Why NMC- Energy Density(Range)《Industry development plan of energy saving and new energy vehicles 》published by StateCouncil of China on Apr. 18, 2012.:By 2015, specific energy density of EV battery module should be over �神 11Ah万向 60Ah At present, ED of EV applying LFP cells is lower than 140Wh/kg. ED of BAK Gen.1 EV 18650-2.0Ah is over 160Wh/kg.盟固利100Ah

Why 18650 Safe- Low Unit Energy“Intrinsic” Safety:Device safety is based on energy amount contained. Eventhe basic unit has safety issue, it will not cause chain reaction which may result inhigher level damage issues.1865018.5*65mmEnergy Low Enough- FailSafeCapacity(Ah)Energy er 8*91mmEnergyper area(Wh/cm2)

Why 18650 Safe-Simulation of Thermal Runaway18650 2.0Ah 1S28P (56Ah) ModulePrismatic 50Ah CellIf single cell thermal runaway:If single cell thermal runaway:18650 cell has low single cell energy, good heatconducting of steel can, and heat diffusion path islong between cells in module (isolated spacedesigned). Obtain enough escape andemergency rescue time.Cell with too large energy has poor internal heatdiffusion, results in serious consequence in shorttime.Real operation result of a mis-welding module (some cells were anti-welded).Over charge test of 20Ah prismatic cellOnly mis-welding cell failed, nearby cell isLarge deformation may cause chain-reaction inmodule.Over charge
