Even now the electric car promotion is better, I believe that for most Consumers are still more preferred to choose traditional fuel models.
This throws some so-called fuel cars, the most important reason, or because the electric car is too reliable. The reason why it is not reliable, mainly in the battery.
On the one hand, it is a battery life: Although some models of calibration endurance can reach more than 600km or more, even 700km, but in actual use, it will often play some discounts, especially in the case of low temperature in winter, there are many electric powers. The battery life is even cut off; on the other hand, the safety problem: the self-ignition of electric vehicles has occurred, especially in the past two years, with the increase in electric vehicle sales, the frequency presents an upward trend, and it is awkward.
For these two problems, the vehicle enterprises are also trying to solve, such as BYD launched the blade battery, which is to increase the battery structure by changing the battery structure. But there is an ultimate battery solution: is a solid battery.
Solid State Battery Comparative Liquid Battery
The liquid battery itself exists. Whether it is a lithium iron phosphate battery or a three-dimensional lithium-ion battery, is a lithium-ion battery of liquid electrolyte. The highest energy density of theory is 350Wh / kg. It can actually do 300Wh / kg, basically it is already the limit, so At present, although some battery plants have developed a capacity of 300Wh / kg or more energy density, it is very difficult to further break through, and because of high energy density, battery safety issues are not resolved.
The principle of the solid state, although the liquid battery is the same, but the solid-state battery pack is easier, cost-effective It also reduces the weight and volume, and has higher safety. These are all the advantages of the liquid battery. For car companies, the solid state battery is actually a good electric vehicle power solution.
In this regard, the Evergregation Securities also said: Solid state battery will become a high level of lithium battery technology.
Ford test solid state battery in 2022, is it late?
Taking into account the prospect of the solid state, there are many competitors that try to provide a solid-state battery, but no one has manufactured commercial products so far, and mass production. The main reason is due to the high cost, technical restrictions, etc. Of course, this also illustrates one thing, who can take the lead in implementing the solid-state battery, who can account for an advantage in future competition.
Recently, the battery entrepreneurial company supported by Ford Automobile said they will start testing solid-state batteries for automobile production in early 2022. CEO official Dao Middot; Campbell said: quot; supplementation everything remained unchanged, and the original equipment manufacturer continued to operate according to their speed, we can support the car in 2026, but more likely to be 2027. QUOT;
Compared to the opponent.
Toyota has actually started research on solid-state batteries very early, and its announcement will showcase solid battery technology in 2021, and will also launch a prototype with solid battery. The specific production time is 2025 years.
The public is to develop solid-state batteries with the US battery startup Quantumscape, in addition to this, the public is also holding hands with domestic Ningde Times, announced Will build a plant in Europe to produce solid batteries, and planned to achieve mass production before 2025.
So, it can be seen that 2025 is a very critical time node. It seems that 2025 is also a lot of auto enterprises as a comprehensive electric time node, which may be due to the production of mass production.
Write in the final
, Ford Motors test solid batteries in 2022, it is not late, but the key issue is whether it can be mass production in 2025, Pushing a model with a solid state battery landing.
In this regard, Solid Power CEO official Duan Middot; Campbell once expressed quot; we are discussing with some OEMs to speed up the process. The variable has always existed, and this also determines whether the Ford car can achieve gorgeous turns in the electric field.
