All-solid-state batteries are considered to be the future development trend of vehicle batteries, and recently there have been reports that foreign countries have successfully developed all-solid-state batteries, and their endurance has reached an astonishing 2,000 kilometers, however, China's automotive industry does not seem to cause enough sense of crisis.
This phenomenon has raised concerns about the international competitiveness of China's auto manufacturing. This article will talk about this phenomenon in combination with relevant situations at home and abroad.
The development trend of all-solid-state batteries
All-solid-state battery is a new type of battery, compared with traditional liquid batteries, all-solid-state battery has advantages in safety and energy density.
All-solid-state batteries do not contain liquid electrolytes, so there is no danger of liquid electrolyte leakage or explosion. And due to its higher energy density, all-solid-state batteries can provide more energy storage capacity in the same size of space, so that the range of electric vehicles is significantly improved.
Therefore, all-solid-state batteries are considered to be the future development trend of vehicle batteries.
Foreign countries have successfully developed all-solid-state batteries
In the research and development of all-solid-state batteries, foreign technology companies have been leading the way. Recently, researchers around the world are conducting research and development work on all-solid-state batteries.
For example, Japan's solar company Panasonic launched an all-solid-state battery last year, which can last an average of 420 miles (about 676.4 kilometers) at 0-60mph.
Recently, the American technology company QuantumScape announced that it has successfully developed an all-solid-state battery with higher energy density and longer life than existing on-board batteries, and its range has reached 2,000 kilometers. This breakthrough will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the future new energy automobile industry.
Chinese car companies still have a sense of crisis?
Although the breakthrough of all-solid-state batteries is of great significance for the new energy automobile industry, there are huge differences between the situation at home and abroad: foreign technology companies continue to develop and launch new battery technologies, while Chinese auto companies do not realize the seriousness of the problem.
Many Chinese automotive companies don't seem to realize that the breakthrough of all-solid-state batteries will have a significant impact on their business. At the same time, some foreign companies are actively competing to incorporate all-solid-state batteries into the prototype technology of new energy vehicles.
If Chinese automakers don't recognize the problem and act accordingly, it will be difficult to keep up with global competition.
Although China's automotive sector has launched some more advanced battery technologies, domestic research in all-solid-state batteries lags far behind foreign countries.
If Chinese automakers fail to step up research and development of all-solid-state batteries, they may face pressure to compete with mature markets and miss out on opportunities to develop emerging markets.
Summary:
In short, all-solid-state batteries may be one of the key technologies in the future new energy automotive industry, which can provide better safety, higher energy density and longer life, and further meet people's demand for automobiles.
While foreign tech companies have developed all-solid-state batteries and are beginning to bring the technology to market, Chinese automakers don't seem to be realizing the magnitude of the problem.
Therefore, Chinese automakers need to strengthen the research and development of all-solid-state batteries in order to maintain their edge in global competition. Only in this way can we have sufficient competitiveness and adapt to the development trend of the future new energy vehicle market.
