Will China build a solid-state battery supply chain by 2030?

Aiming to build a supply chain for solid-state batteries by 2030, Beijing in January set up a consortium, the China All-Solid-State Battery Collaborative Innovation Platform (CASIP), which brings together government, academia, and industry, including EV battery rivals CATL and BYD.

Are sulfide-based all-solid-state batteries coming to China?

At a conference held by the China Automotive Battery Innovation Alliance late last week, Ouyang Minggao, a renowned battery expert and an academician with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that in China, the closest technical route to industrialization is the sulfide-based all-solid-state batteries.

Could China's all-solid-state batteries revolutionize the EV market?

In a move that could revolutionize the EV market, China’s leading auto and battery manufacturers are forming an alliance to commercialize all solid-state batteries. According to Nikkei Asia, the China All-Solid-State Battery Collaborative Innovation Platform, or CASIP, was formed last month.

Will solid-state EV batteries make China a powerhouse?

Chen Qingtai, head of China EV100, argued that solid-state EV batteries can shift the industry’s power balance. Working together will ensure China becomes an “automotive powerhouse.” Although many others, including Toyota, have promised to bring solid-state EV battery tech to market for years, there’s still little show.

Are Chinese companies ready for a solid-state battery?

Solid-state batteries are sensitive to moisture, so their manufacturers need special equipment to keep humidity away from production lines. While government initiatives should accelerate solid-state battery development, Chinese companies aren’t waiting. Battery makers have already started formulating plans for the next-gen technology.

What will China's battery industry be like until 2030?

Xu Yanhua, secretary of the China Automotive Battery Innovation Alliance, said that until 2030, the country's power battery industry will still be dominated by high-energy-density liquid batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries.
