At its Super Tech Day, CATL revealed three innovative battery technologies set to transform energy storage: the Naxtra Sodium-Ion Battery, the Freevoy Dual-Power Architecture, and the Shenxing Superfast Charging Battery(LFP). These advancements introduce the "Multi-Power Era," combining sustainability, flexibility, and exceptional performance.

Naxtra Sodium-Ion Battery: A Cold-Weather Champion and Sustainable Power Source

The Naxtra Sodium-Ion Battery, the world’s first mass-produced sodium-ion EV power unit, represents a major step away from lithium-ion dependency. By harnessing the abundance and safety of sodium, CATL has created a battery that delivers impressive features:

● Broad Temperature Range: Operates between -40°C and +70°C, retaining 90% power at -40°C, even at a 10% state of charge (SOC).

● High Energy Density: With 175Wh/kg, it boasts the highest energy density for sodium-ion batteries, comparable to lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries.

● Long Lifespan and Safety: With over 10,000 charge cycles and intrinsic material-level safety, the Naxtra is built to last and minimize environmental impact.

● Heavy-Duty Truck Battery: This sodium-ion battery also offers a 61% reduction in lifecycle costs versus traditional lead-acid batteries, featuring an 8-year lifespan and reliable one-click starts after prolonged dormancy.

Freevoy Dual-Power Architecture: Tailored Solutions for Energy Flexibility

CATL’s Freevoy Dual-Power Battery introduces a versatile system that allows for optimized energy solutions tailored to specific needs. This system features:

● Self-Forming Anode Technology: Boosts volumetric energy by 60%, improving overall battery performance.

● Dual-Energy-Zone Design: Combining high and low voltage zones to provide enhanced safety and efficiency.

● Multiple Chemistry Combinations: From Sodium-LFP to NCM hybrids, this system offers adaptability and flexibility in battery chemistry.

● Extended Range and Power: With configurations capable of achieving a 1,500 km range and 1MW peak power output, it ensures superior performance for various driving needs.

● Scenario-Specific Optimization: Tailors energy use for daily driving or long-range excursions, offering a personalized experience for users.

Shenxing Superfast Charging: A Leap Forward in Speed and Cold-Weather Resilience

The upgraded Shenxing Superfast Charging Battery is a game-changer for rapid EV charging. With its upgraded capabilities, it provides:

● Blistering Charging Speed: Achieves 800 km of range and 1.3MW peak charging speed (equivalent to 2.5 km per second).

● Extreme Cold Charging: Capable of charging between -10°C and 50°C, with 5-80% SOC achieved in just 15 minutes—twice as fast as industry standards.

● Sustained Output: Maintains an impressive 830 kW output even when the battery is at a low charge, ensuring continuous performance.

CATL’s vision extends beyond electric vehicles, aiming to revolutionize sectors like aviation, shipping, and renewables. Its focus on adaptable, user-centric designs is reshaping energy storage into an all-scenario ecosystem that meets the evolving needs of consumers and industries alike. These innovations are paving the way for a sustainable, efficient energy future.
