It aims to strengthen the domestic production base of liquid-electrolyte lithium batteries, increase production capacity, and secure the domestic and global market for lithium-ion batteries so that Japanese companies do not further lose the market competition before solid-state batteries are commercialised.
As an early technology leader, Japan began funding lithium-ion batteries, especially the development of solid-state batteries and certain types of alternative batteries. Total battery funding by NEDO between 2009–2022 (for Solid-EV and RISING 1, 2 and 3 projects) is estimated by ca. 58 billion yen.
For that reason, only small warehouses can be set up in Japan for electrolyte and products containing it, making it difficult to establish a supply chain for lithium-ion batteries, experts said.
batteries are commercialised. Japan imports about 90% of its primary energy requirements and is vulnerable to energy supply disruptions overseas. In recent years, new energy security factors have been studied.
So, the government is also considering joint development projects in Argentina and Chile, major producers of lithium, in cooperation with willing countries in Europe and the United States. In 2015, Japan had the largest share of the world market for storage batteries for automobiles, at about 50%.
