Q4 2023 Earnings Conference Call
The question is, who beats who to market first?
This is why Amprius is going to be hard to beat, given the pack size and charge rate, Amprius is a winner. Actually SSB’s are the winner here until nuclear batteries(storage) is developed in the next 50 years.
The question is, who beats who to market first?

That is awesome.
Glad to see CATL and BYD are focusing their research on more than one battery type. Which we know they are, but to have it produced and on the road even better. It will be interesting if they can get the purity of the Na to 100%. Which would significantly reduce the weight that plagues the battery. Carbon anode, separator to prevent corrosion, makes sense.

Bolivia chose to partner with CATL, which produces SODIUM batteries to replace lithium batteries.
#chile, #argentina, #bolivia, #oscarvargasvillazon, March 10, 2024.
Bolivia chose CATL as its partner to test EDL technology in the Salar de Uyuni under the premise that lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries have become the fundamental component of electric vehicles (EVs).
However, CATL is already producing batteries with sodium-ion (Na-ion) technology. A development that threatens the future of lithium and its producing countries such as Argentina, Chile and Bolivia.
For Bolivia, the forecasts for sodium batteries are, at the very least, worrying, from the consultancy TKN srl, of which Oscar Vargas Villazon is a partner, we believe that sodium will cut the peak of lithium demand, we will begin to see that sodium will replace lithium for certain applications.
This scenario further exposes the delay of the National Lithium Policy in Bolivia, which in 16 years has not managed to enter the lithium market and worldwide, it is already prioritizing the replacement of the white mineral.
Tech war between CATL and BYD over sodium-ion batteries.
Today, the SODIUM-ion battery sector is being mass-produced by two Chinese groups: CATL-Chery Group and BYD. The two already have electric vehicles powered by sodium-ion batteries on the market.
The batteries produced by CATL have a battery pack with a capacity of 25 kWh and an energy density of 120 Wh/kg, has a range of 252 kilometers and supports fast charging from 3C to 4C.
China is estimated to have 10 GWh of sodium-ion battery manufacturing capacity as of June 2023. The country is expected to reach 40 GWh of operational capacity by the first quarter of 2024, according to the IEA.
CATL's sodium battery has a hard carbon anode and a high-sodium Prussian white cathode. Prussian White (PW), which is the completely reduced and sodium form of Prussian Blue (PB). Compared to competing commercial batteries, Prussian blue electrodes outperform them in terms of internal resistance, sodium ion storage and transfer rate, and transfer frequency.
Batteries account for a large portion of the total cost of an electric vehicle and typically account for 30% to 40% of its value.
Lithium price volatility also prompted battery manufacturers to look for alternative technologies, including sodium-ion ones. Sodium carbonate has been trading at US$200/tonne for several years.
Although sodium-ion batteries are not expected to overtake lithium-ion batteries in the short to medium term, sodium batteries are going to survive side by side with lithium batteries (10 to 20% of the market), it will reduce dependence on a single material, this should accelerate the transition to green energy.

If you wondered what I am saying, our research is inline with the universities research on SSB’s.
“My team at Nankai University has developed a new 400 Wh/kg solid-state battery, which is 30 percent more energy-dense than the most advanced 300 Wh/kg lithium-ion battery on the market,”

With NowWhats post I am starting to follow better on, trends.
I will be classic investing until, I retire, then I will take my game to the next level.
Speaking of next level, Ampirus is looking really enticing.
No I have never done options. I thought about it for AMPRIUS. Although I do use RSI and bollinger bands.
“ION’s US - designed and manufactured SSB battery cells are the first to achieve this milestone with an anodeless design and no compression, representing a key accomplishment for broader adoption of SSBs, which have long been considered the safer, more powerful alternative to traditional Li-Ion batteries.”

True SSB’s are coming! Lithium miners, get your mining on.
Have you used this yet in your investment strategy?
The Trillion Dollar Equation
With Ampirus and Quantum so close. There are some exciting things being dreamed up in tech labs to accommodate.
But like I was saying with MULN.
Li demand is going to escalate fast here. 2026 peak and then dies down with over production again.
With all the SSB manufacturers coming into final R&D, the Lithium reserves don’t stand a chance.
“According to Mullen Automotive, its latest solid-state battery development and testing phase began in January when the EV automaker installed an energy-dense pack in one of its electric vans.
The initial tests measured the system compatibility between the pack of solid-state cells and the vehicle itself. Due to the higher energy density of the technology, Mullen shared it was able to increase the EV’s overall capacity from 42 kWh to 72 kWh using the same space in the platform.”

It’s been a long-held belief that energy-dense materials (e.g. NMC or LMFP) are essential for high performance EVs. Well, BYD have just shattered that belief.
BYD are releasing a LFP (yes LFP!) supercar, with a 135.5 kWh pack, offering a range of almost 500 miles, and the ability to charge from 30% to 80% in 10 minutes.
Manufacturers within the western supply chain often tout the necessity of LMFP for higher performance and lower cost, but as the graph below shows (thanks to Jeremy Lowen for this modelling), as lithium price falls, the cost advantage of LMFP is eaten away. Furthermore, its increased energy density comes at a cost of lower cycle life, due to manganese dissolution, reducing its advantage over the resilient LFP.
Exawatt has long believed the value of LFP at a system level has been underappreciated in the industry. Is it time for western OEMs to park more of their NMC or LMFP vehicles, with a shift to the tried and trusted LFP chemistry?

Li-Ion Conductors: A New Pathway to Sustainable Batteries
According to a study published in the journal Science, a solid that conducts lithium (Li) ions quickly has been found by researchers at the University of Liverpool. These Li-ion electrolytes are crucial parts of the rechargeable batteries that run a lot of modern devices, including electric vehicles.
The new material, which is composed of components that are naturally occurring and non-toxic, has a high enough Li-ion conductivity to replace the liquid electrolytes used in existing Li-ion battery technology, increasing energy capacity and safety.
The multidisciplinary research team from the university designed the material using a transformational scientific method. They synthesized the material in the lab, identified its structure (the arrangement of atoms in space), and showed it in a battery cell.

🔋🇺🇸🇨🇳 Battery costs are the Wealth of Nations.
For all the flaws and complexities we've pointed out in the US Inflation Reduction Act, one part is working as intended: the 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Tax Credit.
To produce battery cells in the US, you get up to $35/kWh against the cost of labour and processing, both of which are otherwise systemically more expensive in the US compared to China.
Note that the cost of materials is excluded - this is clever as it avoids effectively subsidising a mine or cathode plant outside the US, and only counts the value added in that step domestically.
This is having a profound effect on company operating profits - see Panasonic/LG/SK reports.
It also means that, even with pessimistic parameters in our cost model, it can enable cost-competitiveness with that of the average Chinese counterpart.
Reach out to Aaron Wade - who is at #NAATBatt today - if you want to understand how battery costs are influences and how the CRU Battery Cost Model can help you.

Today we are at #NAATBATT! An excellent and timely Bloomberg article on IRA tax credits was just published:
https://lnkd.in/eM-XuXAV
Here the CRU Battery Cost Model illustrates how the percentage of value of critical minerals in an NMC 811 battery changes over time versus the IRA's requirement for where the critical minerals are sourced.
Last year automakers were generally compliant as long as they sourced lithium from the US or Free-Trade-Agreement country. This is relatively easy considering the abundance of lithium from Chile and Australia.
But as the thresholds tighten, they need to look to compliant sourcing also for nickel, cobalt, or graphite - the processing of which which is dominated by China. If material passes through China, the entire tax credit falls apart.
We are in California the rest of the week. Reach out to us to talk about how our tools can help you to design your batteries and structure your supply chains to align with the US IRA!

“The battery cell now has greater energy density, uses fewer natural resources, charges faster, and costs less to manufacture. Cell formats can include cylindrical, pouch, or prismatic.”
“If only.”
I didn’t even consider, bitcoin/etfs when I was looking into it. It was a risk that didn’t sit well with me.
Even taking profits on stock I have been pushing to a safer bets, such as cd’s and stocks carrying dividend payouts.
No worries myte. Not talking my life savings by any means.

Leave it up to Elon to find the work around in order to get the Inflation Reduction Act/US DOE $2.8 Billion Energy Bill/American Battery Material Initiative(pick one). CATL, major R&D company with lots and lots of money, my guess is, that Elon needs to catch up to VW on the SSB they(VW) just tested. And to expedite and fall under US guidelines for the EV incentives this was the path. I would love to count how many lawyers are in that room picking that apart to not get burnt by the US DOE fire on the hoop.

“In the case of the sodium-oxygen cell, the proton phase catalyst transfers the newly formed sodium superoxide (NaO2) entities to solution where they nucleate into well-defined nanocrystals to grow the discharge product as micron-sized cubes.
The dimensions of the initially formed NaO2 are critical; theoretical calculations from a group at MIT has separately shown that NaO2 is energetically preferred over sodium peroxide, Na2O2 at the nanoscale.”
Definitely, investing.
