The 2022 Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) ushered in a new era for the role of clean energy and storage in the transition to green energy. It also created an opportunity for non-lithium battery technologies manufactured in the U.S. to move more quickly toward commercialization – and compete with increasingly in-demand lithium-ion batteries for storage and electrification needs.
From long-duration storage and safety to long cycle life and slow degradation, non-lithium batteries offer many benefits over lithium ion, depending on the application. In this playbook, we dive into why the race is on to take advantage of the IRA. The playbook covers:
