What is a EV battery?

EV batteries are batteries for electric vehicles. Instead of running out of battery after one-time use, you can use it as many times as you like by charging it. Lithium-ion batteries are currently the most commonly used EV batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are lighter and have a higher capacity than the lead-acid batteries that preceded them, and have the advantage of high energy density. Therefore, as a next-generation EV battery, the development of an all-solid-state battery that does not use an electrolyte solution is currently underway.

Application of EV battery

EV batteries are used as power sources for hybrid vehicles and EVs as automotive batteries. Recently, in addition to being used as a power source for EVs, it is also expected to be used as a virtual power plant while EV batteries are installed in EVs for a stable supply of power. Since it is difficult to store a large amount of electricity, sudden power outages due to power shortages are a big risk. When there is a power shortage, in addition to the power from the actual power plant, the concept of a virtual power plant that accommodates power from solar power generation, storage batteries, and EVs in companies and general households. spreads further.
