Empirically, we study the new energy vehicle battery (NEVB) industry in China since the early 2000s. In the case of China's NEVB industry, an increasingly strong and complicated coevolutionary relationship between the focal TIS and relevant policies at different levels of abstraction can be observed.
On December 19, 2016, the State Council released the “13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of National Strategic Emerging Industries”, in which the NEV industry was included in the development plan for strategic emerging industries . It shows that batteries, as the power source of NEVs, will be increasingly important.
As the largest developing country, China has been adhering to the spirit of “pursuit of excellence” and has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in science and technology innovation, and the NEV battery industry is just one of the projects. The Chinese government has introduced support policies to develop this industry successively.
Due to the very generous subsidy scheme, many of the Chinese car and battery manufacturers increasingly shifted their focus to meeting the subsidy criteria required by the policy, instead of concentrating on product and process innovations that would guarantee their market success in the long run (Intermediary 3, Expert 4).
The battery industry is market-driven, and the lack of understanding of the market demand can only cause these small and medium-sized power battery enterprises to suffer a fatal blow and withdraw from the market. At the same time, the existence of these enterprises also disrupts the market order of the entire battery industry .
In the rest of the world, battery demand growth jumped to more than 70% in 2023 compared to 2022, as a result of increasing EV sales. In China, PHEVs accounted for about one-third of total electric car sales in 2023 and 18% of battery demand, up from one-quarter of total sales in 2022 and 17% of sales in 2021.
A new concept for low-cost batteries
MIT engineers designed a battery made from inexpensive, abundant materials, that could provide low-cost backup storage for renewable energy sources. Less expensive than lithium-ion battery technology, the new architecture uses aluminum and sulfur as its two electrode materials with a molten salt electrolyte in between.
