Q. With reference to Sodium-ion batteries (SIB) consider the following statements:
1.SIBs have less global warming potential than lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. 
2.SIBs have lower operational safety than Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs).
3.SIBs can be discharged to zero volts to avoid accidents during transportation.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

[A] 1 and 2 only

[B] 2 and 3 only

[C] 1 and 3 only

[D] 1, 2 and 3

Answer: C
Notes:

Explanation –

Statement 1 and 3 are correct. SIBs have 45% less global warming potential than lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. SIBs can be discharged to zero volts to avoid accidents during transportation.

Statement 2 is incorrect. SIBs have higher operational safety than Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs).
