SMM, June 13 / PRNewswire-Asianet /-

Battery Terminal Market:

This week, the CAAC released production and sales of new energy vehicles in May. Among them, the production and sales of new energy vehicles are 112000 and 104000 respectively. It is worth noting that although new energy vehicle sales rose 7.9% in May from a month earlier, they rose only 1.8% from a year earlier, mainly in the passenger car market.

On the battery side, the SMM New Energy Database shows that the installed capacity of power batteries in May was 5.68GWh. Among them, the installed capacity of ternary battery is 3.75GWh, accounting for 66.1%, and the installed capacity of lithium iron phosphate battery is 1.73GWh, accounting for 30.5%.

Upstream raw material price:

Cobalt: foreign media cobalt prices continue to fall, in line with expectations, the third quarter of the domestic consumer market is relatively stable, SMM maintained the previous judgment, it is expected that the future domestic cobalt smelting products for cobalt sulfate water will gradually disappear, foreign prices accelerate closer to home.

Lithium: the price of battery-grade lithium carbonate has dropped by 1, 000 yuan / ton, and the transaction price can reach 74000 yuan / ton for the "quasi-electric carbon" whose main content reaches the battery level standard. At present, the transaction price of mainstream battery-grade lithium carbonate is 7.5-78000 yuan / ton. Industrial grade lithium carbonate prices remain stable for the time being, but the market mentality is bearish. The transaction price of a large number of battery-grade lithium hydroxide (coarse particles) has been less than 85000 yuan / ton, we think there is still room for decline compared with the current offer.
