The safety feature of Lithium Titanate Batteries (LTO) could be a boon for the electric vehicle industry

In LTO, the risk of fire or explosion from an internal short-circuit due to external pressure is very low. Therefore, Lithium Titanate Batteries (LTO) are suitable for various applications requiring high safety and reliability, such as automobiles, industrial equipment, and stationary systems.

1 . Introduction

Lithium titanate (LTO) batteries are gaining traction as a sustainable solution for energy storage needs in applications such as power grid storage, electric vehicles, and high-capacity backup. A lithium-titanate battery is a modified lithium-ion battery that uses lithium-titanate nanocrystals, instead of carbon, on the surface of its anode. This unique adjustment leads to fast charging (higher charging current), high-cycle life, high power and high-durability of lithium titanate batteries, and the growing push for more sustainable energy solutions.

The lithium-titanate battery (LTO) is a rechargeable type with the advantage of being faster to charge than other lithium-ion batteries but the disadvantage of having a much lower energy density. Renewable energy sources rely on technologies such as lithium titanate batteries, which provide opportunities focusing on vehicles and mobile energy uses. Through longer lifetimes, higher efficiency, enhanced safety, low-temperature performance capability, and enormous potential for integration with wind power, lithium-titanate battery (LTO) is an ideal candidate for future energy storage solutions.

2 . Market Scenario

Our recent study showed that the Global Lithium Titanate Battery market had a total production value of 690 M USD back in 2015 and increased to 900 M USD in 2020. We study the development law of the market in the past few years and establish a data model to analyze and deduce future market changes. Finally, we predicted that the value of Lithium Titanate Battery markets could be 1100 M USD by 2025. The CAGR of Lithium Titanate batteries is 3.4% from 2020 to 2025.

China was the largest Value market with a market share of 59% in 2015 and 63% in 2020, an increase of 4%. in 2020, the Japan market share was 16%, ranking second. With the improvement of the economic level, the downstream demand continues to expand, and the technological level of these regions continues to improve, further promoting market development.

3 . Leading Industry Players

Lithium Titanate Battery manufacturers are mainly from Asia; the industry concentration rate is high. The top three companies are Yinlong Energy, Toshiba, and Microvast, with a revenue market share of 33%, 14%, and 11% in 2020.

1. Yinlong Energy China Ltd. was established in 2008 in Zhuhai, China. In January 2010, Yinlong China acquired ALTAIR NANO (US) - a leading innovator of LTO battery technologies with over 40 years of industry experience.
 
As innovators pushing the boundaries of the Green Energy Revolution in technology, Yinlong has long been committed to green development. Technology and material innovation have led to the emergence of Yinlong LTO (Lithium-titanate) material which has revolutionized the global new energy industry.
 
The Yinlong LTO technology drives toward Global New Energy is furthered by the LTO battery, LTO storage, and LTO transportation solutions, enabling economic development and environmental protection.
 
Scalable, low-cost solutions with quick charging LTO technology, extended battery lifespan of up to 30 years, wide temperature ranges of -40°C to +60°C, and cells with no SEI (solid electrolyte interphase) layer designed with safety-first help meet the evolving energy needs of industries in the Middle East.

2. Toshiba's SCiB™ rechargeable battery uses lithium titanium oxide (LTO) in its anode to achieve excellent characteristics, including safety, long life, low-temperature performance, rapid charging, high input/output power, and wide usable SOC range. SCiB™ has been widely used for vehicle, industrial and infrastructure applications, including automobiles, buses, railroad cars, elevators, and power plants.
 
Because of a rapid charging rate and wide usable SOC range, SCiB™ makes it possible to reduce charging time using a rapid-charging system, automate the charging process to increase system availability and convenience, and reduce the number of batteries required to improve space utilization. All these benefits provide new value for battery systems. (Source: Company Website)
 
3. Microvast was founded in 2006 in Houston, Texas, along with its Chinese subsidiary, Microvast Power Systems in Huzhou, China. Microvast’s LpTO Lithium-Titanate Battery Technology can accept up to 20C high-rate charging, translating into 5-10 minute fast-charging for your vehicle. Microvast’s battery system can be fully charged from 0-100% within 10-30 minutes, significantly faster than commonly used battery systems. The ultra-fast charging capabilities enhance electric vehicle mobility and accelerate electric vehicle adoption.
 
Microvast Fast Charging cells including HpTO, MpCO, HpCO, HnCO and MpFO chemistry. HpTO, MpCO, HpCO and MpFO cells can be recharged in 10-20 minutes with an extremely long cycle life. (Source: Company Website)
