Recap – Battery Show Europe 2023 – Stuttgart (Germany)
Posted on 2023-05-30
-
At the The Battery Show Europe conference, a key topic was how new battery materials that lower costs and allow for improved energy density / fast charging can be introduced in the context of huge EV battery production volumes.
-
The commitment by EV makers to deploy semi-solid and solid-state battery EVs (free of liquid carbonate electrolytes) based on redefined supply chains is close to unanimous.
-
The success of each of these collaborative upscaling efforts depends substantially on whether the right material suppliers & cell makers find each other (switching costs are not as dominant as in the existing supply chain).
-
Material suppliers should work with enough partners to diversify market launch risk, without losing the ability to adjust their materials to the specific needs of each partner.
