ENERGY PLATFORM Sodium-ion / thermal control / charging intelligence.
Energy Platform / sodium-ion

Store energy.
Release possibility.

The battery is not a component hidden under the floor. It is the foundation for range, performance, autonomy, service and a new relationship with the energy network.

01 / Sodium-ion proposition

More available materials. More ways to scale.

Sodium-ion chemistry gives the automotive portfolio another tool: a path to lower material pressure, strong cycle potential, dependable thermal behaviour and cost-conscious electric mobility.

It is not a one-size-fits-all replacement. High-energy applications can use the chemistry where its strengths matter most, while pack design, cooling, control software and charging strategy determine the result on the road.

Why it matters

Sodium is broadly available and the chemistry can be well suited to vehicles, fleets and stationary systems where lifetime value, cold-weather behaviour, safety and cost matter as much as peak energy density.

What makes it useful

The real advantage comes from the complete platform: cell selection, pack architecture, thermal control, charge scheduling, serviceability and software that learns from the fleet.

02 / Battery intelligence

Chemistry is the start.
Control is the multiplier.

Bitcoin Ecosystem technology helps the energy platform coordinate battery signals, trusted software, charging demand and grid services without interfering with the local battery management system.

01

Cell-aware control

Temperature, state of charge, load and ageing signals help protect the pack while keeping useful energy available.

02

Fleet feedback

Aggregated performance signals improve calibration and reveal patterns that one vehicle cannot see alone.

03

Charging orchestration

Route, weather, energy availability and departure time shape a better charge plan.

04

Grid value

When enabled, vehicle batteries can support demand response and settle verified energy services.

03 / From sodium to motion

A full-stack energy company inside the car company.

The same energy platform can serve electric cars, hybrids, autonomous fleets and stationary charging sites, creating a stronger operating model across the group.

01 / CELL

Choose the chemistry.

Match sodium-ion and other cell formats to the vehicle role and duty cycle.

02 / PACK

Build for service.

Design modules, cooling and access around long life and practical repair.

03 / CONTROL

Protect useful energy.

Coordinate thermal, charge and drive decisions in the vehicle.

04 / NETWORK

Put the fleet to work.

Connect charging, grid services and fleet settlement when appropriate.
