Recently, various issues have been raised in the automobile battery market, and the starting point is the issue of core minerals through the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the use of recycled raw materials and materials through Europe’s CRMA.
At the same time, battery technology is diversifying, with batteries using various materials such as iron phosphate as well as existing ternary batteries being installed in automobiles, and the development and application of sodium batteries have been reported, and research is actively underway. Additionally, research is being actively conducted on lithium metal batteries, all-solid-state batteries, and lithium sulfur batteries as future technologies that can significantly increase energy density.
We would like to discuss the current issues in batteries, the direction of technological development, and areas to focus on as anticipated by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, as well as response strategies and business directions.
