> However, BYD is not stopping at 1000V charging. In November, leaked information showed that BYD is working on the world’s fastest battery for electric construction machinery. It will feature a 1500V high-voltage platform, 400A max current, up to 600 kW charging power, over 7000 life cycles, and a maximum capacity of 2,500 kWh. The battery will have lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry.

Incredible. That is almost 20 years of service life assuming daily cycling.
