The top eight battery factories in China—CATL, BYD, Guoxuan High-Tech, Lishen Battery, CALB, BAK Battery, Wanxiang Group, and OptimumNano Energy—represent a remarkable mix of scale, innovation, and strategic positioning that has enabled China to stay ahead of the curve in the battery industry.
The landscape of the lithium battery industry in China has seen a dynamic transformation, evolving into a critical component of the global energy transition towards electric mobility and renewable storage solutions.
According to Aditya Lolla, China’s battery manufacturing capacity in 2022 was 0.9 terawatt-hours, which is roughly 77% of the global share. Lolla is the Asia programme lead for Ember, a UK-based energy think-tank. Although the term “new three” is relatively fresh, the surge of the trio – all key to decarbonisation – has been a long time coming.
Using the data and projections behind BloombergNEF’s lithium-ion supply chain rankings, this infographic visualizes battery manufacturing capacity by country in 2022 and 2027p, highlighting the extent of China’s battery dominance. In 2022, China had more battery production capacity than the rest of the world combined.
China, with its unprecedented focus on sustainable development and digital transformation, has heavily invested in battery production. As a result, it has quickly become the world’s largest manufacturer and consumer of rechargeable batteries, powered by a robust network of factories that cater to both domestic and international demand.
Regardless of the growth in North America and Europe, China’s dominance is unmatched. Battery manufacturing is just one piece of the puzzle, albeit a major one. Most of the parts and metals that make up a battery —like battery-grade lithium, electrolytes, separators, cathodes, and anodes—are primarily made in China.
