Batteries can't last forever. If you own a smartphone, you'll notice that the battery's charge diminishes over time and that you need to plug in your phone more often. But this issue isn't exclusive to smartphone batteries. All batteries have a limited lifespan and eventually need to be replaced. Even home batteries, giant lithium-ion batteries that act as a backup power source for your home, are not immune to the inevitable demise their smaller counterparts face.

The lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery chemistry has been a godsend for both the energy storage and electric vehicle industries. Due to the relative abundance of iron phosphate, LFP cells are much cheaper to produce compared to nickel batteries. Not only that, but they can be charged to 100% more often with less capacity degradation over time.
