BYD company has introduced fast-charging batteries for electric vehicles

Sun Xuajun, Technical Director of BYD's battery production division, revealed important information about the prospects of power sources based on lithium-iron-phosphate technology. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The second-generation Blade Battery presented by the company charges at an unprecedented speed at high-power stations. Specifically, using devices with 1500 kilowatts of power, it is possible to increase the battery charge from 10 percent to 97 percent in just nine minutes.

This indicator is expected to usher in a new era in the electric vehicle industry. One of the main advantages of the new technology is its resistance to unfavorable weather conditions.

Even when the air temperature is 30 degrees below zero, the battery hardly loses its efficiency. In such extreme cold, the charging process takes only three minutes longer than at normal room temperature.

BYD is implementing a special strategy to popularize this technology. According to the plan, 20,000 fast-charging stations will be commissioned by the end of this year.

Among specialists, there were various views that ultra-high-power charging could lead to battery overheating and a reduction in service life. However, Sun Xuajun emphasized that such concerns are unfounded.

He explained that the symmetrical structure of the Blade Battery and its unique dual-sided cooling system allow for efficient heat management. This guarantees the safe and long-term operation of the device.

The company has conducted numerous tests to confirm the reliability of the batteries. This included more than a thousand full fast-charging cycles and the simulation of long-distance travel conditions.

During a recent live stream, bloggers demonstrated the disassembly of the battery block using various mechanical tools. This process practically proved not only the technical perfection of the device but also its extraordinary strength against mechanical impacts.
