Electric viking just did a video on it it was about CATL solid state batteries there’s no electrolyte to burn as such in those
Well that explains it ?
However, CATL does not have a solid state battery but, rather a semi solid battery, just as other manufacturers do.
As with all semi solid state batteries, they have both solid and liquid or gel electrolyte component combined, which improves the electrolytes contact area with the electrode.
CATL’s latest condensed battery, is a breakthrough in condensed battery technology employs a highly conductive electrolyte gel that significantly reduces weight and condensed matter to act as its elecrolyte and innovative ande materials.
In 2021 CATL first generation of sodium-ion battery with an energy density of 160 Wh/kg.
In 2022 CATL unveiled its 2ndd generation Cell to Pack Qilin battery (LFP/NMC) with the highest integration efficiency in the world, at 255wh/kg, which it has started mass production this March.
CATL, BYD along with other Chinese automakers and battery giants formed an alliance called the China All-Solid-State Battery Collaborative Innovation Platform. Their goal is to develp and commercialise all solid state batteries.
