6 FAQs about [Palau and Chinese Battery Technology]
How much money has China given to China to develop batteries?
The Chinese government has provided 6 billion yuan (nearly $830 million) to Chinese companies including CATL and BYD to research and develop the next generation of solid-state batteries in China.
Does China Export EV batteries?
From 2020 to 2023, China’s global EV exports increased by 851 percent, with the largest share of those exports (nearly 40 percent) going to Europe. Collectively, Chinese EV and EV battery enterprises have at least equaled—and in some cases surpassed—their Western peers in innovation capacity and product quality.
Why are China's EV battery makers able to innovate so quickly?
It should be noted that, broadly, one reason China’s EV battery makers (and thus EV car makers) have been able to innovate so rapidly and cost-effectively in this space pertains largely to the country’s dominance over the middle and lower segments of the EV battery supply chain.
Will China add battery cathode technology to controlled exports?
China also wants to add battery cathode technology to its list of controlled exports, according to a notice published Thursday by the Commerce Ministry soliciting public comment, on top of the proposed restrictions on technology related to producing lithium and gallium.
What if China approves new EV batteries?
If approved, as is likely, the new additions are expected to form a future round of export controls imposed by China on a slew of critical materials and the technology needed to produce them, which are crucial to manufacturing semiconductors and EV batteries.
Does China control EV battery supply chains?
As noted, China dominates supply chains for the mining and refining of minerals and rare earths, giving its EV battery makers a cost and first-mover advantage. The United States must lead an alliance of like-minded nations to build alternative EV battery input supply chains outside of Chinese control.
