability challenges in EVs. Sodium ion can address the cost issue due to the abundance of its raw materials. This will not only reduce the processing costs due to shorter supply chains but also bringing down the absolute cost of the cells.

Their inherent material properties make it more stable during charging and discharging. They also have higher onset temperatures for thermal runaway making them perfectly safe for EVs.

17

The extraction process of Sodium Chloride, the primary component of Sodium ion cells is orders of magnitude more sustainable than the extraction of Lithium. Alongside Sodium, even the other components of Sodium ion cells are extremely abundant and have very sustainable extraction processes.

The roadmap to building a fully local sodium-ion mobility supply chain—from materials to packs.

This begins from growing the cell manufacturing industry. Invest in cell level research to promote local chemistries. Partner with international organization to license the technology and set up pilot manufacturing plants. This will help not only develop the local cell economy but will also help grow the technical talent. Parallelly the government should invest in organizing the supply chain and industrial processing ecosystems.

Battery manufacturers will develop as local cell pricing becomes more economical helping pave the way for a fully localized pack. We started off with cell level research for the first few years of our company and then decided to get into the pack level. This allowed us to create a market for Sodium ion batteries via our Energy Storage Systems and EV batteries and work backwards to cell manufacturing.

What is the role of sodium-ion in enabling reliable electric two-wheelers, three-wheelers, commercial cargo vehicles, and farm/industrial machinery.

Other than having the manufacturing advantage of a fully localised supply chain and hence cheaper cost. Sodium ion cells also have multiple performance advantages such as fast charging and discharging. Increased safety and wider operating temperatures.

The requirements of this segment are safety, high performance, low maintenance, rugged and low cost. SIBs offer all the above with their high safety standards, fast charging/discharging and wider operating temperatures.

This makes them very well suited for two wheelers with smaller batteries but faster charging is important. For cargo and farm/industrial vehicles fast discharging is necessary when there is an increased power demand. Another issue with proliferating EVs in India’s harsh climates is the safety. SIBs are extremely non flammable and have a much lower rate of thermal runaway.We have seen very high promise in our 2-wheeler and 3-wheeler battery packs when tested in extreme conditions.

All of the above results in lower maintenance, lower cost of ownership and longer life.

What opportunities to electrify heavy vehicles and specialized automotive systems with safer, low-cost batteries?

The opportunities in these fields are immense.

Low cost SIBs will make it extremely economical to electrify heavy machinery. As it will be the obvious choice compared to diesel power.

Electrifying these vehicles will cut fuel costs and reduced servicing and upkeep. The safety benefits that SIB provide will also allow these machines to have reduced risk of breakdowns, fires and other safety hazards.

Due to its ability to fast charge will allow for lesser downtime and better total cost of ownership.We have been actively prototyping our Sodium-ion battery systems in converted forklifts, agricultural harvesters, and other heavy specialized vehicles — and the performance results have been exceptional. We plan to launch our range of heavy vehicle batteries within the next year.
