General Motors is progressing rapidly with its plans to mass-produce advanced lithium-manganese-rich (LMR) EV batteries. This new chemistry promises significant performance improvements and lower costs, marking a strategic move for the automaker's electric future.
General Motors is advancing its battery technology by announcing its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility will mass-produce new lithium-manganese-rich (LMR) cells. This move signals a significant step towards boosting EV range and reducing costs for future GM electric vehicles. The LMR chemistry offers a path to higher energy density with less reliance on expensive nickel and cobalt.
A collaborative effort between LG Energy Solution and Seoul National University has significantly improved the longevity of lithium-manganese-rich (LMR) battery cells. By optimizing charging and discharging protocols, researchers maintained 92% capacity after 883 cycles, addressing a key hurdle for this promising, cost-effective battery chemistry.
