According to the statistics of SNER Research, there are six battery companies in China that are listed on the top 10 of the global EV battery installed capacity, which is far ahead of other countries in terms of market share and the number on the list. And a new round of fighting reappears in the circuit of solid-state batteries.

China's battery companies have begun to enter the solid-state battery arms race on a large scale. Dozens of companies such as Qingtao, Weilan, Huineng, Tailan, Enli Solid State, High-energy Times, and Mengwei have successively launched solid state batteries with energy density of 400Wh/kg, and plan to put them into mass production from 2022 to 2023. With the momentum of 1000-kilometer endurance BEV advancing rapidly, China's automobile enterprises such as SAIC Zhiji, GAC Aian, Weilai, and Gaohe have actively researched or cooperated with solid state battery manufacturers to jointly promote the process of solid state battery installation.

The NE era has summarized the current situation of solid state batteries on the vehicle. Generally speaking, both at home and abroad, it has been clear that the first application of solid and liquid hybrid batteries on the vehicle is the battery factory. This year or next year, the battery factory will supply samples for the vehicle enterprises, carry out loading tests, and carry out small batch manufacturing, so as to ensure that the vehicle enterprises with the intention of loading applications can launch new vehicles according to the time plan. All solid-state batteries will be applied between 2025 and 2030.
