CATL Unveils 587Ah High-Capacity ESS Battery Cell. CATL officially showcased the new 587Ah high-capacity battery cell in its next-generation energy storage system, "Tianheng." This battery cell boasts an energy density of up to 430Wh/L and offers superior safety performance compared to traditional small battery cells while maintaining ultra-high energy efficiency. The product also introduces biomimetic SEI film technology, which effectively reduces active lithium loss, increasing the total throughput of the entire cell by 48% over its life cycle, further enhancing the economic efficiency of the energy storage system. It is expected to drive an internal rate of return (IRR) increase of 2% to 3%. The launch of this product marks another technological breakthrough for CATL in the field of high-density, large-cycle energy storage.
