Umuyobozi mukuru wa Tesla, Elon Musk, mu guhamagarwa kwinjiza yagize ati: "Niba ucukuye nikel mu buryo bunoze kandi bwangiza ibidukikije, Tesla izaguha amasezerano menshi." Umusesenguzi w’umunyamerika, Wood Mackenzie, avuga ko mu myaka icumi, fosifate ya Lithium fer (LFP) izabikora gusimbuza lithium manganese cobalt oxyde (NMC) nkibikoresho nyamukuru bibika ingufu za chimique.

Ariko, Musk kuva kera yashyigikiye kuvana cobalt muri bateri, birashoboka rero ko aya makuru atari yose kuri we.

Nk’uko imibare ya Wood Mackenzie ibigaragaza, bateri za lithium fer fosifate (LFP) zagize 10% by'isoko ryo kubika ingufu zihagaze mu 2015. Kuva icyo gihe, icyamamare cyabo cyazamutse cyane kandi kizatwara isoko rirenga 30% ku isoko mu 2030.

Iri zamuka ryatangiye kubera ibura rya bateri n'ibikoresho bya NMC mu mpera za 2018 no mu ntangiriro z'umwaka ushize.Kubera ko kubika ingufu zihagaze hamwe n’ibinyabiziga byamashanyarazi (ev) byabonye kohereza byihuse, kuba imirenge yombi isangiye chimie ya batiri byanze bikunze byateje ikibazo.

Umuyobozi mukuru w’isesengura rya Wood Mackenzie, Mitalee Gupta yagize ati: "Kubera uburyo NMC yaguye kandi igiciro cyinshi, abatanga LFP batangiye kwinjira ku isoko ryabujijwe na NMC ku giciro cyo gupiganwa, bityo LFP ikaba ishimishije haba mu gukoresha ingufu n’ingufu."

Ikintu kimwe gitera ubwiganze bwa LFP bizaba itandukaniro riri hagati yubwoko bwa bateri ikoreshwa mububiko bwingufu nubwoko bwa bateri ikoreshwa mumashanyarazi, kuko ibikoresho bizagira ingaruka kubindi bishya no guhanga.

Sisitemu yo kubika ingufu za lithium-ion iriho igabanya inyungu ninyungu zubukungu iyo ukwezi kurenze amasaha 4-6, bityo kubika ingufu zigihe kirekire birakenewe byihutirwa.Gupta yavuze ko yiteze kandi ko ubushobozi bwo gukira cyane hamwe n’umuvuduko mwinshi bizafata umwanya wa mbere kuruta ubwinshi bw’ingufu n’ubwizerwe bw’isoko ryo kubika ingufu zihagaze, byombi bateri za LFP zishobora kumurika.

Nubwo kwiyongera kwa LFP ku isoko rya batiri y’imodoka y’amashanyarazi bidatangaje nko mu rwego rwo kubika ingufu zihagaze, raporo ya Wood Mackenzie yerekanye ko porogaramu zigendanwa zikoresha ibikoresho bya elegitoronike zirimo fosifati ya lithium idashobora kwirengagizwa.

Iyi miti isanzwe izwi cyane ku isoko ry’imodoka z’amashanyarazi mu Bushinwa kandi biteganijwe ko izashimwa n’isi yose.WoodMac iteganya ko mu 2025, LFP izaba ifite ibice birenga 20% bya bateri zose zikoresha amashanyarazi.

Wood Mackenzie ushinzwe isesengura ry’ubushakashatsi Milan Thakore yavuze ko imbaraga nyamukuru zo gukoresha LFP mu bijyanye n’imodoka z’amashanyarazi zizava mu kunoza imiti y’imiti mu bijyanye n’ubucucike bw’ingufu ndetse n’ikoranabuhanga ryo gupakira batiri.
