Ora Good Cat: LFP or NMC Battery?

[LeMatthew]

Whether to choose LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) or NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) battery for the Ora Good Cat depends on your living environment. For northern regions, NMC batteries are preferable as they offer more stable performance during winter. For southern areas, LFP batteries are recommended for their higher safety. The differences between LFP and NMC batteries are as follows: Energy Density: LFP battery cells typically have an energy density of about 110Wh/kg, whereas NMC battery cells generally reach 200Wh/kg. This means that for the same weight, NMC batteries provide 1.7 times the energy density of LFP batteries, enabling longer range for new energy vehicles. Temperature Efficiency: While LFP batteries are more resistant to high temperatures, NMC batteries perform better in low temperatures, making them the primary choice for low-temperature lithium batteries. At -20°C, NMC batteries can release 70.14% of their capacity, compared to only 54.94% for LFP batteries.
