While LFP cells use cheaper materials, and while they could be consistently charged fully without much degradation, they tend to be larger, heavier, and generally hold less energy than nickel-cobalt-manganese (NCM) cells. It has a clear and long-term advantage for the electric vehicle industry,” he said. Quotes courtesy of Reuters.
