Under certain conditions, some battery chemistries are at risk of thermal runaway, leading to cell rupture or combustion. As thermal runaway is determined not only by cell chemistry but also cell size, cell design and charge, only the worst-case values are reflected here. [64]
a joint venture between Toyota and Panasonic. [31] Former JV partner was Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. till the 2010's. [30] Company will be renamed to Toyota Battery Co., Ltd. in October 2024. [31] At least in the 90's produced batteries for Prius and RAV4. [30] SAFT: 1918 Levallois-Perret, France Lithium-ion: Planned
Battery technology is non-transparent and lacks standards. Because battery development is the core part of EV, it is difficult for the manufacturer to label the exact chemistry of cathode, anode and electrolytes on the pack. In addition, the capacity and the design of the cells and packs changes on a yearly basis.
A lithium manganese iron phosphate (LMFP) battery is a lithium-iron phosphate battery (LFP) that includes manganese as a cathode component. As of 2023, multiple companies are readying LMFP batteries for commercial use. [1] Vendors claim that LMFP batteries can be competitive in cost with LFP, while achieving superior performance. [2]
In February 2023, Ford announced that it will be investing $3.5 billion to build a factory in Michigan that will produce low-cost batteries for some of its electric vehicles. The project will be fully owned by a Ford subsidiary, but will use technology licensed from Chinese battery company Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL). [54]
This marked the company's first foray into the EV market. [7] In 2011, Zeng and Huang separated ATL's EV battery business into a new company, Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Limited . [3] [8] ATL continued its growth trajectory and, in the first quarter of 2020, it held the largest revenue share (36.5%) in the smartphone battery market. [9]
