Affected by changes in supply and demand, lithium battery prices also change in response to market conditions. Timely grasp of lithium battery price fluctuations, you can avoid the pressure of production costs of enterprises brought about by the rise in lithium battery prices, grasp the benefits of the low price of the lithium battery market, saving costs for enterprises and creating greater profitability.
The impact of lithium-ion battery prices
Lithium batteries are divided into lithium metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries, the former is similar to ordinary dry cell batteries on the market, belong to the single-use battery, used up, while the latter is a rechargeable battery, the power used up can continue to charge. These two types of lithium batteries are used for different purposes, so the price is not the same.
The price of lithium battery is mainly composed of three major components: the cell, protection plate, shell, and the size of the power consumption and current of the appliance, the material of the connection piece between the cells (conventional nickel, molding nickel, copper-nickel composite, cross-connector, etc.) selection will affect the cost, different connectors may also have a greater impact on the cost, there are different PACK process will also affect the cost.
Ternary lithium battery to Panasonic's NCA21700, for example, its electric capacity of 17Wh, weight 0.068kg, energy density 250Wh / Kg nickel price of 100,000 yuan / ton, on which the nickel content of 50%, then the nickel raw material cost of 3.4 yuan, then the cost of nickel raw materials alone is 0.2 yuan / Wh, the terminal selling price of 1.3 yuan / Wh, a huge difference.
Lithium battery prices are high and low, the quality of course, there are up and down, the battery cell selection has a great impact on its price, the production of lithium batteries commonly used in the cell lithium manganate, lithium iron phosphate, lithium titanate, lithium nickel cobalt manganate and so on. Cell selection is a very important part of the production of lithium batteries, different system materials of the cell, affecting the safety factor, voltage platform, service life, specific energy and working temperature of the battery. So the better the material, the higher the quality of the lithium battery made by the core, the higher the price of lithium batteries.
Lithium battery recycling price
From the recent trend, the recycling price of waste batteries after many days of continuous decline, finally in the past two days with the rebound of lead prices began to pick up, recycling prices back to the line of 10000 yuan / ton. However, in a bullish situation, there are recyclers who are constantly depressing the recycling price.
At present, the bullish price of waste batteries, it is recommended to seize this rare opportunity, as long as the recycling price is appropriate to seize the hand, many dealers currently 48/12 waste batteries out of the price of 166 yuan, for your reference only.
It is presumed that in 2016, China's power battery scrap accumulated about 20,000 - 40,000 tons, to around 2020, China's pure electric passenger cars and hybrid passenger cars only the cumulative amount of battery scrap, will exceed 150,000 tons, reaching about 170,000 tons of scale, it is clear that the recycling of waste lithium batteries has a broad market. Optimistically estimated, the global power lithium battery recycling market size is 4.140 billion yuan, 8.209 billion yuan and 13.102 billion yuan in 2018-2020, with year-on-year growth rates of 474.11%, 98.29% and 59.61%, respectively, and a CAGR of 78% from 2018 to 2020.
The price of the specific lithium battery on the market depends on the actual situation, after all, there are many factors that affect the price of lithium batteries, while the technical difficulty of the product, the amount of procurement, the requirements of the defective rate, the price of lithium batteries will vary greatly. It is recommended that you choose a more cost-effective purchase, "shop around", not only look at the price of the product also look at the quality of various aspects to do a number of things, so that you can buy high-quality lithium batteries.
