Greater Bay Technology, a Chinese firm, claims that its new EV battery is able to function in any climate. According to Bloomberg, a battery known as the Phoenix cell employs superconductive substances and thermal control to elevate temperatures from below zero to a typical ambient temperature in under five minutes.
Since EV batteries were first launched, they have been plagued with high temperatures. Electric vehicle batteries become less effective as the temperature drops to under 32ºF (0ºC) during charging, creating challenges for vehicle owners who actually rely on the range provided by the vehicles.
To keep the temperature of batteries within an effective range, automakers have installed heating pumps; however, this is also an inefficient method of managing the battery. Greater Bay Technology, which was founded in 2020, wants to fundamentally alter how electric vehicle batteries function and believes it has solved a critical problem for electric vehicle manufacturers with the Phoenix cell.
Greater Bay Innovation was established in 2020 by Huang Xiangdong and Pei Feng, seasoned professionals in the field. The two had previously worked together at GAC Motor, China’s number three electric vehicle manufacturer in terms of popularity behind Tesla and BYD. At GAC, Huang, who was in charge of the research and development center from 2006, supervised the creation of the GS4 SUV, which is among the brand’s most well-known vehicles. Huang stepped down in 2016, but he returned in 2020 with battery technology that might make electric vehicles as simple to own and drive as conventional cars.
The Phoenix cell of the future can go a distance of 621 miles on just one charge. Huang claims that the EV battery can be reheated up to 77 °F (25 ºC) in only a few minutes from its lowest temperatures of -4 °F (-20 ºC), thanks to the usage of superconductive substances and thermal control technologies within the cell.
This Phoenix cell battery, in addition to fixing the lengthy charging times of electric vehicles, also solves other problems. The range of the Phoenix cell battery is unaffected by the weather, whether temps are hot or freezing. Huang is certain that his invention is going to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles on a large scale.
The GAC Aion electric vehicles as well as those from other automakers might both use the Phoenix cell battery next year at the earliest. The Greater Bay Technology, which has a $1 billion market cap, has grown into a unicorn firm in merely two years and is listed alongside battery industry heavyweights such as Chinese companies BYD and CATL.
With other companies such as Kandi Technologies Group Inc. (NASDAQ: KNDI) also looking to bring to market EV models with superior battery packs, the world is set to see rapid transformation in battery chemistries over the coming decades.
