LG Energy aims for 30% of sales from energy storage by year-end

LG Energy Solution aims to significantly increase the proportion of its energy storage system (ESS) business sales to 30% by the end of the year. This strategic shift is supported by a recent multi-million yuan angel++ round of funding for "Lingdong Xinguang," a silicon photonics company. The funds will accelerate the development and implementation of core chip-to-chip optical interconnect technologies, including their SmartComb multi-wavelength dense light source and SmartPHY optical I/O chiplets. Separately, DeepSeek has announced a major update, and there's a discussion about the rising costs of AI coding assistants like Copilot and Claude, questioning their economic viability compared to hiring human programmers.
