The largest claim within the lawsuits relates to liquid-cooled modular battery systems, with CALB seeking RMB 560 million (€73 million) in damages. In its filing, CALB required that CATL and related entities immediately cease the alleged infringements and pay compensation for economic damages and litigation costs.
Hong Kong-listed Chinese battery manufacturer CALB said on October 18 that it had filed lawsuits in Hubei and Jiangsu provincial courts against CATL and its affiliates, alleging infringement on four battery-related patents. CALB is seeking damages totaling RMB 1.007 billion (€130 million).
Due to alleged patent infringements, the Lithium battery maker Contemporary Amperex Technology Limited (CATL) sued its competitor China Aviation Lithium Battery Co., Ltd (CALB, Chinese: 中创新航) for a compensation of CNY 518 million (USD 77.7 million).
In March 2022, CALB submitted a prospectus to the HKEX, planning to raise USD 1.5 billion from its IPO. In the prospectus, CALB indicated that the patent infringement dispute will not have significant impacts on the company. CALB grew rapidly in 2021 and recorded a revenue of CNY 6.8 billion, up 240% year on year.
Notably, this is CALB’s first time initiating a patent infringement suit against CATL. The allegations cover patents central to battery structure, assembly techniques, battery pack design, cooling systems, and integration technologies, including innovations in battery devices and cooling systems for liquid-cooled modular units.
For corporate power purchase agreements (PPAs), which have become one of the dominant forms of contract in the renewable energy industry, it has so far been difficult to adopt arbitration clauses in a uniform manner in contracts, due to the large numbers of parties involved and the fact that offtakers are frequently state entities.
