On December 27, CATL refuted rumors on an interactive platform regarding the "company's plan to cut LFP orders in January 2025." The company stated that the new energy market is currently developing well, with robust demand. It has maintained good interactive cooperation with suppliers to jointly promote industry development. Meanwhile, the company, together with its supplier partners, is advancing technological progress and innovation, sharing the benefits of industry growth.
The lithium battery market is currently in a phase of rapid development, with LFP materials gradually encroaching on the market share of ternary cathode materials. According to SMM production schedule data, the growth rate of LFP materials is expected to surpass that of ternary materials in the future, with annual production likely to exceed 3.6 million mt by 2027, an increase of over 56% compared to 2024 production. As an industry leader, CATL continues to expand its market share, leveraging its high-tech approach, and its overall demand for materials is expected to increase year by year.
