Ce dimanche, le Paris de Luis Enrique va disputer la finale de la Coupe du monde des Clubs face à Chelsea, pour asseoir un peu plus sa domination sur le football du moment. Mais au-delà du résultat, quelle place ce PSG-là va-t-il laisser dans l'histoire du jeu, lui qui donne fessée sur fessée et impressionne les observateurs et les adversaires depuis deux gros mois. C'est la première question que se poseront nos journalistes Maxime Dupuis et Martin Mosnier dans ce nouvel épisode du FC Stream Team.Dans le deuxième sujet, il est question de Ballon d'Or : Achraf Hakimi peut-il prétendre lui aussi à la récompense suprême pour un joueur de football ? Et ce, malgré la nette promotion de son coéquipier Ousmane Dembélé plus enclin à briguer le Ballon d'Or en raison de son poste, de ses stats impressionnantes sur la saison et des trophées remportés avec le PSG.L'occasion aussi de parler de ces joueurs qui ont vu le Ballon d'Or leur passer sous le nez alors qu'ils pouvaient légitimement y prétendre : Virgil van Dijk en fait partie. Et vous verrez qu'il n'est pas le seul.Nos journalistes évoqueront le nouveau média qui s'est créé pour redonner une chaîne à la Ligue 1 : la LFP avec Mediawan Sport à la production lancera Ligue 1+ à la mi-août. Un nouveau départ qui aspire à des jours meilleurs pour la L1.Enfin, comme vous en avez l'habitude, retrouvez le quiz de Quentin Guichard en fin d'émission ! Bonne écoute ! Hébergé par Acast.

ste episodio nos adentramos en uno de los componentes más decisivos del coche eléctrico: la batería. Explicamos de forma clara y amena qué hay dentro de una batería de coche eléctrico, cómo funciona una celda, qué papel juegan los ánodos, cátodos, electrolitos y módulos, y cómo todo ello se gestiona gracias al BMS, el sistema que vigila la salud de la batería. Hablamos de las distintas tecnologías de baterías (NMC, LFP, estado sólido...), del impacto que tienen los materiales en la autonomía, la seguridad y el precio del coche, y de los principales retos a los que se enfrenta la industria: desde la degradación y el reciclaje, hasta los nuevos sistemas de refrigeración directa con fluidos de alta estabilidad térmica. Además, desmontamos mitos sobre la seguridad y explicamos cómo mantener una batería en buen estado para alargar su vida útil. Un episodio imprescindible para quienes quieren entender mejor qué mueve realmente a un coche eléctrico… y por qué el futuro de la movilidad depende de seguir mejorando estos sistemas.

Lithium-manganese-rich (LMR) batteries could offer a rare combination in energy storage: high energy density at lower costs. They swap much of the expensive nickel for abundant, affordable manganese. But technical hurdles — like poor cycle life, voltage decay, and long formation time — kept them on the sidelines. Now GM says it's solved these challenges. In May, it announced plans to mass produce LMR batteries starting in 2028. In energy density, the new chemistry would land between the two major alternative chemistries in the U.S., NMC and LFP. So what does this new entrant mean for the U.S. battery market? In this episode, Shayle talks to Kurt Kelty, VP of battery, propulsion, and sustainability — and a 30-year battery industry veteran who led Tesla's battery development for over a decade. Shayle and Kurt cover topics like: What parts of the U.S. battery supply chain to on-shore or near-shore The tradeoffs between LFP, LMR, and high-nickel chemistries The roles that Kurt sees for all three in the market  Shifting production lines and supply chains from NMC to LMR Why LFP may still outcompete LMR in the stationary market Resources: General Motors: Why LMR batteries will change the outlook for the EV market AutomotiveDive: GM, LG Energy target commercializing manganese-rich batteries for EVs  WSJ: An Ex-Tesla Engineer Is Turning EVs Into Affordable Family Cars Catalyst: What happened at Northvolt?

La République démocratique du Congo, numéro 1 mondial de la production de cobalt, minerai qui entre dans la composition des batteries de voitures, a reconduit pour trois mois son interdiction d'exportation. Mais la filière a déjà les yeux rivés sur la suite, et spécule sur les modalités de la reprise, tant le cobalt congolais est incontournable. La RDC s'est donnée jusqu'au 21 septembre pour décider, mais pourrait communiquer avant ce délai. La question, c'est évidemment de savoir jusqu'à quand le pays peut tenir : le cobalt est une ressource minière capitale pour les finances de l'État congolais et le manque de redevances sur le cobalt va finir par se faire sentir. Les stocks nationaux se sont accumulés ces quatre derniers mois, et devraient encore grossir, mais personne ne sait si la RDC cherche à assécher totalement le marché avant d'ouvrir à nouveau les vannes ou si elle attend seulement que les cours aient atteint un niveau jugé satisfaisant. Un quota d'exportation demain ? Officiellement, toutes les portes restent ouvertes. La RDC pourrait donc encore prolonger l'interdiction d'exporter, mais ce n'est pas l'hypothèse privilégiée. Ce qui semble le plus probable pour les analystes, c'est une reprise des exportations, de manière progressive, faute de quoi le marché risquerait d'être inondé de cobalt, ce qui serait catastrophique pour les prix.  L'instauration d'un quota de production ne semble pas faisable, le cobalt étant produit au même rythme que le cuivre auquel il est associé dans les mines de RDC. Le quota d'exportation pourrait être une solution, mais il posera le défi de contrôler de manière stricte ce qui sort du pays, ce qui « peut s'avérer coûteux et inefficace », pointe Jack Bedder de Project Blue. De l'avis de Chris Welch, analyste du marché du cobalt pour Argus Media, la seule solution durable, c'est d'arriver à un marché équilibré, avec une offre stable, et une demande forte. Pour l'instant, aucun de ces critères n'est rempli. Des industriels découragés ? L'impossibilité d'importer du cobalt congolais et la remontée des prix pourraient laisser penser que les industriels cherchent à se détourner du cobalt. Mais à court terme, le contexte actuel ne devrait pas peser sur la demande. Le cobalt représente en effet moins de 5% du coût d'une batterie classique, donc une hausse du prix n'aura pas d'impact significatif sur les coûts de production, résume Thomas Matthews, analyste en matériaux pour batteries, chez CRU Group. Les alternatives de batteries sans cobalt ont par ailleurs commencé à se développer avant même que la RDC n'interdise l'exportation de son minerai. L'exemple, c'est la technologie LFP (phosphate fer lithium) largement développée dans le secteur de l'automobile électrique en Chine.  L'autre facteur qui ne plaide pas pour un changement radical, c'est que l'essentiel de la production de cobalt repose sur des contrats à long terme, explique Thomas Matthews. Sans compter, ajoute l'expert de CRU Group, que certains fabricants de batteries comme CATL ont des intérêts dans des mines de cobalt : le premier fabricant mondial de batteries, détient des parts dans CMOC, le plus grand minier du secteur, ainsi qu'une participation directe dans KFM, la plus grande mine de cobalt au monde, située en RDC.

First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a strategic milestone for the company's vision of becoming a leading North American supplier of lithium iron phosphate cathode active materials. The company's recent white paper submission to the United States Department of Defense's Defense Industrial Base Consortium has received a "Met" rating—a significant development that affirms both the technical and economic feasibility of the proposal. While a "Met" rating does not signify immediate selection for funding or contract award, it establishes the white paper as eligible for consideration over the next 36 months, contingent upon a specific DoD need and the availability of funding. This designation effectively places First Phosphate on the U.S. Department of Defense's radar for potential future investment through the Defense Production Act (DPA) Title III funding mechanism. Passalacqua emphasized that this rating validates First Phosphate's proposed project as a technically sound and economically viable solution for building a domestic supply chain of LFP cathode materials. If awarded DPA funding, First Phosphate could become the first company in North America to develop a vertically integrated phosphate production facility dedicated specifically to LFP CAM, helping meet growing demand from both civilian and defense sectors. The white paper evaluation confirmed that the company's proposed schedule, budget, and overall plan are considered realistic and achievable, provided the necessary financial support is secured. Passalacqua noted that DPA Title III funds represent a timely and efficient mechanism for advancing this critical supply chain infrastructure. Importantly, the DoD's assessment reinforces the strategic importance of phosphate in the production of LFP batteries, which are increasingly in demand due to their safety, cost-effectiveness, and long lifecycle. As global battery markets continue to expand, particularly for electric vehicles and energy storage, reducing reliance on China's dominance in the LFP supply chain has become a national security priority for the United States. #proactiveinvestors #firstphosphatecorp #cse #phos #otcqb #frspf #phosphate #CriticalMinerals #BatteryMaterials #LFPCathode #FirstPhosphate #CanadaMining #GreenEnergy #SupplyChain #QuebecMining #EVBatteries #dod

First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to highlight two major developments as the company advances its Quebec-based Bégin-Lamarche Project. Belgian Ambassador to Canada, Patrick Van Gheel, recently visited the company's prospecting sites, describing the Bégin-Lamarche Project as well-developed and a potential model for cooperation between the European Union and Canada—particularly between Belgium and Canada. Belgium has expressed interest in seeing the project succeed, especially as First Phosphate has partnered with Belgian company Prayon for phosphoric acid production in Saguenay. This acid is a key component in the battery industry. Passalacqua also announced the successful closing of the second and final tranche of a non-brokered private placement, raising a total of C$3.52 million. This brings the company's total capital raised since June 2022 to approximately C$23.8 million across seven such placements, all led by management. The new funds will support continued exploration and development of First Phosphate's Quebec phosphate assets, as well as general corporate purposes. The company is focused on building a vertically integrated North American lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery ecosystem, and this financing arrives at a critical juncture in that strategy. With growing international support and strengthened financial resources, First Phosphate is well-positioned to play a central role in North America's critical minerals and battery supply chain. #proactiveinvestors #firstphosphatecorp #cse #phos #otcqb #frspf #phosphate #CriticalMinerals #BatteryMaterials #LFPCathode #FirstPhosphate #CanadaMining #GreenEnergy #SupplyChain #QuebecMining #EVBatteries

Batérie nepatria do koša – a Marta Tomišová to berie doslova. V novej epizóde podcastu NA PLNÝ PRÚD si riaditeľ SEVA Patrik Križanský pozval k mikrofónu odborníčku na recyklačné technológie a jednu zo zakladateliek projektu ShredCo, ktorý má ambíciu spracovať na Slovensku až 20 000 ton lítiovo-iónových batérií ročne. Ako sa recyklujú batérie? Čo je to „black mass“ a kde v procese recyklácie vzniká? Prečo Európa čelí tlaku na surovinovú sebestačnosť, ako môže pomôcť recyklácia batérií a akú úlohu v tom môže zohrať Slovensko? V čom je mechanické spracovanie použitých alebo znehodnotených batérií ekologické a prečo si ShredCo vybral ako lokalitu pre svoj závod práve Šurany? Rozoberáme aj dopady európskej legislatívy, povinnosť recyklovať a opäť použiť vzácne kovy, ako aj výzvy spojené s rôznou chémiou batérií (NMC vs. LFP). Marta Tomišová vysvetľuje, prečo nestačí len vybudovať linku, ale kľúčové je mať aj odborníkov, výskum a prepojenie na školy. Téma, o ktorej sa ešte len začne hovoriť – recyklácia batérií ako potenciálny dôležitý prvok slovenského priemyslu.

Host Rachel Gilbert spoke with LFP city hall reporter Jack Moulton about the budget pressure facing London city council — and the service cuts that may loom for the community as a result.

C'est une petite révolution qui s'opère discrètement, mais sûrement, sous le capot des voitures électriques. En 2024, le prix des batteries a chuté de 20 % en moyenne à l'échelle mondiale — du jamais vu depuis 2017. Un recul spectaculaire qui s'explique par la baisse des matières premières, une production accrue et une concurrence technologique de plus en plus féroce. Et sans surprise, c'est en Chine que la baisse est la plus marquée : -30 % contre deux fois moins aux États-Unis et en Europe.Il faut dire que l'Empire du Milieu n'a pas de rival en la matière : 4 batteries sur 5 y sont désormais fabriquées. Grâce à des volumes gigantesques, une main-d'œuvre qualifiée et une logistique ultra-optimisée, les industriels chinois cassent les prix tout en continuant d'innover. Les batteries LFP, autrefois perçues comme bon marché mais peu performantes, sont aujourd'hui au cœur de la moitié des modèles vendus dans le monde. Cette efficacité redessine aussi le marché automobile global. En Amérique latine, en Asie du Sud-Est ou en Afrique du Nord, les voitures électriques made in China raflent la mise : jusqu'à 85 % des ventes en Thaïlande ou au Mexique. Résultat : les prix fondent. En Thaïlande, les voitures électriques se vendent désormais au prix des thermiques. Au Brésil, l'écart a été divisé par quatre en un an.Mais ce succès n'est pas qu'une affaire de tarifs. Les constructeurs chinois jouent une carte stratégique : produire localement pour contourner les taxes. BYD, Geely ou GAC investissent massivement au Brésil, en Indonésie ou en Malaisie, adaptant leurs modèles aux besoins locaux, des matériaux aux moteurs. Face à cette avancée éclair, l'Europe marque le pas. Les États-Unis résistent à coups de crédits d'impôt, suspendus au bon vouloir politique. Pendant ce temps, la Chine vend où la demande explose… et produit ce que d'autres ne font encore qu'importer. Selon l'Agence internationale de l'énergie, un quart des voitures neuves vendues dans le monde seront électriques en 2025. Et dans de nombreuses régions, ce sont les modèles chinois qui électrisent la route. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Esto es un extracto de la Tertulia de AutoFM que se emite cada jueves en Onda Cero Analizamos un buzón del oyente muy interesante: Mi nombre es Gabriel. Trabajo como ingeniero electrónico en el área de e-powertrain en una conocida empresa del sector de la automoción situada en Tarragona. Lo primero que me gustaría transmitiros es mi más sincera enhorabuena por el programa: os escucho todas las semanas en diferido, en formato podcast, mientras conduzco. Os escribo en referencia a la entrevista que realizasteis con un ingeniero de CESVIMAP. Hacía tiempo que quería escribiros, y esta es la excusa perfecta para compartir algo con vosotros. Es cierto que los incendios en baterías de iones de litio son bastante más difíciles de extinguir, debido a los productos inflamables que contienen y al hecho de que, durante la combustión, generan su propio oxígeno, lo que alimenta el fuego. Sin embargo, sí es posible extinguirlos por completo. Os dejo un vídeo en este mismo correo para que podáis ver la efectividad de un producto desarrollado hace unos años. ¿Cuál es el verdadero problema, especialmente en nuestro querido país? El de siempre: que la administración pública esté dispuesta a rascarse el bolsillo para salvar vidas. Por otra parte, me gustaría añadir que las baterías de los vehículos eléctricos son cada vez más seguras. La industria está virando hacia el uso de baterías de litio ferrofosfato (LFP), mucho más estables químicamente y más seguras en caso de impacto, lo cual reducirá aún más la ya baja tasa de incendios. F-500 apagando un incendio de batería de VE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81j7NYB50LU La alarma social en torno a los incendios de coches eléctricos recuerda al viejo mito del Ford Pinto: muchos creen que cualquier batería de iones-litio puede estallar en cualquier esquina. Sin embargo, los incendios en estos vehículos son estadísticamente poco frecuentes y, cuando ocurren, su extinción exige técnicas especiales porque el electrolito inflamable y la fuga térmica generan su propio oxígeno y alimentan la llama. Aun así, existen tecnologías capaces de sofocar un fuego de batería por completo. Un vídeo grabado en Corea muestra un prototipo que, tras provocar deliberadamente un thermal runaway (reacción en cadena de celdas que prenden una tras otra), logra extinguir las llamas en apenas ocho minutos gracias a un agente encapsulante que actúa a escala molecular, suprime vapores inflamables, enfría con rapidez y aisla el oxígeno. El sistema coreano introduce una manguera bajo el coche e inyecta el producto casi de inmediato; la coordinación de los bomberos y la química aceleran el proceso. Ese F-500 no es un caso aislado: en España se ha desarrollado un compuesto análogo llamado Ecofighting, fabricado con ingredientes naturales y probado en el circuito de Castellolí. Aunque la documentación pública es escasa, las demostraciones han dejado patente su eficacia y su potencial para incorporarse a los equipos de extinción europeos, reduciendo el riesgo que asumen los bomberos al enfrentarse a vehículos 100 % eléctricos o híbridos enchufables. La dificultad real no reside tanto en la batería principal como en la infraestructura que la rodea. Los garajes españoles —regidos todavía por la normativa de 1992— carecen de ventilación forzada suficiente, sprinklers sobre cada plaza y sistemas de detección temprana. Son espacios angostos concebidos para utilitarios de hace treinta años, hoy ocupados por turismos de cinco metros y dos toneladas. Un fuego, sea en un depósito de gasolina o en un paquete de baterías, se vuelve casi inabordable si han pasado más de 60 segundos sin intervención: la visibilidad es nula, el calor altísimo y la propagación a los vehículos contiguos casi inevitable. Paradójicamente, la inmensa mayoría de los incendios en coches estacionados —térmicos o eléctricos— nace en la instalación de 12 V: bornes flojos, cableados envejecidos o cargadores embarcados que trabajan el 93 % de la vida del vehículo porque éste pasa las horas conectado. El problema se agrava a medida que Wallboxes y cargadores acumulan años de servicio; nadie garantiza que un dispositivo enchufado de forma permanente funcione sin fallar durante veinticinco años. Cuando un chispazo en esa red auxiliar prende los insonorizantes, el fuego avanza hasta el vano principal y, si alcanza la batería de tracción, la situación degenera. Algunos aparcamientos de nueva construcción —hubs subterráneos de recarga— ya integran barreras cortafuegos entre plazas y rociadores automáticos que inundan la zona en los primeros instantes; allí es “literalmente imposible” que un incidente se vuelva catastrófico. Pero son contadas excepciones: la ausencia de regulación específica para garajes convierte cada sótano en una lotería. Aun así, la industria no se queda quieta. Muchos fabricantes han diseñado puertos de inundación accesibles a bomberos: basta acoplar la manguera para que el chorro vaya directo al módulo y lo anegue. Otros migran rápidamente a baterías de litio-ferrofosfato (LFP), químicamente más estables, con menor densidad energética pero escasísima propensión al incendio. Mientras la tecnología avanza, la Administración sigue sin dotar a los cuerpos de extinción de agentes encapsulantes suficientes ni de la formación asociada, alegando presupuesto. La paradoja es evidente: salvar un parking entero y, sobre todo, vidas humanas, cuesta menos que asumir los daños de un gran incendio. La solución lógica —aspersores, detección temprana, compartimentación y productos como F-500 o Ecofighting— debería instalarse en cada edificio nuevo y adaptarse a los antiguos. Aun con estas carencias, los vehículos actuales ya incorporan cortafuegos electrónicos. El Battery Management System desconecta la batería al detectar anomalías, y antes de que el fuego sea visible suele haber humo, olor y pequeños destellos, una cortesía que brinda minutos para evacuar a los ocupantes. En caso de accidente grave, el protocolo es claro: extraer a las personas cuanto antes, porque un impacto que perfora una batería es tan violento que la prioridad es médica, no mecánica. El parque eléctrico crecerá y envejecerá, lo que hace urgente revisar estándares de seguridad pasiva en garajes, endurecer la homologación de cargadores y planificar revisiones periódicas de Wallboxes. Mientras tanto, conocer la química del fuego, emplear enemigos adecuados —encapsulantes en lugar de miles de litros de agua— y modernizar nuestras infraestructuras son pasos imprescindibles para reducir el miedo, fundamentado o no, que rodea al coche eléctrico. En definitiva, los incendios no distinguen entre gasolina y kilovatios; distinguen entre prevención y dejadez. La administración debe trascender la retórica y equipar a los bomberos con la tecnología disponible, la industria ha de seguir refinando diseños y química de baterías, y la ciudadanía necesita información rigurosa para reemplazar el alarmismo por prudencia. Sólo así el vehículo eléctrico consolidará su seguridad intrínseca, y la pirotecnia mediática dará paso a una realidad mucho más serena.

Le marché du cobalt est toujours secoué par la décision de la République démocratique du Congo, prise fin février, de ne plus exporter son minerai pendant quatre mois. Le pays produisant les deux tiers du cobalt mondial, l'annonce a donc fait l'effet d'un séisme dans le secteur. La filière est maintenant dans l'attente de ce que décidera la RDC d'ici à la fin du mois de juin. La décision de Kinshasa a permis de faire remonter les prix, c'était son but. Mais elle a aussi asséché le marché, dont les stocks de métal disponibles à l'extérieur du pays n'étaient que de quatre mois de consommation, début janvier 2025, selon l'Institut du Cobalt, qui regroupe les industriels de la filière. Les usines de raffinage, qui souffraient des prix bas, manquent maintenant d'approvisionnement en matière première. Le marché a été si bousculé, que l'Institut du cobalt, détaille, dans un rapport publié fin mai, quatre scénarios, en fonction de ce que Kinshasa pourrait décider.Quatre scénarios pour les marchésLes volumes qui sortiront de République démocratique du Congo (RDC), dans les prochains mois, seront déterminants pour savoir si le marché restera excédentaire. Selon les hypothèses, le trop-plein de cobalt pourrait durer jusqu'en 2030 au moins, ou au contraire laisser place à un déficit dès 2027. Qui dit déficit, dit, en général, remontée des cours. Le positionnement de la RDC aura aussi un impact sur la consommation : les difficultés d'approvisionnement sur le long terme pourraient « détruire la demande », comme on dit dans le jargon, et conforter les technologies qui se passent de cobalt comme celle des batteries LFP (lithium fer phosphate).Une demande record, en hausseSelon les derniers chiffres publiés par l'Institut du Cobalt, la demande n'a jamais été si forte qu'en 2024, avec une consommation de plus de 200 000 tonnes qui pourrait doubler d'ici à la fin de la décennie, selon les prévisions de Benchmark.Le secteur le plus gourmand est celui de l'automobile : à l'horizon 2030, près de 60% du cobalt pourrait être absorbé par la fabrication de batteries. Les prévisions restent difficiles et sont « plus pessimistes qu'auparavant », selon l'Institut du Cobalt, car elles sont mises à mal par la situation économique mondiale et par la politique de l'administration Trump moins favorable à la généralisation des véhicules électriques. Parmi les pays producteurs qui profiteront de demande, il y a la RDC au premier chef, mais aussi l'Indonésie dont la part de marché ne cesse d'augmenter.

Per Bloomberg, in 2024 lithium-ion battery pack prices fell 20% to $115 per kilowatt-hour. It is the biggest price cut since 2017. At these prices, it is cheaper to buy Chinese even with tariffs of 25%, 35% and perhaps 120%. Central to this trend are the price and technology developments going on in a specific type of battery: Lithium Ion Iron Phosphate or LFP. LFP batteries were once seen as cheap and low-end, suffering fundamental chemistry weaknesses. Leave it to China to engineer their way around such limits. In this video, one of the most revolutionary cost curves in energy history. China and the LFP.

John Passalacqua, CEO of First Phosphate (OTCQB: FRSPF | CSE: PHOS) points out that very few investors are currently paying attention to the LFP battery space and the critical importance of high purity phosphate, an area currently dominated by China. As the US-China trade war escalates and China curbs exports, it is more important that ever for the LFP battery chain to move Westward, and First Phosphate is leading the way in creating a fully-integrated system to capitalize on a supply squeeze that could send high purity phosphate prices soaring.First Phosphate Website: https://firstphosphate.comFollow First Phosphate on X: https://x.com/FirstPhosphateFollow John Passalacqua on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-passalacqua-964092257Disclaimer: Commodity Culture was compensated by First Phosphate for producing this interview.

In this episode, we chat with John Passalacqua, CEO and Director of First Phosphate, who are a mineral development company fully dedicated to extracting and purifying phosphate for the production of cathode active material for the Lithium Iron Phosphate (“LFP”) battery industry. First Phosphate is committed to producing at high purity level, in a responsible manner, and with low anticipated carbon footprint. John is an international business strategist with over 35 years of extensive technology and capital markets experience and was recognised as one of the top international business strategists during the early internet era. He has placed strong emphasis on strategic partnerships and cost-efficient development as core elements of the company’s growth strategy. He advocates for maintaining low capital and operational expenditures while constructing commercially viable facilities to support long-term expansion. In addition to his corporate leadership, John actively engages in discussions on global trade policy and its impact on the LFP battery sector advantages in this rapidly evolving industry and John’s on the podcast to give us the history and vision of First Phosphate, their mining practices and community engagement initiatives, technology they are using, the phosphate market and more. KEY TAKEAWAYS First Phosphate is strategically located in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec, which is one of the few places in North America with high purity igneous phosphate essential for producing purified phosphoric acid used in lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. The company focuses on high purity phosphate, which is crucial for the production of LFP batteries. Unlike the majority of the world's phosphate used in agriculture, which is of lower purity, First Phosphate's product can directly produce the purified phosphoric acid needed for battery manufacturing. Phosphate-based LFP batteries offer significant environmental benefits compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries. The process generates recyclable gypsum, and the batteries themselves are less toxic and easier to recycle, contributing to decarbonisation efforts. First Phosphate aims to create a robust North American phosphate supply chain by integrating mining operations with downstream processing, ensuring that the entire production process from phosphate extraction to battery material is localised and efficient. BEST MOMENTS "We're located in a very, very rare portion of Quebec, the only real place in North America with hard rock phosphate." "To make purified phosphoric acid for batteries, you need high purity phosphate, which is not available from the 95% of the world's phosphate used in agriculture." "The hard rock phosphate is actually very, very clean. It's amongst the purest in the world." "You have to perfect your process in one country and then you might need to establish operations in many different countries to get around trade barriers."

Interview with Dan Blondal, CEO at Nano One Materials Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/nano-one-materials-tsxnano-taking-advantage-of-disruption-to-chinese-battery-supply-chain-6524Recording date: 5th March 2025Nano One Materials, led by CEO Dan Blondal, is positioning itself as North America's leading alternative to Chinese lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery cathode materials. The company has strategically transformed its financial structure by selling $22 million in real estate assets while retaining crucial operational capabilities, converting from property owner to tenant to strengthen its balance sheet without shareholder dilution.With approximately $60 million in non-dilutive funding secured through government grants, strategic partnerships, and asset sales, Nano One has created a strong financial foundation to execute its plans despite challenging market conditions. This funding approach has effectively turned their initial $10 million investment in the Johnson Matthey facility in Quebec into a $60 million war chest.The company's competitive advantage lies in its proprietary "one-pot" technology, which combines multiple cathode production steps into a single process. Unlike traditional Chinese manufacturing methods that generate substantial wastewater, Nano One's approach produces zero wastewater discharge while reducing capital costs and operating expenses. This technology can utilize North American iron sources rather than relying on Chinese supply chains.Nano One's Quebec facility serves dual roles as both a production platform and demonstration site for potential licensing partners, with an estimated capacity of 1,600 tons annually. The company is initially targeting defense and aerospace customers who require non-Chinese supply chains, establishing credibility before expanding to automotive and energy storage markets.Despite fluctuations in EV market growth, Nano One sees strong fundamentals across multiple applications including entry-level EVs, hybrid vehicles, and energy storage systems for renewable energy and data centers. The growing demand for energy to power AI and data centers is driving unprecedented need for battery storage, primarily using LFP technology.For 2025, Nano One is focused on expanding capacity at its Quebec facility and validating materials with customers, with the goal of progressing from initial agreements to formal sales contracts by year-end. The company has attracted strategic partners including Rio Tinto, Sumitomo Metal Mining, and Worley, prioritizing relationships with organizations that share their long-term vision.As geopolitical tensions highlight supply chain vulnerabilities, Nano One's technology addresses critical national security priorities by enabling North American battery material production independent from Chinese suppliers.View Nano One Materials' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/nano-one-materialsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Sodium-ion could be the next big thing. Last August, Natron announced a $1.4B factory in North Carolina. Other U.S. companies like Peak Energy, Bedrock Materials, and Acculon Energy are jockeying for position in the market. Meanwhile, almost all of the world's sodium-ion manufacturing capacity, current and planned, is in China. CATL's CEO Robin Zeng suggested that sodium-ion could ultimately take up to half of LFP's market share. The potential advantages are exciting: Sodium-based chemistries could be cheaper and safer. They could also use domestically sourced materials, avoiding the geopolitical headaches of minerals critical to the lithium-ion supply chain, like nickel, cobalt, and copper. So, amid all the sodium-ion hype, what's credible and what's not? In this episode, Shayle talks to Adrian Yao, founder of Stanford's STEER program, a battery research group specializing in techno-economic analysis. He's also a board member of lithium-ion manufacturer EnPower, where he was once a co-founder and CTO. Shayle and Adrian talk about the findings from a recent Nature paper Adrian co-authored exploring a techno-economic analysis of sodium-ion batteries. They cover topics like: The differences between sodium-ion and lithium-ion, as illustrated by the battery sandwich  Misconceptions about sodium-ion, for example, that it's necessarily safer  The biggest challenges: energy density and cost competitiveness How players in the lithium-ion supply chain could pivot to sodium-ion Why the technology's success may hinge on the price of nickel, copper, and other lithium-ion materials Recommended resources Nature Energy: Critically assessing sodium-ion technology roadmaps and scenarios for techno-economic competitiveness against lithium-ion batteries Latitude Media: Peak Energy's quest to build US sodium-ion battery dominance Heatmap: Is Sodium-Ion the Next Big Battery?

2024 has been another exceptional year for the battery industry. We have invited Aaron Wade to discuss the various technological and economic aspects of this rapidly expanding universe. Aaron is a rising star in the battery world. Not only is a key member of the Volta Foundation, but he is also Business Development Lead at Gaussion, a U.K. start up that improves charging capacities in batteries.The Volta Foundation just released its monumental 516 pages report, covering industry, technology, research, government policy, standards. It is a must read for anybody in the industry.Link to the Volta Foundation report: https://volta.foundation/battery-report-2024With Aaron, we talk about the pivotal role of China, the evolution of the supply chain (do we have enough minerals? Spoiler Alert: Yes), the chemistries, the form factors, recycling and second life. We discuss industry consolidation among the leading suppliers. We dive into the rise of LFP, the divergence between EV and ESS industries, and the expected evolutions of technologies (sodium ion, solid state, semi solid state), Finally we debate about the prices of cells, packs and systems.A great conversation to assess the current state of play in this ultra dynamic sector.------------------------  Beside the Volta Foundation, the 2 must read reports which came out a few weeks agoEmber when it comes to Electricity European Electricity Review 2025Nat Bullard when it comes to Climate and Decarbonisationhttps://ember-energy.org/latest-insights/european-electricity-review-2025/https://www.nathanielbullard.com/presentationsAaron Wade is the Business Development Lead for Gaussion, enhancing battery performance through magneto-enhancement, and a project director for the Volta Foundation. He was previously the head of battery costs at CRU, helping clients understand the ever changing world of battery cost and technology. Aaron has a PhD from University College London, researching the degradation of battery chemistries using X-ray imaging.  Gaussion develop magnetic-enhancement components as a bolt-on for all batteries, unlocking faster charging and longer lifetimes. The solution is chemistry and form factor agnostic, and can result in up to 6x faster charging and up to 8x longer lifetimes.   

Shoot us a Text.Happy hump day, auto industry! Today, we're covering how BYD is integrating premium autonomous driving tech into its entire lineup of cars. Plus Hyundai is getting in on solid-state EV batteries and Youtube is more popular on TVs than on phones.Show Notes with links:Chinese automaker BYD is going all-in on autonomous driving as it ramps up its challenge to Tesla's EV dominance. BYD announced that its "God's Eye" self-driving tech, featuring autonomous overtaking and remote parking, will be standard across all models.The ultra-affordable BYD Seagull, priced at just over $9,500, will also receive high-level autonomous features.The automaker's stock hit an all-time high following the announcement, climbing 4% on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.From the Daily Pushback Email team: “The price gap is staggering. BYD's smart-equipped Seagull? $9,555. Tesla's cheapest China-made model? $32,000. Ford's entry-level Mustang Mach-E? $39,995”“Affordability and reliability move units—and Chinese EVs are delivering both at a pace that should make U.S. automakers nervous. Two out of three new cars sold in China this year will have some level of self-driving tech, according to industry estimates.”Hyundai is making a major move in the EV battery race with its upcoming all-solid-state battery pilot line. The advanced tech, set to debut in March, could significantly boost range, charging speeds, and energy density, positioning Hyundai as a leader in the evolving EV landscape.The company is investing over $9 billion in EV battery development over the next decade, including LFP, NCM, and all-solid-state options.Hyundai aims to mass-produce all-solid-state batteries by 2030, with prototype EVs featuring the technology expected this year.General Motors and other industry leaders are expected to attend the opening ceremony, signaling growing partnerships.Other automakers are racing to develop solid-state batteries, with Honda revealing a solid-state pilot line of EVs last November, and Toyota aiming for commercialization by 2027-2028.YouTube is officially more popular on TVs than on phones, with over 1 billion hours of content streamed daily on television screens. As YouTube solidifies its dominance in streaming, new features continue to blur the line between traditional TV and digital video.YouTube remains the most-watched streaming service in the U.S. for the second year, according to Nielsen.Platform updates include an improved TV layout, interactive features, and the ability to watch Shorts and live streams on TV.YouTube TV has surpassed 8 million subscribers, while YouTube Premium and Music have exceeded 100 million (including trials).CEO Neal Mohan emphasized YouTube's role in reshaping television: “The ‘new' television doesn't look like the ‘old' television.”Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email
