Another subsidiary of Samsung Electronics , known as Samsung SDI , is involved in the research and production of batteries. Countless Samsung devices, including computers, smartphones, tablets, and wearables, rely on batteries manufactured by Samsung SDI.
In addition to Hyundai and Genesis , they are also featured in electric vehicles manufactured by Fiat and BMW . The business is now planning to introduce an entirely new battery type.
Samsung SDI intends to introduce solid-state batteries by the year 2027 . A new team has been assembled to bring the company’s ASB ( All-Solid-State Battery ) technology to market, with Go Joo – young , VP of the large-scale battery business division, at the control, as reported by KED Global . The business is seeking to collaborate with clients and partners in order to expedite the launch.

To allow ions to flow between the anode and cathode, traditional batteries require a liquid electrolyte. Solid-state batteries, on the other hand, use solid materials. There will be less fire danger, longer battery life, and more energy density as a result of this. The ASB test production line was launched earlier this year at Samsung SDI’s research centre in Suwon , South Korea .
The goal of Samsung SDI’s sulfide-based technology is to introduce all-solid-state batteries that can store more than 900 Wh/L of energy. Before it enters energy storage systems and consumer devices like smartphones, laptops, and tablets, these batteries are expected to be used in electric vehicles.
