EV Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) and Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) Battery Technologies Benchmark Report 2024-2030 Featuring Contemporary Amperex Technology and LG Chemical


Dublin, Aug. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Techno-economic Comparison of LFP and NMC Battery Technologies for Electric Vehicle Applications: Performance, Value Chain Analysis, and Growth Opportunities, 2024-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The technology landscape explores the major differences between Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) and Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) batteries, highlighting the various constituent materials used in their fabrication. It provides a comparative analysis of LFP and NMC batteries, covering performance parameters such as energy density, cost, and cycle life, and includes application mapping for both battery variants.

Rapid advancements in battery technology are imperative to develop the next generation of electric vehicles (EVs). Currently, the nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) and lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) variants of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries lead the market for EV battery packs, with LFP batteries witnessing increased penetration over the past few years. This is exacerbated by the use of critical materials, such as nickel and cobalt, used in NMC variants, as well as supply chain uncertainties and mining challenges associated with securing these metals, especially cobalt, which is concentrated in a few African countries and is an important human rights issue.

LFP and NMC batteries follow a distinct intercalation mechanism to trap lithium ions in their cathodes. NMC batteries store these ions within 2D interlayers, while LFP batteries store ions within 3D structures in the cathode material lattice. An important result of this is enhanced safety and a longer cycle life for LFP batteries. In addition, LFP batteries, by avoiding the use of rare materials during fabrication, come at a lower price point than the NMC variant, which is a critical parameter for their accelerated adoption in key global markets.

Additionally, the study includes a funding analysis that examines significant funding instances for stakeholders involved with LFP and NMC batteries. The patent landscape and growth opportunities section analyzes key growth areas for both battery types, identifying potential areas for development and innovation.
