Can LFP technology retain its battery market share?
Electric vehicle (EV) and energy storage systems (ESS) battery sectors use a variety of battery technologies and chemistries. These sectors have expanded rapidly over the past decade and OEMs have settled on a few lithium-ion chemistries which now make up the majority of installations. In this brief insight we take a look at the development of LFP technology during the expansion of the EV and ESS markets and outline our future expectations.

Lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) is poised to overtake lithium-manganese-cobalt-oxide (NMC) as the dominant stationary storage chemistry within the decade, growing from 10% of the market in 2015 to more than 30% in 2030.
