Microvast has introduced two new long lasting, fast charging battery cells.
Microvast is not a major battery manufacturer, but it apparently will make the batteries that go into electric postal delivery trucks for the USPS. This week, the company, based in Houston, Texas, announced two new NMC battery cells — 48 Ah and 53.5 Ah NMC pouch cells that have been specifically designed to power commercial and special purpose vehicles.
Both new pouch cells are available in the same dimensions and can be integrated into Microvast’s new fourth generation battery packs, according toThe MpCO-48Ah has an energy density of 205 Wh/kg and can be charged to 80% in 16 minutes. Microvast says that cell has a service life of over 7,000 cycles at 25 degrees.
The HpCO-53.5Ah has an energy density of 235 Wh/kg. This cell is rated at over 5,000 cycles at 25 degrees, and the charging time is significantly higher at 48 minutes. It can only be charged at 1C, while 3C is possible with the MpCO-48Ah. In October, 2020, Microvast introduced the MpCO-17.5Ah battery cell, which has a service life of 8,000 cycles but a lower energy density of 186 Wh/kg.
“The new cells enable our customers to easily optimize vehicle design in terms of energy density and cycle life, delivering improved overall performance and reducing total cost of ownership while preserving fast charging capabilities,” says Yang Wu, president and CEO of Microvast. “We expect these next generation battery cells to become pivotal revenue drivers for our business going forward.
