Regarding market share, the power batteries produced by Chinese, South Korean and Japanese enterprises are provided to nearly 95% automobiles in the world, with Chinese batteries taking up a proportion of more than 60%. Concerning technological and industrial development, the U.S. and Japan are the leaders in technology, South Korea is the leader in engineering application, and China is the leader in industry scale.

In the aspect of battery materials, global power batteries for vehicles are mainly LMO batteries and ternary batteries (made from high-nickel NCM and NCA). Except that Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd. provides batteries to various vehicle models of international brands, China lacks powerful enterprises that can participate in international competition. After years of policy support, power batteries for commercial vehicles (buses and special vehicles) in China have achieved stable development and differ little in materials. They will develop toward higher energy density with LFP as the mainstream material. Chinese passenger vehicle manufacturers mainly choose power batteries of domestic brands, especially ternary batteries with high energy density.
