[INQ. NO. 2511M03] LG Energy Solution announced today that its integrated battery life management solution, Better.Re, has been named an honoree in the Vehicle Tech & Advanced Mobility category at the upcoming CES 2026 Innovation Awards. This marks the first time a battery company has earned this recognition purely through software technology.
Designed to maximize battery lifecycle and lower repair and replacement costs, the solution is expected to almost double the lifespan of mobility batteries.
Better.Re collects data on users’ driving, charging, and parking habits, assesses battery management against 16 key battery-aging factors, and provides personalized behavioral guidance via a dedicated app. The app’s user-friendly interface uses clear visual indicators to make battery health easier to understand, enabling more informed decisions. In addition, a reward system and certification program encourage continued use. Internal analysis suggests the solution could double the duration that an EV battery’s State of Health Capacity (SOHC), or the proportion of total expected life, is maintained at 98%, from 1.5 years to 3 years.
In certain controllable environments, such as Battery Swapping Stations (BSS), Better.Re applies proactive charging control when anomalies are predicted, in order to prevent battery degradation. According to LG Energy Solution’s internal analysis, the technology is expected to double the time from 5 years to 10 years before the SOHC of electric two-wheeler batteries drops below 70%.
As electrification expands, predicting and optimizing battery life is becoming increasingly critical, driving growth in the Battery as a Service (BaaS) market, which focuses on battery utilization across the entire product lifecycle. Better.Re provides machine learning-based prediction, anomaly detection, and safety control, establishing a cornerstone for BaaS business models — including warranty, insurance, swapping, leasing, and resale.
“This CES Innovation Award is a testament to our relentless pursuit of innovation,” explained Dal Hoon Lee, BMS R&D Group Leader at LG Energy Solution, adding, “We will continue to strengthen the competitiveness of our BaaS business with advanced technologies that effectively conduct safety diagnosis and manage battery degradation, further cementing our foothold in the energy industry.”

Korea’s EV Industry Expected to Continue Growing, Spurred by Tech Advances

November 27, 2025 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

Even as the global chasm (temporary slowdown in demand) in electric vehicles continues, the global EV industry is continuously developing.
The electric vehicle (EV) industry in Korea is seen as very important as a future growth engine, and as a key industry of the future. The government is therefore sparing no efforts in providing various policies and financial support necessary for the transition to zero-emission vehicles.
As of the end of 2024, a total of 700,000 EVs have been distributed in Korea, and the charging infrastructure has also exceeded 400,000. The proportion of zero-emission vehicles among new vehicles released annually is approaching 10%.
The Korean EV market, which has shown rapid growth in recent years, is slowing down due to reduced subsidies, lack of charging infrastructure, and high interest rates.

Latest Trends in Korea’s EV Industry
Automakers are expanding their investments in the development of next-generation EV platforms, battery technology innovation, and transition to software-centric vehicles (SDVs). In particular, software competitiveness such as AI-based autonomous-driving technology, connectivity, and infotainment systems is being highlighted as important.
Korea’s battery companies are focusing on developing next-generation battery technology, expanding production capacity, and stabilizing the supply chain. In particular, there is fierce competition in the development of next-generation battery technologies such as high-performance batteries, and all-solid-state batteries.
The Korean government and private companies are spurring the expansion of charging infrastructure to expand the supply of EVs. Various practical efforts are being made, such as expanding rapid-charging facilities, improving charging convenience, and introducing charging roaming services.

The secretary-general of the Korea Electric Vehicle Association (KEVA) commented on the future outlook for the Korean EVs industry: “The Korean EV market is expected to continue growing thanks to active support from the government and the technological advancement of domestic companies. It is expected that innovation in battery technology, expansion of charging infrastructure, and advancement of autonomous driving technology will further accelerate the growth of the industry. And continued growth in the EV-related parts industry is expected.”
Korean exporters are continuing to actively challenge overseas markets to increase their gradual growth of exports in the fourth quarter of this year, maintaining their growth drivers in the global market in the third quarter.
