SHANGHAI, Sep 14 (SMM) – The rapid growth trend of the global new energy vehicle market, together with the domestic and overseas energy storage market and electric bicycle industry, has driven the new energy industry chain to gradually enter its boom. However, in recent months, the supply and demand of battery materials have been out of balance, and the expansion of raw material companies has been far slower than the growth rate of downstream demand, which drove up prices sharply. How to ensure the supply of raw materials, control the costs, and ensure the competitiveness of the supply chain have become the core focus of battery companies in recent years. 

From September 12 to 17, SMM New Energy Division Director Wang Tian and marketing consultant Yu Lei are leading the SMM staff and members of the delegation to visit raw material enterprises of lithium battery industry in Ningxia and Inner Mongolia, with the purpose of facilitating closer and in-depth cooperation as well as more effective and sustainable communications.
