Underneath the hood of an electric vehicle is the car’s battery pack. That lithium-ion battery is where the car stores all its energy. In this video, Popular Science explores the most common battery types used today by automakers: NMC, NCA and LFP. While they might all look the same, there are some big differences between them. We explain how building batteries made from more abundant materials like iron, allows batteries to be more cost effective, more sustainable and more durable than batteries that rely on critical materials like nickel and cobalt.

We partnered with @ournextenergy to show how lithium iron phosphate (LFP) is making a big difference in the future of electrification. Learn more at .

Video presented by Our Next Energy.
