CATL and Intilion reportedly plan up to 3 GWh of sodium-ion battery storage across Germany, Austria and Switzerland over five years. Renewables Now reported the regional target on October 14, 2026; CnEVPost identified CATL’s TENER Sodium as the planned system in an October 28 report. The 3 GWh is a target for future deployment, not operating capacity.
The capacity is a combined target for the three-country region. A gigawatt-hour measures energy capacity, rather than the rate at which a system delivers power.
What CATL says about TENER Sodium
CATL describes TENER Sodium as a modular system with rated capacity above 30 MWh. Its stated storage-duration configurations are 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours. These are CATL’s product options; the reported cooperation sets a regional capacity target.
