Lithium-ion battery manufactuer Trontek introduces lithium phosphate to range of EV batteries

Trontek, a Delhi-based electric vehicle (EV) battery manufacturer, has introduced lithium phosphate to its range of EV batteries, becoming one of the first in the country to have its range of LFP and NMC batteries AIS-certified in both phases. 

This is in compliance with the EV battery standards set by MoRTH (Ministry of Road Transport and Highways) in September last year.

The phase-2 certification means that Trontek’s Li-ion batteries now meet stringent safety requirements for battery safety, reliability, and performance. These include thermal protection, audio-visual warning systems and IPX7, including smart BMS and Smart CAN enabled chargers.

Samrath Kochar, Founder & CEO of Trontek said that the government had been persistent in promoting ease of manufacturing and encouraging innovation in the battery manufacturing segment, be it in terms of providing subsidies or even amending the EV battery testing standards and implementing them.

NMC batteries offer up to 3.6KWh for E2W while LFP batteries offer 1.5 kWh to 3.64 kWh for E2W, and 5.35KWh to 10.7 for E3W. The new compliant NMC batteries have completed over 50,000 Km on-road testing validation for E2W and, and LFP batteries have completed 75000 Km for E2W-E3W correspondingly, a per the press release.
