Until as recently as 2011, the Li-ion battery market was effectively monopolized by Japan and South Korea. However, seeing the high profits and accelerating demand from downstream industries, China has since made an aggressive push to grab a large slice of this lucrative market.
CCM is launching the China Li-ion Battery E-Journal – the most comprehensive, up-to-the-minute English-language resource available on China's Li-ion battery market. Li-ion Battery E-Journal will act as your remote market monitor, giving you all the latest news and analysis on this fast-changing market.

16. The quick development of
China’s alternative energy
vehicle industry cannot
go forward without
government support.
17. Favorable policies of China’s alternative energy vehicle industry
Time Policy Remarks
Jul-14
The Proposal on Purchasing Alternative Energy
Automobiles for Governments and Public
Institutions
/
The Guidance concerning Accelerating
Expansion and Application of Alternative
Energy Automobiles
Three aspects have aroused attention in the
industry: Not draw back the outside
alternative energy automobiles' entering into
the local markets; list charging infrastructure
in urban planning and give related
governmental supports; ease the access to
vehicle production and encourage the inflow
of social capital.

18. Favorable policies of China’s alternative energy vehicle industry
Time Policy Remarks
Oct-14
In order to implement the Guidance issued
by the State Council in late July 2014, all local
governments introduced corresponding
measures to advance the expansion and
application of alternative energy
automobiles based on their local situations
e.g. Fujian Province's the Notice of
Eight Measures to Propel Expansion
and Application of Alternative Energy
Automobiles

19. CCM predicts that during the Thirteenth Five-year Plan (2016–
2020), China will issue more supportive policies.
This indicates that China is determined to develop the
alternative energy vehicle industry.
20. Though China’s Li-ion battery industry is driven by strong
demand from downstream markets, CCM believes that the
industry still lags behind Japan in many aspects, especially
regarding high-end applications such as power Li-ion batteries.
23. China boasts cost advantages in
manufacture of Li-ion battery materials

25. CCM:
As China invests more in key materials, technological obstacles will be overcome.
Based on cost advantages, the prices of related products will decline to become
the cheapest on the global market.
Electrolyte: LiPF6, core raw material, sees fine industrialization.
Cathode & anode materials: Related mineral resources, like lithium,
manganese, ferrum, phosphate and graphite
are abundant.
Separator: The domestication is quickened.
26. Electrolyte
China continues its fast increase in market
share, thanks to cost advantages.
In 2013, global market capacity was about
60,000 tonnes. Of this, the sales volume
of Chinese enterprises reached about
31,000 tonnes. China took the first time to
occupy over 50% of market shares.

29. Lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6 )
The global production capacity of LiPF6
reaches 12,000 t/a.
China realizes commercial production and
breaks Japan’s monopoly.
Now LiPF6 prices are declining due to
overcapacity.
Some small-scale Japanese factories have
stopped production.
31. As the technology matures,
China quickens LiPF6 industrialization.
In the light of cost advantages from
fluorochemical raw materials, some
Chinese LiPF6. enterprises make
noticeable profits.
China is expected to become the
world’s dominant supply base for
LiPF6.
