How This New Battery is Changing the Game

China based Amberx Technology Company Limited , better known as CATL , has unveiled a battery that can go five years without power degradation or loss of capacity.

The tenor battery is a lithium iron phosphate battery, dropping the cobalt from the equation.

LFPS are a kind of lithium ion battery, like the common nickel, manganese, cobalt or NMC chemistry that we see in a lot of EVs.

Tenor battery system can be cycled daily for 15,000 cycles over five years with 0 degradation in power and capacity.

CATLSL series LFP batteries collectively have an energy density of 6.25 MW hours , which is a fair bit more than the 3.9 MW hours of Tesla 's mega packs.

The secret sauce is a combo of biomimetic solid electrolyte interface or SEI material and a self assembling electrolyte.

LG Energy Systems showcased several different sizes of ESS , including a grid scale giant capable of 3.14 MW hours of storage.

LG also highlighted their N Block E and LFP based ESS for residential use.

Samsung presented its own ESS Inter battery showcase at EES Europe , the aptly name Samsung Battery Box 1.5 .
