Electric vehicle (EV) power batteries refer to energy storage and supply systems used in pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, range-extended electric vehicles, and electric commercial vehicles. They primarily provide electrical energy to the vehicle's drive motor, on-board high-voltage system, and some auxiliary systems. They enable energy storage, power output, and regenerative braking. Currently, EV batteries are mainly lithium-ion batteries, including lithium iron phosphate batteries and ternary lithium batteries. Some models also use lithium manganese oxide and lithium titanate technologies. EV batteries directly affect the vehicle's range, charging speed, safety performance, lifespan, low-temperature performance, and vehicle cost, making them one of the most critical components of an EV. Global shipments are projected to reach 1495.1 GWh in 2025, with approximately 1,187 GWh installed in vehicles.

The global electric vehicle (EV) battery market is currently experiencing both rapid growth and significant adjustments. The increasing penetration rate of new energy vehicles, driven by pure electric, plug-in hybrid, and range-extended electric vehicles, is fueling demand for battery installations. Battery technology has become a core determinant of vehicle cost, range performance, safety, fast charging experience, and brand competitiveness. As the global automotive industry transitions towards low-carbon, electrified, and intelligent vehicles, the EV battery market not only maintains high growth potential but is also entering a new phase of technological upgrades, price competition, and supply chain restructuring.

From the demand side, passenger vehicles remain the primary application area for EV batteries, while electrification in commercial vehicles, logistics vehicles, buses, heavy trucks, and special-purpose vehicles is also creating new growth. Consumers' demands for longer range, fast charging, low-temperature performance, and safety are continuously increasing, prompting OEMs to accelerate the adoption of high-energy-density, high-cycle-life, high-safety, and low-cost battery solutions. Simultaneously, the improvement of fast-charging infrastructure, exploration of battery swapping models, platform-based vehicle development, and battery standardization trends will further enhance the strategic importance of batteries in vehicle development and the supply chain system.

From a product structure perspective, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and ternary lithium batteries remain the mainstream technologies in the market. LFP batteries, with their advantages in cost, safety, and cycle life, continue to increase their market share in low-to-mid-range vehicles, commercial vehicles, and high-performance vehicles. Ternary lithium batteries, relying on their higher energy density, maintain an important position in applications requiring long driving range, high-end vehicles, and those with significant lightweighting requirements. Square, cylindrical, and pouch batteries coexist, and advancements continue in areas such as blade batteries, short-blade batteries, large cylindrical batteries, high-voltage fast charging, CTP, CTC, semi-solid-state, and solid-state batteries. The focus of industry competition is shifting from simply expanding production capacity to competition based on system efficiency, safety redundancy, manufacturing yield, and total lifecycle cost.

In terms of the industry chain, power batteries for electric vehicles are highly correlated with key materials such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese, iron, phosphorus, graphite, electrolyte, separator, copper foil, and aluminum foil. Fluctuations in raw material prices, resource security, and supply chain security directly affect corporate profitability. Midstream cell, module, battery pack, BMS, thermal management system, and structural component companies are accelerating their platform-based, large-scale, and automated manufacturing layouts, while downstream OEMs are strengthening supply chain control through long-term procurement agreements, joint ventures, self-developed batteries, and vertical integration. Battery recycling, secondary use, and closed-loop materials will also become important competitive directions for cost reduction, carbon reduction, and resource security in the future.

From a regional perspective, China maintains a leading advantage in the global electric vehicle battery market thanks to its complete industrial chain encompassing materials, cells, equipment, and OEMs. Europe and North America are accelerating the construction of domestic battery production capacity to support their local new energy vehicle industries and supply chain security strategies. Japanese and South Korean companies, relying on their technological accumulation, quality management, and international customer support experience, remain highly competitive in the high-end market. India, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, with the rise of the electric vehicle industry, will also become important growth areas for companies' global expansion.

Looking ahead, the global electric vehicle battery market will continue to be driven by the increasing penetration rate of new energy vehicles, policy support, fast charging network construction, vehicle platform upgrades, and advancements in battery technology. However, challenges will also arise from temporary overcapacity, declining prices, technological shifts, stricter safety regulations, changes in international trade policies, and fluctuations in raw material supply. Companies with large-scale manufacturing capabilities, technological iteration capabilities, cost control capabilities, customer certification capabilities, and global supply chain layouts will be in a more advantageous position in future competition.
