CATL signs deal with Germany's Intilion to deploy 3 GWh of sodium-ion storage over 5 years

CATL (HKEX: 3750) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with German energy storage solutions provider Intilion to deploy 3 GWh of sodium-ion energy storage systems in Europe over the next 5 years.

The world's largest battery supplier announced the partnership on Wednesday, saying the companies would introduce its Tener Sodium energy storage systems in markets including Germany, Switzerland and Austria for grid-scale, commercial and industrial applications.

The agreement builds on CATL's push into European sodium-ion storage this year and extends its existing project partnership with Intilion to a new battery technology.

The companies have deployed more than 30 energy storage projects in Germany since 2022 and will promote the large-scale adoption of multiple battery technologies, including sodium-ion and lithium-ion, in Europe, CATL said.

Designed for Europe's harsh winter conditions, the Tener Sodium system offers a cycle life of more than 15,000 cycles and 25 years of stable operation, while maintaining high discharge power at -20°C (-4°F), according to CATL.

These features can support frequency regulation on European power grids and the long-term stability of energy storage systems, the company said.

CATL unveiled Tener Sodium on June 22, describing it as the world's first field-validated sodium-ion energy storage solution. The system has a modular design that allows storage duration to be configured to suit project requirements.

The system is dimensionally compatible with lithium-ion batteries. CATL previously said the design gives customers greater flexibility in choosing battery technologies and reduces their exposure to lithium price volatility.

V. to deploy 5 GWh of sodium-ion energy storage systems in Western European countries, including the Netherlands, starting in 2027.
