The company to deliver first grid-scale ESS batteries manufactured at its Poland facility
 
 [INQ. NO. 2504M14] LG Energy Solution recently announced that it has signed an agreement with Polska Grupa Energetyczna (PGE), Poland’s largest energy sector company, to supply 981MWh of grid-scale ESS batteries between 2026 and 2027.
Both companies will collaborate to establish a battery-energy storage facility in Żarnowiec, Poland. PGE plans to commence the project’s commercial operation in 2027.
LG Energy Solution will also provide a turnkey solution encompassing containerized battery systems, and Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) services with partners in Europe.
This project will realize the first grid-scale ESS batteries to be manufactured at LG Energy Solution’s production facility in Poland. The company will supply high-capacity LFP long-cell batteries with enhanced energy efficiency and safety, high energy density compared to conventional LFP solutions, and liquid cooling technology that optimizes performance and reliability.

“This project is one of the largest ESS initiatives led by LG Energy Solution in Europe,” explained Hyung Kim, Head of the ESS Battery Division at LG Energy Solution. “By launching LFP-based products designed specifically for the European market and leveraging our local production capabilities, we have maximized customer value.”
He continued, “We are honored to support Poland’s energy transition through this agreement. Moving forward, we will continue to provide optimal solutions for our customers and accelerate the expansion of our ESS business in Europe.”

Hyundai Motor Co. Unveils NEXO Hydrogen EV Model & Ioniq 6 EV Model

April 22, 2025 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2504M13] Hyundai Motor Company recently unveiled its all-new NEXO, its new hydrogen-powered EV, and the new IONIQ 6, its dedicated EV, a world-first, at the Seoul Mobility Show 2025 held at KINTEX in Ilsan, Gyeonggi Province, on April 5-13.
Jose Muñoz, President and CEO of Hyundai Motor Company, stated, “We will continue to innovate future mobility based on Hyundai Motor Company’s DNA. We will lead the era of electrification with high-quality products and a customer-centered product lineup.”

Hyundai Motor Company Unveils New Hydrogen EV, the All-New NEXO
Hyundai Motor Company solidified its position as a brand that leads the hydrogen-energy vision beyond being just an automobile manufacturer by unveiling the new hydrogen electric vehicle (EV), the All-New NEXO, for the first time in the world at the Seoul Mobility Show 2025.
The All-New NEXO is an eco-friendly hydrogen EV model that proves the reality of the hydrogen vision as a completely changed model compared with the first model launched in March 2018.
Hyundai Motor Company has implemented a new approach that reflects the material properties through reflecting the new design language, ‘Art of Steel,’ based on the hydrogen EV concept car, Inisium, unveiled in October last year.
The All-New NEXO has the strong image of a sports utility vehicle (SUV) while also having a unique design unique to hydrogen EVs.

The front daytime running lights (DRLs) and rear combination lamps feature the HTWO lamp symbol, which symbolizes the molecular formula for hydrogen (H2) and the axes of hydrogen (Hydrogen) and humanity (Humanity), and harmonizes with the three-dimensionally designed bumper to complete a bold yet sophisticated impression.
The side contour created with bold straight lines is combined with the cross-section of the arch structure that wraps around the side and rear to emphasize the solid and sturdy identity of the All-New NEXO.
Hyundai Motor Company applied a two-stage motor system equipped with two inverters to the All New NEXO, thereby increasing efficiency to 90%; and based on this, achieved a maximum motor output of 150kW.
This is a 1.3%p increase in system efficiency and a 25% increase in motor output compared to the existing model. During daily driving, one inverter operates, and during high-speed driving, both inverters operate, thereby providing optimal motor output according to the driving situations.
Based on this wide range of performance improvements, the All New NEXO achieved acceleration performance of 7.8 seconds from 0 km/h to 100 km/h, and is expected to be able to drive over 700 km with a short charging time of only about five minutes.

Hyundai Launches New Ioniq 6 EV
The New Ioniq 6 is a partially modified model of the Ioniq 6 released in September 2022. It inherits the concept of the ‘Electrified Streamliner,’ a new design type of Hyundai Motor Company’s electrification era ― but is newly born with a silhouette that maximizes the sleek image with more attractive curves and beautiful proportions.

The Ioniq 6 focused on connecting the body flow more precisely and naturally based on the evolved concept of ‘Pure flow, Refined.’
To achieve this, Hyundai Motor Company raised the starting point of the front hood of the New Ioniq 6 and improved the existing hood into a long hood with a shark-nose shape, creating an impression as if it were cutting through the air. The existing protruding spoiler was eliminated and the ducktail spoiler was extended to complete a sleek side contour while extending aerodynamic performance.

The new IONIQ 6 N Line, which was unveiled together, inherited the design DNA of the 22-year-old rolling lab, ‘RN22e,’ and added a sporty feel.
The bumper design with a garnish reminiscent of wings transforms the image of the New IONIQ 6 N Line into a sporty and aggressive one, and the side sill is emphasized with single-line wraps around the lower body, visually lowering the stance.
The interior design of the New IONIQ 6 was improved with an emphasis on the maintenance of the ‘Mindful Cocoon’ concept, with the focus on a more comfortable and intuitive user experience.
