The average utilization rate of Chinese lithium-ion battery factories has dropped below 45% so far in 2024, and China''s battery capacity will surge to nearly four times what the domestic market needs by 2027, according to ANZ. The government work report flagged "overcapacity in some industries" as one of the key challenges facing the Chinese ...
Pan Gongsheng, governor of the People's Bank of China, said March 6 that the central bank will restrict financing supply to industries with overcapacity. But Beijing's vow to reduce overcapacity could curtail investment in the electric vehicle battery industry, ANZ analysts said.
From a global perspective, the production capacity in new energy sector is far from sufficient. In the "Global EV Outlook 2023," the International Energy Agency (IEA) projected that by 2030, the global demand for new energy vehicles will reach 45 million, more than triple the global sales volume in 2023 and 4.5 times that of 2022.
The report highlighted a 30% increase in exports of electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries and photovoltaic products last year. However, these measures are not enough to provide relief to the battery metal market.
China battery makers challenged by overcapacity, weakening demand and falling prices. Photographer: Qilai Shen/Bloomberg (Qilai Shen/Bloomberg) (Bloomberg) -- China battery makers face another tough year, challenged by overcapacity, weakening demand and falling prices, according to BloombergNEF.
The rate of overcapacity is set to peak in 2025 and only gradually decline to an overcapacity ratio of around four-and-a-half times by the end of the decade, and that’s before any new additional projects are announced, the report said.

But interestingly, the U.S.-led West has been enthusiastically hyping China''s so-called "overcapacity" in new energy vehicles (NEVs), lithium-ion batteries and photovoltaic products. Is China''s productive capacity excessive as some Westerners hype or insufficient to meet global demands?
China will need 1,000-1,200 GWh of power battery capacity by 2025, but the industry is already planning for 4,800 GWh of capacity, according to Changan''s chairman. The chairman of one of China''s largest automakers has warned about oversupply in the power battery industry, at a time when the risk is a growing concern.
