Since 2004, the world has invested $6.7 trillion in the energy transition. It took eight years, from 2004 through 2011, to reach the first $1 trillion. It took less than four years to reach the
BYD targets a 15% cost reduction for its second-generation blade battery, which will launch in the first half of 2025, a source familiar with the matter told CarNewsChina. BYD''s
Founded in 1995 to make lithium batteries for consumer electronics, BYD has developed into one of the biggest producers of batteries for electric vehicles. In recent years, it has also developed
Aleksandra O''Donovan, BloombergNEF''s head of EVs, said the firm expects that "(a)ll of those trends will continue paving the way for further growth in 2025 and 2026, when a slew of cheaper
The new blade battery production facility is being built in Xuzhou in Jiangsu province and is scheduled to start production in December 2023. The plant will be built in two phases with a total investment of 10 billion yuan (1.4 billion euros) and will be designed for 15 GWh of annual capacity in its first phase.
The most rapid investment growth has been in clean technology manufacturing—with annual investment growing 125% year-on-year to $39 billion—and particularly within electric vehicle and solar manufacturing. Investment in clean energy production and industrial decarbonization rose 15% year-on-year to $61 billion. And household and

The Chinese giant, known for its substantial strides in the EV market, is now targeting a 15% reduction in battery costs with its next-generation Blade Battery 2.0. This move could potentially accelerate the global shift from fossil fuel to electric power, making EVs more accessible and economically viable for millions.
BYD targets a 15% cost reduction for its second-generation blade battery, which will launch in the first half of 2025, a source familiar with the matter told CarNewsChina. BYD''s blade battery 2.0 will have an energy density of up to 210 Wh/kg and support 16C peak discharge.

In a surprise move, China''s top battery manufacturer CATL will supply Tesla with lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries for Model 3 production at its newly built $2 billion factory outside Shanghai.
The blade is made by BYD and is just a pouch cell sandwiched in hard aluminum versus soft of other designs. Has little to do with the battery cell itself, and more to do with how the pack will be constructed. The 4680 is a tabless cylindrical cell. Nothing revolutionary, but a solid evolution of the hard cases cylindrical cell. Kind of like a
In EV batteries, Chinese enterprises have made important breakthroughs in battery chemistry, with some Chinese EV battery start-ups now working to develop EV batteries they assert will have a 2,000 kilometer (km) (1,300 miles) range. With the battery accounting for as much as 40 percent of the value of an EV, the country''s dominance in EV
Presumably, BYD hopes this setup will allow the company to supply the U.S. market — and it has a shot. BYD USA was established in 2011 and has a factory in Lancaster, California, that employs more than 750 unionized workers. As Xing Lei, the independent consultant, notes, "BYD America has been studying the U.S. market for years. They''re
The gigafactory is being built on the site of the former Blyth Power Station. In addition to the 3,000 people at the site, Britishvolt estimates at least another 5,000 jobs will be created in the

The BYD Seal, leading the electric lineup of BYD cars, demonstrates the potential of first-generation lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) blade batteries by offering a considerable 354 mile (570 km) range with 150kWh density. BYD''s upcoming Han EV, launching this June, will feature the advanced blade battery. Leading the Dynasty Family lineup, this
Today, Ford, Tesla and Toyota all use LFP batteries in their cars in China, as do many Chinese automakers. And in just three years after BYD released the Blade battery it
However, most spending has been in advanced economies with developing ones focusing more on consumer affordability measures. Russia''s invasion of Ukraine and the ensuing geo-political instability has seen many countries scramble to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels. That''s one of the key findings of the International Energy Agency''s (IEA) latest Government
BYD is considering introducing its next-generation Blade EV battery, promising to redefine electric mobility with extended range and reduced costs.

BYD CTP (Cell to Pack) technology makes the difference, with the Blade Battery increasing space utilization by 50%. This improves energy density and allows more batteries in a compact space, with a longer driving range. The ''honeycomb-like aluminum'' design of the Blade Battery also provides greater rigidity and safety. The BYD TANG, BYD HAN and
"All BYD EV models are now topped with Blade batteries." The battery plant in Chongqing, China, is BYD''s first-ever battery factory among its six in the country, where it invested more than 18 billion yuan ($2.5 billion) for an annual capacity of 20 gigawatt-hours.
It is not yet clear with which capacity the first production lines are to go into operation in December 2023 or when phase 1 is to reach the announced 15 GWh. The blade battery is an LFP cell with a special form factor in that the cells are very long, which makes them resemble the blade of a sword.
The Blade Battery 2.0, with its cost reduction strategy, could significantly lower the price of electric vehicles. A 15% decrease in battery cost could translate into a reduction in the vehicle’s overall price or could be used to increase the margin for manufacturers, making EVs more competitive against their gasoline counterparts.
