Abstract generation in progress

West China Securities pointed out that data centers, as the core infrastructure of the digital economy, have a continuously increasing power load and high requirements for power supply continuity, promoting diversified development of energy storage and distribution forms. Currently, lithium-ion batteries remain the mainstream technology for data center energy storage, with significant advantages in short-term power support and rapid response scenarios, and are expected to benefit from industry expansion. Coupled with the ongoing global demand for data center energy storage, overall energy storage demand is expected to grow rapidly. Additionally, sodium batteries offer cost and performance advantages. With the expected rise in lithium carbonate prices, sodium batteries’ cost-effectiveness becomes more prominent; their technology and processes are gradually maturing, showing clear performance advantages in energy storage, commercial vehicles, passenger cars, and other fields, and are expected to enter large-scale application stages.
