This document compares the characteristics of three types of battery technologies: lithium-ion batteries with nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) cathodes or lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathodes, and sodium-ion batteries. It lists the nominal voltage, specific energy, cycle life, common form factors, safety, and applications for each battery type. Sodium-ion batteries have a similar nominal voltage and specific energy as LFP lithium-ion batteries but a longer cycle life and better safety, making them suitable for energy storage system applications.
