LFP typically has an energy density ranging from 140 Wh/kg to 220 Wh/kg. NMC batteries can achieve energy densities exceeding 300 Wh/kg. The lower energy density of LFP results in larger battery sizes for similar energy outputs compared to NMC or NCA technologies.
[pdf] Recognizing this, in March 2025, Mexico´s government announced a mandate requiring all new solar and wind power plants to include storage systems equivalent to 30% of their capacity, with the goal of adding 574MW of batteries by 2028.
[pdf] When selecting LiFePO4 batteries for solar storage, it is important to consider factors such as battery capacity, depth of discharge, temperature range, charging and discharging efficiency, and compatibility wit.
