Samsung SDI Presented Essence of Super-Gap Battery Technology at InterBattery 2024

March 11, 2024

London, 11 March 2024, (Oilandgaspress): –Samsung SDI announced its participation in InterBattery 2024 that kicks off on March 6 for a three-day run in Seoul. The company is poised to unveil a suite of ‘super-gap’ battery technologies encompassing fast charging and ultra-long life battery as well as its mass-production readiness roadmap for all solid-state battery, a beyond lithium-ion battery solution.

Enriching this year’s InterBattery Korea, Samsung SDI bids to solidify its technological leadership in all solid-state battery while presenting a myriad of product line-ups embodied with its ‘super-gap’ technology that will lead the battery market going forward.

Mass-production readiness roadmap for all solid-state battery with top energy density of 900Wh/L

To be made public for the first time ever is Samsung SDI’s roadmap for achieving mass-production of all solid-state battery (ASB) geared with the industry-highest energy density of 900Wh/L.

Dubbed as a dream battery by many, ASB is a next-generation battery solution with a filling of solid electrolyte that has significant effect in reducing a fire risk and increasing a driving range.

This roadmap illustrates Samsung SDI’s preparations from development to mass-production of ASB. Its energy density jumps up by 40% from the level posted by P5, Samsung SDI’s own prismatic battery product currently under production. The Samsung battery arm plans to implement the industry-top level energy density in its ASB product by leveraging the company’s proprietary solid electrolyte and anode-less technologies, the latter of which enables higher cathode capacity.

Ultra-fast charging from 8 to 80% in just 9 minutes; over 20-year long life battery; 20% lighter cell-to-pack platform

Samsung SDI is also slated to unveil its ultra-fast charging technology that reaches 80% charge from 8% in just 9 minutes, an unprecedented feat in the industry.

This feature is made possible by optimizing lithium-ion transfer path and enabling low resistance. The company aims to carry this technology development to a mass-production phase by 2026. This technology is expected to cut charging time significantly compared to P5.

Another technological prowess Samsung SDI will be presenting is its plan to develop and mass-produce a battery solution that lasts more than 20 years by 2029. Such longer battery life, more than double of battery life of products currently available in the market, will be achieved by strengthening durability of materials going into a battery, according to the company’s plan.
