South Korea’s Samsung SDI has set up a pilot line for solid-state batteries and is also eyeing mass-production in 2027. China’s CATL is similarly aiming to commercialise its solid-state battery in 2027, but only for small-scale production, the company’s chief scientist, Wu Kai, said at an industry forum in April.
The Japanese automaker, which is working on the technology through a joint venture with Panasonic, plans to mass produce the cells as early as 2027. South Korea’s Samsung SDI has set up a pilot line for solid-state batteries and is also eyeing mass-production in 2027.
Japan, which has dedicated its national efforts to developing solid-state batteries since 2018, is currently the country with the highest number of related patent applications. Toyota also set a target last June for commercializing such batteries as early as 2027.
Currently, technologically advanced countries, including China, Japan and South Korea, are betting big on solid-state battery technology, which could give them a lead in the next round of global competition in the EV segment of the automotive industry.
Lithium technologies are expected to advance quickly over the next few years. However, companies in China and beyond are frantically pursuing alternative batteries not centred around lithium, in part because the minerals needed to make the current options come from just a few countries.
Currently, Japan and South Korea mainly select sulfide as the primary technical route. In light of the development progress of ASSB in major regions globally, Japan is an early starter in R&D, which takes a lead in the application of patents, and accumulates the most solid-state battery patented technologies worldwide.
