SMM predicts that with the consumption of their stocks of battery and vehicles, downstream buyers will soon restock in small volumes. Meanwhile, the rebound in lithium salt prices after a long-term decline has improved market confidence, and this will also drive downstream buyers to step up stockpiling.
As such, stronger demand is likely to increase battery production schedules in May. Domestic battery output is expected to stand at 48.6 GWh in May, up 26% month-on-month and 26% year-on-year.
