On the evening of June 30, Tibet Mining released the "Announcement on the Progress of the Comprehensive Green Development and Utilization of the 10,000 mt Battery-Grade Lithium Carbonate Project at Tibet Zabuye Salt Lake." The announcement disclosed the latest progress of the comprehensive green development and utilization project at Tibet Zabuye Salt Lake. It stated that the 10,000 mt battery-grade lithium carbonate production line in the Tibet Zabuye project officially launched its trial production phase on June 30.

At the same time, the construction of supporting energy facilities is also being accelerated in an orderly manner. The core process of the project adopts the "membrane separation + evaporation crystallization" technology, aiming to efficiently recover valuable resources such as lithium and potassium contained in the Zabuye Salt Lake. According to the project design plan, it is expected to produce 9,600 mt/year of battery-grade lithium carbonate, 2,400 mt/year of industrial-grade lithium carbonate, and by-products including 156,000 mt/year of potassium chloride and 200 mt/year of rubidium-cesium mixed salt, injecting new vitality into the green economic development of Tibet.

[SMM Analysis] In H1, the overflow of global utility-scale energy storage long-term contracts intertwined with the growing pains of production line upgrades. This not only completely shattered the cyclical pattern of "retreat after rapid rise" in the energy storage market, but also directly triggered a structural shortage and a strong price recovery for 314Ah battery cells. Furthermore, driven by the looming cancellation of tax rebates at year-end, an even more intense wave of "export rush" is gaining momentum, potentially pushing the full-year battle between volume and price to its peak.
