China s solid-state battery energy storage field

Will China invest 6 billion yuan in solid-state batteries?

REUTERS/Tingshu Wang/File Photo Purchase Licensing Rights BEIJING, May 29 (Reuters) - China plans to invest more than 6 billion yuan ($830 million) in a government-led project to develop solid-state batteries with six firms eligible for state funding to work on the next-generation technology, a person with direct knowledge of the matter said.

Should China develop all-solid-state batteries?

"China must develop all-solid-state batteries, but the reason for such efforts should not be to subvert others, but to prevent other countries from subverting us. As long as all-solid-state batteries have a 1 percent market share in the market, the impact on us will be great," he said.

Are Chinese companies ready for a solid-state battery?

Solid-state batteries are sensitive to moisture, so their manufacturers need special equipment to keep humidity away from production lines. While government initiatives should accelerate solid-state battery development, Chinese companies aren’t waiting. Battery makers have already started formulating plans for the next-gen technology.

Can solid-state lithium batteries overcome energy storage hurdles?

Innovation unlocks commercialization potential of solid-state lithium batteries to overcome energy storage hurdles. Representational image of a solid-state battery.

Are solid-state batteries durable?

Durability is the biggest issue with solid-state batteries, however, repeated charging and discharging causes cracks between the battery’s cathodes and anodes and its solid electrolytes also impact its performance. Another hurdle in widescale adoption of solid-state batteries is that mass-producing them is a challenge.

Does tailan new energy have a solid-state battery cell?

Based on its specs, Tailan New Energy states its solid-state battery cell sets industry records in both energy density and storage capacity.
