LIFEPO4 Battery VS Ternary Battery, who is a better choice?

Safety:

• LiFePO4 battery is with a better heat stability, uneasily occur thermal runaway. So LiFePO4 battery has good advantage in safety.
• Li-ion ternary battery is with a higher energy density than LiFePO4 battery, but easily occur thermal runaway. Ternary battery has a higher safety risk than LiFePO4.

Energy density:

• Li-ion ternary battery is with higher energy density, that means ternary battery can storage more energy than LiFePO4 battery in the same weight. So ternary battery can provide a longer mileage.

Life cycle:

• LiFePO4 is with a longer life cycle, reach 5000-6000 times, while li-ion ternary battery life cycle is about 2000-3000 times.

Cost:

• Cost of LiFePO4 is much lower than ternary battery. Cause ternary battery use expensive cobalt material.

Temperature adaptability:

• LiFePO4 batteries have poor low-temperature performance and are not suitable for use in low-temperature environments, while Li-ion ternary batteries have better low-temperature performance and can work normally in low-temperature environments

Please see a compared sheet below:

In summary, LiFePO4 battery and Li-ion ternary battery have their own advantage and disadvantage, we recommend customer to choose the battery based on their demands and application scenario. Based on SAFETY and CYCLE LIFE, LiFePO4 battery will be a better choice.

We can provide both type of battery as customer demand.
