Advanced Automotive Battery
With the world’s leading battery technology and robust global
production capacity, LG Energy Solution is driving the popularization of electric vehicles and pioneering the future of mobility innovation.
Through advanced products such as the “Long Cell” battery, which maximizes energy
density and extends driving range, combined with our stable global production capabilities, we have established strategic partnerships with global top-tier automakers, leading the global EV market.
Beyond cells, modules, BMS (Battery Management System), and packs, our total battery
solutions—including comprehensive technical support—are opening new markets for batteries in electric buses, trucks, ships, and urban air mobility (UAM), further advancing the innovation of future mobility.
IT & New Application Battery
With advanced material technology enabling superior battery
performance and flexible design, LG Energy Solution powers a wide range of devices—from IT products to LEVs—ushering in the era of the Battery of Things (BOT).
With the world’s first freeform battery and high-performance standardized batteries, LG Energy Solution leads the small battery market by powering a wide range of products, including IT devices, home appliances, and LEVs (Light Electric Vehicles).
Leveraging advanced material technology and process innovations, our product capabilities
meet the demands for high capacity, high power, and ultra-slim design. These strengths
enable battery applications in future technologies such as drones, robots, and electric vehicles, contributing to the Battery of Things (BOT) era—where batteries power every aspect of daily life.
ESS Battery
With a comprehensive ESS product lineup built on decades of battery manufacturing expertise and know-how, LG Energy Solution is expanding the adoption of renewable energy and driving the era of smart grids to support carbon neutrality.
Through high-performance, high-quality batteries and mass production capabilities, we have established strong partnerships with customers across various ESS applications—including grid, commercial, and UPS—leading the ESS market while contributing to the wider deployment of renewable energy.
Building on our accumulated technology and expertise, we are also advancing reuse solutions that repurpose spent batteries into ESS batteries, playing a key role in establishing smart grids that enhance energy efficiency.
New Business
By integrating accumulated battery lifecycle data with advanced IT technologies, LG Energy Solution is unlocking new value and pioneering the possibilities of a circular battery ecosystem.
BaaS creates value across the entire battery lifecycle. Our business includes the Battery Swapping Station (BSS) platform for electric two-wheelers, the B-Lifecare service that provides continuous monitoring for EV users, and the BMTS business, which goes beyond conventional BMS by leveraging cloud and AI technologies for safety diagnostics, degradation and lifespan prediction, supporting the transition to Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs).
EaaS integrates renewable energy resources into the grid. As a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) operator, LG Energy Solution participates in renewable energy bidding programs, contributing to the wider adoption of renewables and the stabilization of power systems.
LG Energy Solution, with its outstanding product technology, offers an extensive lineup of pouch batteries ranging from IT devices to EVs and ESS, delivering optimal energy solutions.
