  "summary": "LG Energy Solution and Samsung SDI are experiencing a shift in their revenue mix as the demand for energy storage systems (ESS) grows. The share of ESS in their total revenue is expected to rise from the 20% range in the second quarter to the mid-30% range by the end of the year. This growth is driven by the increasing power consumption from artificial intelligence data centers and the expansion of power grids in North America. Both companies are accelerating the conversion of their production lines to ESS products to offset the slowdown in electric vehicle demand.",
