An increase in production volume, particularly in China, helped in achieving the economies of scale in lithium-ion battery manufacturing. In addition to these, the large capacity additions also increased the competition among manufacturers, further declining the prices but at the expense of the profitability of the manufacturers.
According to the Lithium Battery Research Institute (GGII) statistics, China's lithium battery shipments in 2020 will be 143GWh, a year-on-year increase of 22%. The growth rate is more than 25%. Shipment volume and forecast of China's lithium battery market from 2016 to 2025 (unit: GWh, %)
From 2001 to 2008, early players like BYD, Shenzhen Bike Battery, and Tianjin Lishen Battery have grown their investments in battery research and brought growth to the Chinese lithium battery industry. However, there were moments of stagnation during this period with issues of scaling and meaning the demands from across the world.
One of the major causes of lower prices in China is lower labor costs. The share of China in lithium-ion battery manufacturing is growing rapidly, with manufacturers like CATL registering the highest revenue and battery production growth among the top lithium-ion battery manufacturers.
In 2019, there were 131.6GWH produced in China, and in the 2023, reached to 940GWH The battery production concerning the consumer demand is near saturation in China, however consumer demand for lithium batteries applications on vehicles is expected to have continual growth in the upcoming decades.
In the upstream, China only accounts for 14% of global lithium production. 15 Despite this, Chinese companies established an upstream presence in recent years through a buying spree of stakes in mines around the world. The buying spree is being conducted by battery makers and miners alike.
