EC 476-700-9
Also known as lithium iron(II) phosphate, LiFePO4, and LFP.
chemXplore tracks 12 projects involving lithium iron phosphate, of which 8 are active.
11 produce it and 1 uses it as feedstock.
Of the active ones, 6 new construction, 1 expansion and 1 conversion / repurposing.
1 active project carries no start-up date yet. The dates themselves, per project, are for subscribers.
Improved export margins and record lubricants profits drove quarter; battery unit loss narrowed despite lower sales, while ESS orders and LFP supply deals in North America strengthen outlook.
ESS met strengthened UL 9540A large-scale-fire criteria; no thermal runaway in adjacent container; SK On will push global ESS expansion and convert 3 GWh to LFP lines.
Upstream work finished at a 4,000 m Argentina site, raising commercial carbonate output to 48,000 t/year and enabling a 50,000 t/year lithium hydroxide system when linked to a 2027 downstream plant.
Long-term deal more than doubles prior volumes, expands supply from NCA to LFP, LMO and synthetic graphite, and secures non‑PFE materials for buyers.
Highlights binders, PVDF and thermal/safety materials for EV and stationary batteries; 15% PVDF capacity expansion completed in June 2026; visit Booth #2714 Oct 12–15 in Detroit.
KRW 160 billion of third-generation high-density LFP cathode to be delivered 2026–2028 for ESS cells at Seosan and Georgia plants.
Pilot bridges lab and industrial scale to produce iron phosphate for LFP battery precursors, enabling customer testing, qualification and potential commercial scale-up to strengthen Western pCAM supply chains.
New Krefeld laboratory tests iron oxide and iron phosphate directly in cells to speed assessment for LFP and sodium‑ion batteries and support Western value chains.
Five-year 9 GWh LFP pouch-cell supply runs 2027–2031; reciprocal pack purchases and an extra 9 GWh lift total partnership to 18 GWh to serve U.S. BESS demand.
Designates battery materials as its second core business; secures phosphorus and lithium upstream; opened Haiyang Green Power Industrial Park for LFP production in March 2025; broadened downstream battery-materials portfolio.
chemXplore tracks 5 plants producing lithium iron phosphate in 4 countries.
