LFP batteries could improve economics of electric shipping: study

Researchers from University of California, Berkeley, have concluded that battery prices of US$100 kW/h make the electrification of trade routes of less than 1,500 kilometres economical.

Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries are one of the chemistries to undergo electrochemical cycling performance testing at ANL's Battery Laboratory.
