Additionally, in terms of policy, Japan is committed to battery development through industry–academia–government collaboration under the development strategies of the METI. China’s battery-related policies are led by the government, and recently the Chinese government has attached great importance to the resource recovery of vehicle batteries.
South Korea, however, is itself highly dependent on China for the manufacture of critical minerals and battery components. The implementation of detailed IRA guidelines is an important milestone in assessing South Korea’s role in the Sino-U.S. competition for supremacy in EVs and batteries. The global battery industry is still in its infancy.
On the other hand, although competition between CJK is inevitable, the three countries are still actively seeking cooperation to deepen information sharing and exchange on battery technology development strategies. Private enterprises in Japan and South Korea have a good sense of partnership and have built a win–win relationship.
Finally, in terms of market, the share of vehicle batteries in Japan has become stagnant in recent years, while the shares of China and South Korea are increasing. Considering the recent momentum of South Korea, it is highly possible that South Korea may overtake China and become the world’s top vehicle battery market.
South Korea is the centre of global secondary battery R&D and a leading manufacturing base, but it is still necessary to ensure a stable supply chain and core competencies. The next ten years will be crucial for the development of next-generation secondary batteries, such as all-solid batteries.
The Japanese government hopes to obtain more overseas resources and materials for manufacturing batteries through direct investment, thus reducing the prices of batteries. Chinese and South Korean companies have accelerated the pace of mining battery metals, and Japan will follow suit.
