Is Sodium-Ion the next LFP?
Sodium-ion crossed LFP on improvement rate in 2023. The same early warning LFP gave before disrupting NMC. We will show you where this goes before 2030, live.
Is Sodium-Ion the next LFP?
Sodium-ion crossed LFP on improvement rate in 2023. The same early warning LFP gave before disrupting NMC. We will show you where this goes before 2030, live.
In 2015, every reasonable forecast favored NMC for passenger EVs. The improvement rate data pointed the other way. LFP now powers more than half the world's EV batteries, and the OEMs that waited for sales data to confirm the shift are still catching up.That same early warning signal is now firing for sodium-ion. Its improvement rate crossed LFP's in 2023 and has stayed ahead every year since. The signal is broad: cathodes, anodes, electrolytes, full-cell platforms, and manufacturing.
The incumbent is tougher this time, and the timing is genuinely uncertain. The direction is not.
In this live session, Jard van Ingen (CEO and Co-Founder, GetFocus) walks through the full analysis behind our research study "Sodium-Ion vs LFP: Will Sodium Disrupt LFP in EVs Before 2030?" and puts a forecast on the record.
What we will cover:
• The LFP precedent: how improvement rate data led the market by roughly a decade
• The 2023 crossover and what makes the sodium-ion signal different from hype
• Why this disruption is harder than LFP vs NMC, and where it lands first
• What OEMs and suppliers in LFP-addressable segments should do in the 2026 to 2028 window
This session is for R&D, technology strategy, and battery sourcing leaders making platform decisions that have to hold into the 2030s. Bring your questions. We will answer them live.
