K-battery big three look to ESS to offset EV losses
South Korea’s three main battery makers are accelerating a shift toward energy storage systems (ESS) to help offset weak electric-vehicle demand this year. Analysts expect LG Energy Solution’s ESS revenue to surge, while Samsung SDI is seen securing large orders and converting North American lines to ESS output. SK On is restructuring to enable ESS supply and adding safety technology. AI data centre power demand is seen boosting U.S. ESS needs, though fixed-cost burdens and tariff uncertainty remain risks.

SK On develops early detection technology for ESS fires with EIS diagnostic system
SK On is introducing an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy-based diagnostic system to strengthen the fire safety of energy storage systems, it said on Monday. The company signed a memorandum of understanding with the Electrical Safety Research Institute of the Korea Electrical Safety Corp to jointly study advanced fire safety and next-generation safety technology. The partners plan to upgrade evaluation methods, pursue research on new battery materials and build international cooperation centred on G-SAFE.

SK On expands ESS portfolio with vanadium batteries
SK On and SK Innovation signed an agreement with Standard Energy to develop vanadium-ion battery-based energy storage system technology, SK On said. SK On will expand its lineup to include VIBs alongside NCM and LFP, focusing on short-duration ESS used in data centres and industrial facilities. SK On will collaborate across materials, cells and BMS, while SK Innovation will improve electrolyte additives and use recovered vanadium to cut costs.
