2, July 13 news, according to media news, recently, the lithium iron manganese phosphate batteries of CATL , Sunwanda and Yiwei Lithium Energy have passed the battery pilot test in the first half of this year and are being shipped. Samples are given to car companies for testing. CATL plans to mass produce the product in the second half of this year.
It is understood that lithium iron phosphate battery has surpassed ternary batteries in terms of output and loading capacity due to its advantages of low cost and strong safety. However, the energy density of lithium iron phosphate battery is close to the "ceiling".
As an upgraded version of lithium iron phosphate , lithium iron manganese phosphate has a higher voltage platform, the energy density can be about 15% higher than it, and it retains the safety and low-cost characteristics of lithium iron phosphate batteries.
According to previous news, Tesla CEO Musk has also expressed interest in manganese-based cathode batteries. He has always believed that manganese has potential, and Tesla has been exploring the use of more manganese materials in batteries.
