Panasonic and LG energy will each start making 4680 batteries in different factories for Tesla starting around August 2024.<\/p>\n

The LG Ochang plant should have a combined 35 gigawatt-hour battery production capacity by 2025. LG Energy Solution had planned to secure a 200 gigawatt-hour production capacity in North America, Europe and Asia combined by the end of 2022 and 520 gigawatt-hour capacity by 2025.<\/a> LG produced just over 100 GWh of batteries in 2023 but LG has more underused capacity.<\/p>\n

The capacity of the LG US plant was increased to 36 GWh annually last year. <\/p>\n

Panasonic has a new factory of 2170-type cells for EVs in De Soto, Kansas. The plant is a $4 billion project with an initial output of 30 GWh\/year. Panasonic said it planned to begin production between April and September 2024. Panasonic will produce a new and improved version of the 2170 cells used in Tesla Model 3 and Model Y at the plant in Nevada that it operates with Tesla sometime during 2024 or 2025.<\/p>\n

Panasonic will soon start another US battery manufacturing plant.<\/a> Panasonic plans to raise its production capacity to 200 GWh by 2030 from its current limit of 50 GWh. <\/p>

Samsung is building a production line with an initial capacity of 1GWh per year.<\/p>\n

SK On is likely starting the development of 4680 batteries.<\/a><\/p>\n
