75% mindre kobolt i Tesla batterier enn VW

[olavxxx]

"A report from German business newspaper Wirtschaftswoche has determined that Tesla's batteries for the Model 3 have over four times less cobalt compared to those used by Volkswagen today, highlighting the long road ahead for traditional auto as it starts its shift towards electric vehicles.

Frank Blome, Head of the Center of Excellence for Battery Cells at Volkswagen, noted to the publication that the batteries for the Volkswagen I.D.3 (a car formerly dubbed the ID Neo) contain 12-14% cobalt. In comparison, Tesla has succeeded in reducing the cobalt content of the Model 3's batteries to just 2.8% as of last year. Tesla has continued its battery research since then, hinting at even lower cobalt levels in the present iterations of its electric sedan."

1. Gen Nissan Leaf batteri var vel nesten koboltfritt. Det ryktes at Tesla nå har kjøpt rettighetene til katodeteknologien fra Nissan.

Noen kilde på det ryktet?

Kan ikke helt se hva Tesla skulle bruke rettighetene til. Kjemien var vel LMO, og jeg tror Tesla heller beveger seg i retning NA/NM, altså at de bare slutter å tilsette kobolt på NCA/NMC.

Det var er dårlig rykte, hva er kilden?
