Are lithium-ion batteries a good investment?
On one hand, lithium-ion (li-ion) batteries, including those made in China, the world’s largest li-ion manufacturer, are useful for decarbonizing the US grid, improving the economics of solar deployment, and providing a key input for electric vehicles.
Why did China's Lithium battery imports decline?
Possibly driven by this and other factors (e.g., increased costs associated with compliance)14, may have contributed to a 44 per cent decline in import values of lithium batteries from mainland China (down from USD 2.23 billion in 2017 to USD 1.27 billion in 2023).
Why did China export power batteries in 2023?
In 2023, China's exports of power batteries reached USD 65 billion, reflecting a 27.8 per cent rise compared to 2022 (USD 50.9 billion). This surge is fuelled by China's robust manufacturing capabilities and its crucial role in meeting the growing global demand for electric vehicles and energy storage solutions.
How much Li-ion battery does the US import from China?
According to the US Census Bureau, in 2023, the United States directly imported $13.1 billion in lithium-ion batteries from China, accounting for 70 percent all US li-ion battery imports in 2023, as measured in value. US li-ion imports are split between storage and batteries for electric vehicles.
Which country imports Chinese lithium batteries in 2024?
The US is the main importer of Chinese lithium batteries, though this may change in 2024 due to new policies. Exports of (pure) electric vehicles surged to 1,545,832 units, marking a 64 per cent increase from 941,922 units in 2022. This amounted to USD 34 billion, reflecting a 70 per cent rise compared to USD 20 billion in 2022.
What should policymakers do about China's battery complex?
Because the Chinese battery complex presents decarbonization opportunities, but also security risks for the United States and other constitutional democracies, policymakers should adopt a balanced approach to batteries, working together with allies, friends, and partners to take risk mitigation steps when necessary.
