On August 22nd, the National Development and Reform Commission and other ten departments issued a notice officially releasing the "Implementation Plan for Green and Low-Carbon Advanced Technology Demonstration Projects" (referred to as the "Implementation Plan").

On August 22nd, the National Development and Reform Commission and other ten departments issued a notice officially releasing the "Implementation Plan for Green and Low-Carbon Advanced Technology Demonstration Projects" (referred to as the "Implementation Plan"). The Implementation Plan sets out the work objectives for green and low-carbon advanced technology demonstration projects in two stages, namely 2025 and 2030. Energy storage is listed as one of the key areas in the document, promoting "new energy + energy storage," new types of energy storage, pumped-hydro storage, integrated generation-transmission-load storage systems, and demonstrations of complementary and integrated multiple energy sources. It also emphasizes long-term, high-precision renewable energy power forecasting, virtual power plants, interactions between new energy vehicles and the power grid, and demonstrations of flexible DC power transmission, among others. SMM believes that China's new energy storage industry has entered a rapid development stage. The Implementation Plan also highlights the practical application of new energy storage in multiple scenarios, reflecting the market-oriented approach to innovation in the new energy storage industry. With the continuous promotion of the "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality" targets, energy storage, as an important component, will continue to experience a prosperous industry outlook.

Data Source Statement: Except for publicly available information, all other data are processed by SMM based on publicly available information, market communication, and relying on SMM‘s internal database model. They are for reference only and do not constitute decision-making recommendations.

[SMM Analysis] Restructuring of Lithium Carbonate Supply-Demand Pattern: Industry Chain Shifts Under Policy Dividends and Resource Constraints
When we shifted our perspective away from price fluctuations, we found that the lithium carbonate market in Q1 2026 was undergoing deeper structural changes. These changes were reflected not only in price changes, but also in policy-driven dynamics on the demand side, geopolitical constraints on the supply side, and the quiet transformation of lithium carbonate's role within the entire new energy industry chain.

In Q1 2026, China's lithium carbonate market entered a phase of fluctuating at highs, building on the strong rally at the 2025 year-end. Prices exhibited a typical "N-shaped" wide-ranging trajectory: a significant rise in January, a slight pullback in February, and another sharp rise in March. Behind this trajectory was a concentrated manifestation of the ongoing tug-of-war between upstream spot order holders holding back from selling and downstream buyers restocking on dips.
