LG Energy Solution seeks US import ban on EVE batteries

LG Energy Solution has initiated legal action in the United States against Chinese battery manufacturer EVE Energy, alleging patent infringement related to cylindrical battery technology. The company, through its patent management firm Tulip Innovation, filed complaints with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) and a federal court in Texas, targeting both EVE Energy and U.S. companies that purchase and sell its batteries. The case involves five patents, including those related to tabless cell and battery separator technologies. If successful, the ITC could issue an exclusion order preventing these products from entering the U.S., or restrict their sale within the country. EVE Energy, based in China, is a major producer of lithium-ion batteries and operates in the U.S. market. LG Energy Solution has previously taken similar actions in Europe, securing favorable rulings against competitors like Sunwoda, leading to licensing agreements.
