[SMM Analysis] This week, ESS battery prices remained stable, with the low-end prices of 280Ah and 314Ah batteries maintaining at 0.275 yuan/Wh.

This week, ESS battery prices remained stable, with the low-end prices of 280Ah and 314Ah batteries holding steady at 0.275 yuan/Wh, which has been the mainstream transaction price range recently. However, as the grid connection deadline of May 31 approaches, the market concentration in the ESS battery manufacturing industry has significantly increased. The capacity utilization rate of leading battery cell manufacturers remains high, leading to slight price increases for some spot orders. However, the subsequent orders for third- and fourth-tier battery cell manufacturers have decreased, and production in April and May may decline MoM from March. Looking ahead, as the grid connection deadline of May 31 approaches and overseas order exports face obstacles, domestic ESS battery cell production may lack strong support. According to SMM's market exchanges, many battery cell manufacturers currently do not see strong demand support, so as demand weakens, ESS battery cell prices may experience a slight decline.
