Global manufacturing capacity for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) is projected to reach 100 Gigawatt-hours (GWh) per year by 2027. This rapid scale-up is driven largely by Chinese industry leaders like CATL and BYD, who are moving from pilot stages to mass industrial production.

Global manufacturing capacity for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) is projected to reach 100 Gigawatt-hours (GWh) per year by 2027. This rapid scale-up is driven largely by Chinese industry leaders like CATL and BYD, who are moving from pilot stages to mass industrial production.
Key Capacity Projections
100 GWh Global Capacity by 2027:- Estimates suggest the industry will jump from less than 5 GWh in 2025 to over 100 GWh by 2027.
China’s Dominance: -
China currently accounts for approximately 75–80% of projected production capacity.
Long-term Growth:-
 By 2030, global production could exceed 400 GWh per year..
Major Industry Players
CATL (China): -
Recently announced a 40 GWh annual expansion for sodium-ion power batteries, aiming for a total site capacity of 149 GWh. They have already secured a massive 60 GWh supply deal for energy storage over three years.
BYD (China):-
 Currently ramping up a dedicated 30 GWh sodium-ion plant. BYD targets sodium-ion for 15–20% of its total battery demand by 2027.
Peak Energy (USA): -
Scaling up in the American market with plans to deliver over 4.7 GWh of grid storage between 2027 and 2030.
Tiamat (France):--
 Building a 5 GWh factory in Amiens to establish a European production hub. 
Target Market Segments in 2027 

The technology is expected to be distributed across several key sectors by 2027: 
Stationary Storage: -45–50% of deployments.
Micromobility: 25–30% for two-wheelers and scooters.
Budget EVs: 15–20% for compact passenger vehicles. PatSnap
Strategic Advantages
As noted in PatSnap's industry analysis, SIBs offer a hedge against lithium price volatility. While they have lower energy density than lithium-ion (approx. 175 Wh/kg vs 205+ Wh/kg), they are superior in low-temperature performance and utilize more abundant materials.  
 Sodium Ion Batteries Can Reach 100 Gigawatt Per Hour Per Year Scale in 2027.

State-wise carbon emissions in India show a concentration in western and southern states, with byd as major emitters, particularly from the manufacturing and energy sectors. The highest total CO2 emissions have been linked to states like Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal, though the specific ranking can vary depending on the data year and the specific pollutants included.
