The battery war is about to break out, China's core elements are restricted, how do we break out of the encirclement?
Batteries are a key technology in the new energy era, while solid-state batteries are regarded as the future of power batteries. However, China faces challenges in solid-state battery technology and patents, which limit our development. In the face of the technological reserves and patent advantages of Japan and South Korea, as well as the huge investment of European and American countries, China seems to be in a situation of encirclement.
Solid-state batteries are a solution to solve problems such as battery life, safety, and leakage. Compared with traditional liquid batteries, solid-state batteries have higher energy density, better safety performance and longer service life. However, the commercial application of solid-state batteries will take time, and it is expected to take another 3-7 years.
Japan is a leader in solid-state battery technology, and Japanese companies such as Toyota have accumulated a wealth of technologies and patents in the field of solid-state batteries. European and American countries choose to obtain technology and patents by investing in solid-state battery companies. China mainly takes the road of independent research and development, although lagging behind Japan, South Korea and Europe and the United States in terms of technology and patents, China occupies a large share of the global market, which is also our strength to break out of the encirclement.
In addition to solid-state batteries, China is also exploring new technologies such as semi-solid-state batteries and lithium-sulfur batteries. Semi-solid batteries have good potential to improve cruising range, while lithium-sulfur batteries have higher energy density. These technologies are expected to become our powerful tools to deal with the battery war.
In addition, Chinese power battery companies have also made progress in the innovation of traditional power batteries. BYD's blade battery can greatly improve the volume utilization rate of the battery and improve the cruising range. This innovation gives us confidence in the future.
In the battery war, Chinese battery companies not only have to face technical and patent restrictions, but also face the suppression of the United States and other countries. However, our share of the global lithium battery market cannot be ignored. In recent years, China's lithium battery production and exports are growing steadily. Fujian CATL, SAIC and other enterprises are promoting the development of semi-solid batteries. We have a huge global market, which is our biggest advantage to beat the siege.
The battery war is about to break out, and China's solid-state batteries are facing many challenges. However, we still have semi-solid batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries and other technologies to explore and make progress in traditional power battery innovation. At the same time, China has a huge share of the global lithium battery market, which is also where our strength lies. In the competition in the field of solid-state batteries, China still has a chance to win the siege.
