Tesla's new generation of lithium batteries will unveil the veil ternary material as the key

The 2017 International Battery Conference will be held on March 20-23, US time. During the conference (22nd), Kurt Kelty, Tesla Battery Supply Chain and Business Development Chief, and Jeff Dahn, a ternary layered cell research partner, will share The technical details of the new "2170" lithium battery nickel-cobalt-aluminum (NCA) ternary material improvement, the mystery of a new generation of lithium batteries will be unveiled. It is reported that the "2170" lithium battery is used on the Tesla model 3 and may replace the traditional "18650".

Tesla CEO Musk has said that this will be the world's highest density and cheapest lithium-ion battery. With 2170 batteries, the energy required for the vehicle can be reduced by about 1/3 due to the same energy, and the energy density of the vehicle will be improved. In the future, it is expected that the cost of the power battery will be reduced by 90% through mass production.

The industry believes that the full replacement of 18650 batteries in 2170 batteries may set off a wave of battery development technology. With the large-scale production of Model3 before September this year, the relevant NCA ternary lithium battery industry chain company will usher in the outbreak of demand.
