Sustainable innovation

In our next generation battery cell, LNMO, we remove cobalt, lower the use of nickel and avoid toxic solvents.

‍

Morrow has built an in-house R&D team of around 60 scientists and working with partners across Europe. The key purpose of our R&D activities is to develop battery chemistries that use more sustainable, abundantly available and cost-effective battery materials in industrial-scale battery cell production.

‍

We are working to optimise the well-established LFP cell chemistries, so that the typical average cycle life can be doubled or more. The LNMO battery chemistry also ensures high voltage and an exceptionally high number of cycles. This creates long-lasting batteries that will reduce overall raw material consumption. The high voltage also reduces the number of battery cells in a series needed for a specific battery application, which in turn reduces the material needed when making battery modules and packs.

‍

Longer-life batteries can reduce the need for new batteries and thereby lower the overall consumption of raw materials, including minerals. This reduces strain on nature and the climate.
