Morrow Batteries says it will start mass production at Europe’s first gigawatt-scale factory for prismatic LFP (lithium iron phosphate) batteries in 2024, located in Arendal, Norway.
While Morrow’s first factory will initially produce LFP batteries, the company continues to advance technology for LNMO (lithium nickel manganese oxide) batteries, it says, “driven by a highly qualified team with 25 nationalities based at Morrow’s research centre in Grimstad.”
Morrow (backed by shareholders ABB, Siemens, Å Energi, NOAH, Nysnø and PKA), says its LFP batteries offer “exceptional safety, longevity, and minimal environmental impact”, while LNMO, free of cobalt and lower in nickel and lithium, “leverages the efficiency of manganese to set new standards in sustainability and performance.”
