LiFePO4 (lithium iron phosphate) battery packs are rechargeable energy storage systems using lithium-ion chemistry with a phosphate-based cathode. They offer high thermal stability, long cycle life (2,000–5,000 cycles), and enhanced safety compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries.
[pdf] Researchers from Dalhousie University used the Canadian Light Source (CLS) at the University of Saskatchewan to analyze a new type of lithium-ion battery material – called a single-crystal electrode – that’s been charging and discharging non-stop in a Halifax lab for more than six years.
