Where have the new energy batteries gone

Even now, with the plant under new ownership, the focus for the time being at least is on making batteries for energy storage and the defence industry, rather than for EVs. With domestic car production down to its lowest level for 66 years, what can the industry do to adapt and overcome this latest setback?

Why are Nev batteries so expensive?

As a core component of NEVs, the cost of batteries accounts for 40 % of the cost of NEVs and can be as high as 60 % when the supply of raw materials is unstable . The raw materials for NEV batteries are expensive and depend on foreign imports, leading to instability in the supply chain .

How many Nev batteries will be retired by 2025?

By 2025, the number of retired NEV batteries will reach 1.3 million tons . After the recovery of NEV batteries, based on the remaining battery capacity, there are two main treatment methods: resourceful dismantling and gradient utilization.

Why is NEV battery recycling important?

The rapid growth in demand for NEVs is driving the development of the NEV battery recycling chain . Recovering metal resources from a large number of discarded NEV batteries not only protects the environment but is also an effective way to cope with resource shortages and ensure economic benefits [59, 60].

Will China become a major market for battery recycling?

As one of the major NEV markets worldwide, China will also become a large market for battery recycling. According to MEE, it is expected that by 2025, China will decommission more than 730,000 tons of NEV batteries, 70% of which can be applied to cascade utilization, with a market size of more than RMB20bn.

Should new energy vehicles be recycled?

Volume 10, Issue 13, 15 July 2024, e33800 In recent years, new energy vehicles (NEVs) have taken the world by storm. A large number of NEV batteries have been scrapped, and research on NEV battery recycling is important for promoting the sustainable development of NEVs.

Can traction batteries be recycled?

The recycling of batteries becomes an increasing topic amid the boom of China’s new energy vehicle (NEV) industry. The service life of automobile traction batteries is five to eight years, while these batteries cannot continue being used for cars when the energy capacity decays to 70%-80%.
