EV's and Indian Manufacturing: Prof. Ashok Jhunjhunwaala | Visit to IIT Madras

Plug In India

As more and more of us put solar panels on our roofs, we can move away from our grid driven AC to battery driven DC lights and appliances. LFP, in contrast, currently stores about 140 Wh/kg – with a theoretical storage upper ceiling of 160 Wh/kg. LTO is faster to charge, but has the disadvantage of a lower energy density.
