NEDO, a Japanese government agency, has given long-term and stable support to the research and development of lithium-ion batteries since 1980s, and formulated a roadmap and action plan for the research and development of power batteries, focusing on the research and development of lithium-ion power batteries, modules, standards, evaluation and key raw materials. The specific lithium battery industry plan was issued 20 12, and the Japanese government launched the "battery strategy", pointing out that industrial development should improve the specific energy of batteries to enhance competitiveness; Japan will promote the development of lithium battery industry with fiscal policy from 20 16, and promote the development of high-performance batteries in the form of subsidies in 2020; 202 1 with the establishment of battery supply chain association, Japanese battery technology is expected to usher in a new breakthrough.
Japanese lithium battery capacity ranks third in Asia.
According to the data disclosed in "National Lithium Battery Blueprint 202 1-2030" of the United States, in 2020, the global lithium battery capacity in Japan ranks third in Asia, with a capacity of 30GWh.
Japanese lithium battery patent application activity needs to be improved.
The query results of Wisdom Bud patent platform show that China has the largest proportion of patent applications for lithium battery technology worldwide, followed by South Korea and Japan. The patent application activity of lithium battery in Japan is relatively high at 20 16 and 20 17, which has declined in recent years. Generally speaking, the patent application activity of Japanese lithium batteries needs to be improved.
(Note: the query time is April 2022 1 1, and the query keywords are "lithium battery" and "lithium battery". )
The global market share of leading Japanese lithium battery enterprises has a downward trend.
Japan's lithium battery industry developed earlier and more mature. At present, there are leading enterprises in all industrial chains in the industry. The leading enterprises of cathode materials are Riya Chemical and Sumitomo Metal Mine. The leading companies of anode materials are Mitsubishi Chemical and Hitachi Chemical. The representative enterprises of Diaphragm are Asahi Kasei and Dongli; The representative enterprises of electrolyte include Mitsubishi Chemical and Ube Company. The leading companies in lithium battery manufacturing are Panasonic and PEVE. There are many enterprises in the downstream new energy vehicle factory, including Honda and Toyota.
According to the data disclosed by GGII, the global market share of installed capacity of Japanese leading lithium battery enterprises showed a downward trend in 20021year, from 16. 1% in the first half of 20021year to 12.2% in the whole year of 20021year. Among the top ten companies in the world, Panasonic has always maintained the third position in the world, and the global share of PEVE was replaced by Honeycomb Energy in the second half of 20021. With more and more lithium battery manufacturers entering the global market, the industry competition is becoming more and more fierce.
