Using first-principles calculations, we identify mechanisms of ionic diffusion and electronic transfer in newly developed cathode material, eldfellite Na$_x$Fe(SO$_4$)$_2$, reproducing the electrochemical properties in good agreement with experiment. The inserted sodium atom is suggested to diffuse along the two-dimensional pathway with preceding movement of the host sodium atom, and the activation energy is calculated to be reasonable for fast insertion.
