Lithium-ion battery electric industry outlook

Lithium-ion battery for electric lithium ion batteries required for the major material used between the battery positive and negative conduction electrons, a lithium-ion battery for a high voltage, high specific energy and other benefits of the ensure the development is dependent on the lithium-ion battery development.

The lithium-ion battery with high voltage, is energy-density (light weight), the end of the self-discharge, no memory effect, long cycle life, and without any pollution, since the market is evolving rapidly, progressively to the nickel-hydrogen batteries and replace in notebook computers, mobile phones, video cameras and other mobile electronic terminal dominated by Yano Research Institute survey, the global mobile phones, laptops, digital cameras with lithium ion batteries are lithium-ion batteries account for 49% in total, 36% and 4%.

For the lithium-ion battery market prospects, integrated Yano Economic Research Institute, the United States Frost & Sullivan, IIT, Samsung SDI, etc., after the company’s view that: 1) the future increase in demand for portable devices and recent several tasks can be handled with ordinary consumers, “Small Parts” The market’s expansion, the growth of lithium-ion battery market, promote, it is expected that the future, such as Brazil, Russia, India, China and other emerging markets, mobile phones and laptops more universal, portable product growth will slow, 2) Electrical hardware tools, other consumer electronic products, light electric vehicles and electric vehicles and other new programs have lithium-ion battery in the high growth momentum for the industry and the car’s lithium ion battery market will continue to grow in the next 5-7 years. In general, will lithium ion batteries in 2008 or even 2009 years ago, double-digit overall growth from 2010 to maintain less than 10% as of 2016 lithium ion battery market is expected to export 10 billion dollars to challenge, lithium-ion battery is also great prospects for lithium-ion battery electric industry enormous imagination.

For Nokia, Sony and other companies recalled mobile phones, notebook battery case, industry experts believe that lithium-ion battery is still the best, most secure choice, although many companies in the development of fuel cell lithium-ion battery to replace, but portable Fuel cells are not yet reached commercial standards, and is not 100% safe. The analyst Geoff

Blaber believe that within the next 1-2 years the situation will not change much, but if they do not meet commercial standards, the Zai cell phones and other products in the adoption takes time, so no need to fear that the other cells Jinnian products on Li ion battery replacement.

Meanwhile, the production of lithium-ion battery, especially in the (mainland), Japan, ROK, sales during 2006 of Bilifenbie Zhan Wei Quan Qiu 21%, 58.1% and 16.8%, South Korea Dianzi products come brand Qiangshifazhan Suizhe and China’s strong domestic demand continues to grow, sales of Japanese manufacturers, the ratio of lithium battery will gradually decrease. As the lithium ion battery production in the world with a high concentration in the industry that the domestic lithium-ion battery electric industry must look to the future development of the global lithium-ion battery market.

STMicroelectronics to promote ultra-thin lithium battery technology

Chip maker STMicroelectronics (ST) has announced the next generation of rechargeable batteries and the United States signed a commercial agreement FET developers, the application of market adoption of the new FET's "nano energy" ultra-thin lithium battery technology.

Solid-state physics elastic ultra-thin battery technology is one of the main features, it can be made "flexible" the ultra-thin batteries, only 200 microns thick, the thinnest, the battery can also be made of different shapes and sizes.

In addition, such batteries using solid-state electrolyte lithium phosphorus oxygen and nitrogen, this material was originally developed by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, makes thin-film battery FET output power than the current most advanced button battery 10 times to 20 times.

ST relevant responsible person said, the current advanced a wide range of portable electronic products, have become increasingly demanding on the battery, but the power of performance, life and environmental impacts are behind the development of electronic products, and the gap between the two growing. Previously, the company has been developing micro-batteries and micro fuel cell technology.

China's first large block of two-junction silicon thin film solar cells off the assembly line

From Hebei Science and Technology Department was informed that the first piece of 5.7 square meters large domestic double junction silicon thin film solar cell recently in Langfang City, Austrian photovoltaic company off the assembly line. This solar cell conversion efficiency of 8%, and the production cost greatly reduced.

Crystalline silicon solar cells can be divided into two major categories of cells and amorphous silicon cells. Compared with crystalline silicon solar cells, including silicon, including amorphous silicon thin film solar cells with low production cost of solar cells, light area, highlight the advantages of low light and good power. PV by the Austrian company has developed a new large double-junction silicon thin film solar cell conversion efficiency of 8%, reaching the international advanced level; while the battery components can be greatly reduced installation costs, thereby reducing system power generation costs and avoid the crystalline silicon production process of high energy consumption, more conducive to saving and environmental protection, applicable to vehicle charging stations, residential roofs, building walls and large power plants and other fields, has a broad application space. It is reported that large silicon thin film solar cells into mass production soon.

Batteries and components businesses face a reshuffle

In the solar photovoltaic industry chain, solar cells and modules at the core.

In recent years, a large number of the introduction of foreign advanced equipment in the high-end, in addition to the single crystal silicon, polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon cells and modules and other species, solar photovoltaic cells and modules production is year after year. In 2007, China's solar photovoltaic module production more than 1000MW, has leapt to the world's first production, surpassing Japan, the United States and other countries.

However, as part of the solar energy industry chain downstream components of enterprise in an awkward position: the minimum profit margin, the greatest risk. According to an anonymous corporate vice president of solar energy components, the current net rate of solar PV modules, about 5%. While the international financial crisis, the polysilicon prices began to sharply decline, corporate profits began to rise gradually, but the lower reaches of the solar system, shrinking demand, leading to the decline in production, corporate profits began to fall.

The plight of the other components of its business risk. Industry there is a hidden rule, that is, the quality of solar modules in 20 years to 25 years, but we know that not only used in silicon solar modules, but also used in a variety of chemical materials, the durability of each material period is different, how to ensure that all materials can reach 20 to 25-year shelf life, this is a big problem.

Enterprises relative to the solar modules, solar battery business is the better of the situation points. First, the relative profitability of enterprises of solar cells is higher, it is understood up to 15%. Second, the solar cells is crystalline silicon material, and thus the risk is relatively small. Technical content of the component cells are relatively lower, so the domestic solar cell companies will only basic production of solar cells, and production of components, for improving corporate profits, reduce risk will undoubtedly have a great role in promoting.

The current international financial crisis is only the beginning, 2009 will be the situation is most severe year. We see the face of the international financial crisis, most countries to concentrate on building infrastructure, stimulating domestic demand, the solar PV industry is not too positive. Although the solar photovoltaic industry in recent years has maintained rapid growth, from 2001 to 2007, compound annual growth rate of solar cell production reached 150%, but in 2009 the market will enter a difficult period.

Solar cells and modules businesses how to deal with the current international financial crisis?

One effort to improve solar cell conversion efficiency. We see solar photovoltaic cells and modules of the technology and equipment has been great development and progress, photoelectric conversion efficiency of 10% from the original 12% to 17% to 18%. It is reported that Nanjing has successfully developed a power conversion efficiency up to an average of 17.5% and 19% of SE cells N-type batteries.

Second, extend the industrial chain, reduce business risk and improve profits. The basic business of solar cells are produced components, and gradually began to penetrate the production of crystalline silicon, the most upstream to the penetration of the industrial chain. Suntech is the first production of crystalline silicon solar cells and modules, has now penetrated into high-purity polycrystalline silicon, silicon thin film solar cells and solar photovoltaic power generation systems. Solarfun Power from solar cells and modules is also extended to the silicon material, solar photovoltaic power generation systems in areas such as ultra-day Shanghai began its solar energy industry chain from upstream penetration.

However, because the solar cells and photovoltaic modules to export-oriented, and thus the current penetration of components of the industry than travel industry chain mainly face to the downstream market penetration can not open a temporary problem. But with the national emphasis on energy conservation, the future of China's PV market will open, so many companies have to penetrate to the lower reaches as a technical reserve, ready to go.

With photovoltaic technology continues to mature and the growing problem of energy shortage, the application of photovoltaic technology will have a bright future. Although the international financial crisis to feel the chill of solar photovoltaic companies, but for the entire industry is concerned, but also a reshuffle is conducive to the market gradually moving towards a rational norms. After 2009 the "winter", next year will usher in solar photovoltaic industry might be sunny.

Battery TM

Young members of the public concern about the city popular electric car batteries prices fell by about 100 yuan. This is good news for the general public, but reporters interviewed found that the battery prices down, the public cost of new batteries but still not reduced.

Battery Prices great diving

Recently, the ups and downs in the price of electric vehicles. Reporter visited a number of electric cars Wenhe South sellers. Shanghai Yangzhou branch flying electric car company, Mr. Wu introduced two years ago, the price of an ordinary electric car yuan in 2000, then rose to 2,300, long ago, suddenly dropped to around 2200 yuan. At the same time, the electric car battery even greater range of price changes: from the original 300 yuan to 500 yuan, and now down to 400. The company named a horse in a service station, a young man surnamed Zhang quoted on the service station the price of electric vehicle batteries, very surprised: "half a month ago or 500 yuan, 400 yuan was now." Industry pointed out that the main supplies for the electric car steel, copper and other metal materials. Steel prices is the electric car the direct cause of falling prices. At the same time, the impact of the economic environment, the electric car battery prices also fell sharply.

New battery is not cheap

Electric vehicle battery life is generally about one and a half. Electric car battery prices down, and indeed the public one thing to be happy, however, the public cost of new batteries still no drop.

Electric car sales company promises a set of batteries can be used generally for 2 years or so. However, the battery was dress, and not such a long life. Brands in a service station, a woman came to replace the battery, she said: "The good quality of electric vehicles, with a four-year, but two years than the original battery, the battery life is not new for a year . This is her third time to repair the station, change the batteries a total of three spent nearly 1,000 yuan, the electric car prices are falling, and each time, trade-in, the cost has not decreased. "It is understood that electric car company will generally separate sales and service operations. In the service station business strategy with trade-in installation of new batteries. Electric vehicle battery prices by 100 yuan, however, the old battery recycling prices reduced from more than 150 yuan to 50 yuan. With the collective decline in the price of old and new batteries, the battery trade-in cost is still not changed.

U.S. cobalt prices fell, demand is not strong

Industry sources say the U.S. cobalt prices are falling, and demand, market, consumers are reluctant to purchase. MW quotes show Oct. 23 U.S. high-grade cobalt prices traded down to 31-33.5 U.S. dollars / pound, while a week ago is 33-35 U.S. dollars / pound, and only a small volume of transactions.

Traders also said the single market, regardless of exercise or the actual transaction volume is very small, they think that only the consumer's views on the current economic environment, warming, when the price to stop falling.

Some traders said the long-term customers are delaying orders for next year, a quarter of its order to help cash flow, but no order cancellation. Consumers also said that in addition to current production and procurement must be carried out, he does not know will not have additional procurement needs.

But many industry sources, the current economic environment will lead to production cuts, but will also supply the second half of next year. Cobalt is the last year, the basic balance between supply and demand in the market, but if the project schedule of Katanga Mining, then put into production in 2011 will increase its output of 3 million tons of cobalt. This will bring significant global cobalt market changes. There are claims that many manufacturers even if the cut is on the short-term market impact is very small, mainly consumer confidence in the financial crisis and the effects of cobalt.

Date of copper in the closing comments of waste 10

Today, Shanghai copper limit down all across the board extended the contract, the major 0812 contract closed at 43,890 yuan / ton, down 1830 points, down 4% on turnover of 320 hand positions 76,402, 150 hand to lighten up. Today, with Shanghai copper is mainly in the LME copper fell sharply after the Budie, bleak economic prospects and weak consumer.

The world's major central banks cut interest rates failed to boost market confidence, deteriorating economic data and concerns about the economic outlook makes the sell-off in commodity markets continue to suffer. LME copper fell below $ 5000 days, down 9%, the United States and European banks continue to inject capital made the market more and more serious concerns about the economy intensified.

Day of crude oil continued to significantly decrease of 4% mainly due to falling demand, while the sharp drop in demand for crude oil indicates that the economy into a difficult or even recession, economic experts that the world average annual growth of 1% of annual oil consumption increased by 0.4 Synchronization %. Stronger U.S. dollar also contributed to the trend days days LME copper prices fell.

Shanghai copper Copper & ratio to 8.6 yesterday, so much that the ratio of Shanghai copper Budie not in place. Shanghai copper Copper & soaring water than the positive lead to cross-market arbitrage, which is expected to have 2,000 yuan / ton of arbitrage, which would lead to domestic traders imported copper. LME copper price because of the current relatively low, reportedly are interested in purchasing and storage of copper State Reserve, State Reserve to regulate the market, inventory replenishment, which will boost copper prices to decline or slowdown.

Currently the three major stock exchanges are gradually copper increased, mainly due to sluggish demand caused by economic malaise, Hamburg and other European stock a substantial increase in copper stocks, seen reflected in the European economic downturn.

Domestic spot, the Shanghai stock offer in 41900-42100 yuan / ton, dropped for 4000 yuan / ton, premium 4020-4220 yuan / ton; Yangtze spot price in 42100-42300 yuan / ton, dropped for 4000 yuan / ton, paste Water 3820-4020 yuan / ton.
