Tesla's energy storage business model involves sourcing cells from suppliers and assembling them into complete energy storage systems, including the Megapack, a large-scale energy storage system for office buildings and factories, and the Powerwall for homes.
These technologies, in general, are classified into 3 categories: layered (LCO, NCA, and NMC), spinel (LMO, LNMO), and polyanion (LFP), with different costs, safety, lifespan, and performance . Of these three, the layered category has been the most favored technology due to the higher energy density and specific energy.
With regard to the projected segment in Fig. 6, the prospective cell costs of 47 US$.kWh −1 , and 60 US$.kWh −1 is anticipated by EV makers, e.g., Ford and Renault, in 2030. Moreover, Mauler et al. study indicates that the LiB production cost will stand in the vicinity of 90 US$.kWh −1 at the cell level in 2030.
Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) are pivotal in the shift towards electric mobility, having seen an 85 % reduction in production costs over the past decade. However, achieving even more significant cost reductions is vital to making battery electric vehicles (BEVs) widespread and competitive with internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs).
