China, the EU, and India are likely to take the lead when it comes to growing the lithium-ion battery recycling market, while the US still needs to deploy the necessary infrastructure to match the
China lags behind the US in cutting-edge technology. In the early 1980s of the last century, Chinese paramount leader Deng Xiaoping proposed the realisation of "Four Modernisations" in China: industry, agriculture, national defence, as well as science and technology. Over 40 years have passed, and China has indeed achieved major improvements and incredible
When it comes to supply chains for the electric vehicle industry, China is far ahead for the number of batteries and EV cars that it produces. It''s also cornered the market on the minerals,...
To systematically solve the key problems of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) such as "driving range anxiety, long battery charging time, and driving safety hazards", China took
To systematically solve the key problems of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) such as "driving range anxiety, long battery charging time, and driving safety hazards", China took the lead in putting forward a "system engineering-based technology system architecture for BEVs" and clarifying its connotation. This paper analyzes the research
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
now, with the lion''s share of the market (Figure 6). In 2022 China sold 60% of batteries in the world. With the increasing demand for EVs, Chinese manufacturers have been investing heavily in the development of EV battery technology, resulting in significant cost reductions and improvements in battery performance. Figure 6.
Batteries are just one example of how China is catching up with — or passing — advanced industrial democracies in its technological and manufacturing sophistication. It is achieving many...
The world is lagging behind China on EV battery innovation to the extent that global manufacturers are barely able to compete. Japanese auto giant Nissan, for instance, last month announced a "breakthrough" in the development of solid-state batteries — light alternatives with longer range compared to traditional lithium-ion EV

At the Beijing Auto Show in April, CATL, the world''s largest electric vehicle (EV) battery maker, stunned many with a new product. The Shenxing Plus battery can power an EV for more than 1,000 kilometres on a single charge, according to CATL. That''s enough to get from Guangzhou to Wuhan, or London to Berlin.
Geographical breakdown of AI patents in 2024. China and the U.S. stand far above other countries in terms of overall AI patents. Japan and South Korea show identical patent volumes of 1,537 each in the dataset, though Japan achieves this with slightly fewer companies (41 vs. 43) resulting in a higher patents-per-company ratio of 37.5 compared to South Korea''s
As such, catching up in lithography has long been a central focus of China''s chip aspirations, with the efforts going back to China''s "Project 02" launched in 2008, called "The Project of Manufacturing Complete Sets of Technology for Very Large Integrated Circuits." [109] Despite these efforts, as Triolo wrote, "Chinese lithography companies appear to be years
China''s dominance in the battery market is staggering. According to SNE Research, more than half of all electric car batteries built in the world come from Chinese companies, with CATL alone accounting for over one-third of global production. And it''s not just about factories in China anymore; Chinese firms have set up shop in Europe too.
In an exclusive excerpt from his new book Climate Capitalism, Akshat Rathi explains the origin of China''s dominance in the battery market through the lens of CATL, now the world''s largest battery company.

Taxpayers spent $15 million on research to build a breakthrough battery. Then the U.S. government gave it to China.
USA is going to continue to lag. China and Europe have a vastly larger public transit network. Europe also doesn''t have nearly as many folks traveling 500-1000-2000 miles on a road trip. We have 1 EV currently, I want a second EV, but we also do very long trips camping. It''s near impossible for me to travel from Wisconsin to say Montana

While Panasonic is the world''s largest supplier of electric vehicle batteries globally, China''s BYD and CATL were just behind, according to figures collated by Bernstein, the research group.
Over the past decade, China has come to dominate this critical industry. Across every stage of the value chain for current-generation lithium-ion battery technologies, from mineral extraction and processing to battery
Researchers in China lead the world in publishing widely cited papers in 52 of 64 critical technologies, recent calculations by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute reveal. China’s advances in battery research have helped it gain a dominant position in electric vehicles. Gilles Sabrié for The New York Times
China dominates the EV battery industry. Can the rest of the world catch up? China is dominant in every aspect of electric vehicle battery technology. Now the rest of the world is trying to catch up. SCOTT SIMON, HOST:

Still, China’s battery companies are looking for ways to produce in the United States for the American market. Building and equipping an electric-car battery factory in the United States costs six times as much as in China, said Robin Zeng, the chairman and founder of CATL. The work is also slow — “three times longer,” he said in an interview.
China’s lead is particularly wide in batteries. According to the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, 65.5 percent of widely cited technical papers on battery technology come from researchers in China, compared with 12 percent from the United States.

Likewise, Chinese enterprises dominate in the global share of EV battery manufacturing. CATL accounts for 37 percent of the global EV battery market followed by FDB with 16 percent, giving China’s top two competitors alone over half the global market. (See figure 6.)
