S&P Global Ratings sees Asian EV battery manufacturers boosting their investments in factories abroad to keep their global lead.
Asia's top battery players have taken a lot of risks to be global leaders in the EV supply chain. They've built up capacity for a market that has not yet fully arrived. To keep their lead, they now need to shift more investments abroad, even with oversupply in some home markets.
By our estimates, utilization at battery factories in China languished at under 50% over the first eight months of 2023. Exports are helping to offset some of the pain, with China's share of the global battery market on the rise. We believe battery makers with stronger export channels and global alliances will outperform in the coming years.
CATL overtook Japan’s Panasonic as the world’s largest battery manufacturer way back in 2017. There was also a “whitelist” that prioritized local suppliers. It prevented foreign battery makers like Panasonic, LG Chem, and Samsung SDI from gaining Chinese subsidies as the country aimed to build out a self-sustaining battery industry.
Asian companies have invested heavily to gain global dominance in electric vehicle (EV) supply chains. To keep their lead, many EV battery suppliers are increasingly investing abroad. Leading players with strong global partnerships will stay on top amid this industry shift. Some weaker ones in China may not survive.
China's battery industry is the most vulnerable to consolidation over the next few years, due to overcapacity. By our estimates, utilization at battery factories in China languished at under 50% over the first eight months of 2023. Exports are helping to offset some of the pain, with China's share of the global battery market on the rise.
