Liacon introduces new 12V Group 31 LFP battery with a 4000+ cycle life

Green Car Congress

MAY 20, 2023

Germany-based Liacon, one of Europe’s largest battery manufacturers, has released a new, more versatile lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery that can replace all Group 31 lead-acid units. Delivery fleets, marine vessels, recreational vehicles, renewable energy storage, and construction equipment all use this standard.

In contrast, lead-acid batteries have a 99% recycling rate in the US. Other batteries are coming from battery energy storage systems. Grid stabilization, solar arrays, wind farms, and even home energy storage systems—some of those are coming offline and already going to their second set of batteries.

This includes the addition of a new stop/start lead-acid battery system; gas exchange system upgrade; and a new 30 kW lightweight diesel genset , e.g. for cabin air conditioning. It has a payback period of 3 years for the intercity duty cycle and could save up to 5 million liters of diesel per year.

CPI believes that people make an unreasonable comparison to consumer electronics (CE) pricing when discussing Li-ion for automotive traction (AT) applications. Because what we call end of life is maybe a 25% loss of power or energy but it is still 3x more than what you get from lead acid. they need help.

For reference, a typical lead acid battery can survive 500-800 cycles while 2,800 cycles is almost 8 years of use assuming one cycle a day. Battery chemistry is frequently a trade-off in power, the ability to accelerate, and energy storage or range. The USCAR/DOE long term goal is 5,000 cycles. Battery chemistry.

But in a world that aspires to leave behind all fuels (except hydrogen or maybe ammonia) and to electrify everything, the preferred measure of stored energy density is watt-hours per liter.
