Domestic battery profit meager industry will be eliminated in the future?

In September 2015, China's lead-acid battery output was 17985767.99 kVA, down 13.72% year on year. From January to September 2015, the cumulative output of Lead-acid battery in China was 150646332.22 kVA, down 10.47% year on year.




Lead acid battery has been an absolute advantage in chemical power supply since its inception, whether in transportation, communication, power, or in navigation, various economic fields, lead acid battery has played an indispensable important use. However, at present, the domestic battery industry profits are meager, coupled with the arrival of lithium ion battery, lead acid battery consumption has a huge impact, the future development of the industry is grim.




Industry output showed a marked decline




According to the Qianzhan Industry Research Institute "China's lead acid battery industry market prospects and investment strategic planning analysis report" shows that in September 2015, China's lead acid battery output was 17985767.99 kVT-ampere hour, down 13.72% year on year. From January to September 2015, the cumulative output of Lead-acid battery in China was 150646332.22 kVA, down 10.47% year on year.




It can be seen from the data, the domestic lead-acid battery production is a significant decline, as we all know, the consumption of lead-acid battery has a huge impact, the important thing is the replacement of lithium ion battery technology is becoming mature.




Until now, the price of lithium-ion batteries has been more than 4-5 times that of lead-acid batteries, so the substitution is not very strong. But up to now, the price of low-end lithium-ion battery is less than 3 times that of lead-acid battery, but its service life is more than 3 times that of lead-acid battery, and its weight is much lighter than lead-acid battery, so it is more convenient to carry, so the competitiveness has gradually emerged.




The industry faces a tough future




Lead-acid batteries also have advantages. For example, lead-acid battery resource recycling utilization rate is particularly high, lead regeneration rate can be as high as 98%, is incomparable to other products. Second, lead-acid batteries are very safe and can be used normally at a high temperature of 100 degrees. Third, lead-acid batteries are very cheap.




Countries promulgate the notice about the consumption tax on battery coating for mercury-free battery, nickel metal hydride batteries, lithium battery, lithium ion battery, solar battery, fuel power lithium batteries and all vanadium flow batteries shall be exempted from the consumption tax, which amounts to encourage the development of the lead-acid battery electric motors; And this in the long run, the lead industry is bound to bring adverse effects.




Therefore, lead-acid batteries have not withdrawn from the historical stage, but occupy the leading role against the trend, to a certain extent, it is the result of market compromise to technology. In theory, lead-acid batteries are still at their zenith, but it is too early to say whether they will be phased out in the coming years. According to the current development trend, the development of the industry is not optimistic.
