SHANGHAI, Aug 11 (SMM) - Power battery output totalled 41.3 GWh in June, up 171% on the year and 16% on the month. In June, with the improvement of the pandemic situation in SMM, automobile and battery enterprises resumed their production, pushing up the battery cell output. Output of ternary batteries in June was 18.3 Gwh, up 12% month-on-month and 149% year-on-year. Output of LFP batteries stood at 22.9 Gwh, up 19% MoM and 195% YoY. On the whole, the output of ternary batteries again hit a historical high, while that of LFP grew relatively stably, and the output of batteries is expected to rise in the future.

The total installed capacity in June was 27 GWh, up 46% month-on-month and 147% year-on-year. In June, production and sales of terminal markets returned to normal, pushing up the installed capacity of power batteries. SMM data showed that the installed capacity of ternary batteries reached 11.6 Gwh, an increase of 39% MoM and 95% YoY, and that of LFP batteries was 15.4 Gwh, up 51% MoM and 201% YoY.

Gulf disruption squeezes Indonesia nickel makers' sulphur supply

Due to the conflict in the Middle East, shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has been disrupted, raising the risk of tighter global sulphur supplies. Indonesia relies on the Middle East for around 75% of its sulphur imports, and sulphur is a key raw material for producing sulphuric acid, which is essential for leaching metals in nickel and copper processing. Analysts note that sulphur inventories at Indonesia’s HPAL nickel plants typically cover only one to two months of consumption. If transport disruptions persist, some plants may be forced to cut production as early as next month. Overall, if shipping disruptions in the Middle East continue for more than a few weeks, production and demand for related metals may need to slow.
