But they have a disadvantage: Their power density is lower than standard cells. That means an EV needs more LFP battery cells, and thus more weight, to match the range of a similar model powered by conventional batteries.— presenting a challenge for automakers aiming to build EVs that qualify for U.S. subsidies.
Mitra Chem is working on a variation of the LFP battery chemistry that adds manganese to the batteries' cathodes, in a bid to increase the battery cells' power density while retaining the LFP cost advantage. The company is using what it calls an"AI-powered platform" that, it says, greatly accelerates the process of trying new battery chemistries as it aims to hit just the right formula.
