Samsung SDI Unveils Next-Generation Battery Lineup at Daegu Mobility Expo
7. November 2024Samsung SDI recently presented its latest battery technologies, from the prismatic P6 to advanced all-solid-state batteries, at the Daegu International Future Auto & Mobility Expo. Showcased as part of its cutting-edge electric vehicle solutions, the all-solid-state battery delivers 900 watt-hours per liter, featuring a cathode-free design that enhances safety over traditional lithium-ion batteries. Sample testing, conducted with client companies last year, received favorable feedback. Also on display was Samsung’s new 46-series cylindrical battery, a 46mm diameter model with higher capacity than the previous 21700 version, intended for micro-mobility applications like e-scooters and e-bikes, and slated for mass production in early 2024. In many cases, batteries and production-related equipment require KC Safety certification in order to be approved for introduction and distribution in Korea.
Samsung SDI also introduced an improved LFP+ battery with enhanced energy density, designed for commercial vehicles to deliver over 5,000 charge cycles and fast-charge up to 80% in 20 minutes. Additionally, the company showcased a moduleless cell-to-pack (CTP) design for cost-effective, high-energy-density battery packs. Alongside these innovations, Samsung SDI exhibited the BMW iX and other e-mobility products that incorporate or plan to integrate its battery technologies. In line with its ESG goals, Samsung SDI highlighted initiatives for sustainability, including the RE100 action plan and waste battery recycling. CEO Choi Yoon-ho emphasized the company’s commitment to leading the global mobility sector with “super gap” technologies and promised further advancements in next-gen batteries to support future mobility demands.
