    R&D Pathways Towards High-Energy Liquid, Semi-Solid and Solid Li-Ion Batteries

    With our unique machine learning (ML)-supported innovation and patent analysis approach, we have made in-depth studies of emerging high energy positive & negative active materials, and how they can be combined with liquid, semi-solid or solid electrolytes to obtain improved performance / safety / cost profiles in EVs, consumer electronics, IoT, etc.

    This presentation will illustrate R&D pathways that are being pursued by key commercial players, identifying opportunities and risks of varying approaches.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • High energy positive and negative electrode active materials
    • Combination with liquid, semi-solid and solid electrolytes
    • Opportunities and risks of different material permutations
    • Key commercial players pursuing varying approaches

    The Future of LFP Batteries From a Patent Landscape Perspective

    LFP (lithium iron phosphate) has become a key battery technology in the market, competing with NCM. Being both cheaper than NCM batteries, while also offering superior safety characteristics, they have attracted great interest. China’s leadership in LFP has caused many battery players previously focused on NCM to enter the LFP market as well. While LFP batteries also have some disadvantages compared to NCM, such as lower energy density, poor charging performance at low temperatures, and recycling difficulties, many new technologies are being introduced to solve these problems. This talk will review the future of LFP batteries using patent analysis techniques to understand technological development in this area.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Why LFP batteries are attracting attention
    • Why Chinese players dominate the LFP battery market
    • Challenges presented by LFP batteries and potential solutions
    • Can Korean and US companies become leaders in LFP technology?
