"Contemporary Amperex Technology Limited (CATL), the world's largest EV battery
manufacturer with 38% market share, keeps innovating and upgrading its product
line.

After announcing the world's first commercialized sodium-ion battery pack for
electric vehicles that can travel more than 300 miles on a single charge, it
has now launched the first 9 MWh energy storage system (ESS).

CATL's new Tener Stack solution takes advantage of the company's recent
breakthroughs in battery chemistry and packaging that allow a significant
increase in energy density hence capacity that can fit in a standard 20-foot
energy storage container.

About a year ago, CATL unveiled the world's first mass-produced energy storage
system with 6.25 MWh capacity, which it called Tener. At the time, it boasted a
20% size reduction and 30% energy density increase compared to previous
containerized 20-foot energy storage kits.

Thanks to the use of CATL's solid electrolyte interphase and other innovative
technology, oxidation of the highly active lithium in the system's LFP
batteries is kept in check, preventing thermal runaway and slowing capacity
degradation. This allowed CATL to dole out 5-year zero degradation and 20-year
overall warranties with the Tener system for the first time, too."
