Only about 3 percent of the total supply of phosphate minerals is currently usable for refinement to cathode battery materials. It is also beneficial to do PPA refining near the battery plant that will use the material to produce LFP cells.
They conclude that by 2050, demands for lithium, cobalt and nickel to supply the projected >200 million LEVs per year will increase by a factor of 15–20. However, their analysis for lithium-iron-phosphate batteries (LFP) fails to include phosphorus, listed by the Europen Commission as a “Critical Raw Material” with a high supply risk 2.
It is abundant, with global reserves of phosphate rock estimated to be sufficient for over 100 years, before its sudden popularity in LFP traction batteries for EVs. The increased use of LFP batteries in electric vehicles and energy storage will require significantly more purified phosphoric acid (PPA).
A recent report 23 from China’s National Big Data Alliance of New Energy Vehicles showed that 86% EV safety incidents reported in China from May to July 2019 were on EVs powered by ternary batteries and only 7% were on LFP batteries. Lithium iron phosphate cells have several distinctive advantages over NMC/NCA counterparts for mass-market EVs.
According to a recent McKinsey survey, consumers want midsize passenger EVs to have a driving range of about 465 kilometers (km) before needing to recharge. 2 For years, NMC batteries were the only technology that allowed EVs to meet this expectation, but LFP batteries are now catching up.
NEVs can reduce damages to the environment and guarantee social and economic development. They are the trend of the automotive industry. However, it is worth mentioning that the current development status of NEV batteries is not ideal.

Rechargeable batteries are critical power sources for mobile devices, such as electric vehicles, portable electronics, and energy storage devices [1], [2], [3], [4] nventional lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) based on graphite anodes and lithium metal oxide cathodes cannot satisfy the growing demand of high-energy conversion and storage.
The research of new electrode materials is vital, among which anode materials have a significant role in the improvement of the overall energy density of batteries. Phosphorus-based anode materials show tremendous potential in the exploration of anode materials due to their high theoretical capacity, natural abundance, and environmental ...
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been widely used today owing to portability, high energy storage, and reusability. However, commercial liquid electrolytes in LIBs possess intensive mobility and terrible flammability. Accordingly, leakage, combusting, and even exploding can frequently occur when LIBs work under abuse conditions. Herein, a novel flame-retardant …
By highlighting the latest research findings and technological innovations, this paper seeks to contribute to the continued advancement and widespread adoption of LFP batteries as sustainable and reliable energy storage solutions for various applications.
However, the real demand across the energy-sector, for example, including LFP batteries within heavy-duty vehicles and local network energy storage infrastructure, will be much greater.
LFP batteries will play a significant role in EVs and energy storage—if bottlenecks in phosphate refining can be solved. Lithium-ion batteries power various devices, from smartphones and laptops to electric vehicles (EVs) and battery energy storage systems.
New energy vehicles (NEVs) refer to automobiles that utilize unconventional fuels as their power sources and feature novel structures and technologies. These primarily include hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), battery electric vehicles (BEVs), and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). The development of NEVs is an increasingly prominent topic. Nations around the …
