Future Battery Technologies – Complementary Chemistries for Scalable Electrification
Wednesday, 24 June 2026
As electrification accelerates across transport, industry, and energy systems, no single battery chemistry will meet every requirement. Instead, a new generation of technologies is emerging to complement and extend the capabilities of lithium-ion, enabling more efficient, cost-effective, and application-specific solutions.
This session explores how LFP, LMFP, and sodium-ion technologies together form a complementary portfolio. LFP continues to lead mass-market electrification, particularly in electric vehicles, while LMFP offers the potential for enhanced energy density and performance within similar cost and safety frameworks. At the same time, sodium-ion is gaining traction as a lower-cost, resource-abundant solution for grid storage, industrial equipment, and low-speed mobility applications.
Rather than focusing on disruption, this discussion highlights how these chemistries can be strategically deployed across different use cases—reducing pressure on critical materials, improving supply chain resilience, and accelerating adoption across sectors.
