DESTEN Launches Ultra-Fast Charging Lithium Iron-Phosphate Battery, the First LFP Cell Capable of Charging in 6 Minutes
DESTEN Inc. has announced its latest Ultra-Fast Charging, 6C LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) cell.
The new pouch cell can charge from 20% to 80% SOC in just 6 minutes. The cell’s LFP-based chemistry provides a notable chemical and temperature stability profile. This technology is expected to impact EVs by reducing charging times for electric vehicles and providing grids with short-duration storage at a low cost/kWh with enhanced safety.
DESTEN is currently collaborating with partners in North America, Europe and Asia to integrate these into new EV and BESS platforms. The first samples are available to the OEMs now.
Bader Al-Rezaihan, CEO and Chairman of DESTEN Inc., stated, “Our latest technological breakthrough has the potential to revolutionize transportation and energy storage applications. By making ultra-fast charging cost competitive via Iron-Phosphate material formats, DESTEN will resolve key adoption barriers for EV drivers and provide grids the power capacity they need to replace fast ramping fossil fuel generation sources with confidence.”
Thomas Gerhard Wilhelm Damitz, Chief Innovation Officer of DESTEN Inc., added, “LFP is becoming a leading chemistry for mass market applications. By developing a combination of fast charging, safety, longevity and cost efficiency, the future of our grids and mediums of transportation are secured.”
