Finished carmakers have a greater interest in the LFP battery, which has an advantage of low cost and better stability despite a shorter driving range, SK On CEO Jee Dong-seob and SK Innovation CEO Kim Jun said during their interview with Reuters.
LFP technology is gaining traction despite low energy density because LFP batteries boast of better thermal stability. It is also cheaper to make LFP batteries because it requires iron, instead of expensive cobalt, a core material for high Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt batteries.
EV giant Tesla recently began sales of LPF battery-powered Model 3 in the U.S., and Volkswagen and Ford also announced they will use the battery.
