The number of charging piles hits a new high, ternary lithium batteries become the main body

According to the '2018 Auto Industry Economic Operation' released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on January 16, my country's new energy vehicles have developed rapidly, and production has maintained a relatively high growth trend. However, consumers are still a little worried about new energy vehicles. New energy vehicles need to find charging piles for charging. Isn't it troublesome to find charging equipment when charging is needed? How many charging piles are currently in my country? Which type of battery is the most common for new energy vehicles?

In addition to vehicle manufacturing and related parts and components, the focus of the new energy vehicle industry chain is charging services, which are also what consumers are most concerned about. The editor investigated, according to the data released by the China Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Promotion Alliance: throughout 2018, the charging infrastructure increased by 331,000 units. In 2017, the number of charging facilities was 242,000 units, compared with 2018. In 2017, it increased by 36.8%, and the number hit a new high. The new energy incremental vehicle to pile ratio is 3:1, and the number of public charging infrastructure has grown steadily. As of the end of 2018, the cumulative number of charging infrastructure across the country was 777,000 units, a year-on-year growth rate of 74.2%. The number of charging facilities is constantly increasing, and it is expected to increase even more in 2019.

The number of charging devices is increasing. What about batteries? In 2018, the cumulative output of power batteries in my country reached 70.6GWh, of which the cumulative production of ternary lithium batteries was 39.2GWh, accounting for 55.5% of the total output; the output of lithium iron phosphate batteries was 28GWh, accounting for 39.7% of the total output; others Material batteries accounted for 4.8%. The cumulative sales of power batteries in my country reached 62.3GWh, of which the cumulative sales of ternary lithium batteries were 34.5GWh, accounting for 55.4% of the total sales, and the cumulative sales of lithium iron phosphate batteries were 24.4GWh, accounting for 39.1% of the total sales. Both the production and sales volume, the ternary lithium battery is the most. It can be seen that the ternary lithium battery has occupied the main body of the market.

Although new energy vehicles and related industries are developing rapidly, the safety accidents of new energy vehicles from time to time still make consumers worry. Because vehicle fire accidents are frequently exposed, issues related to the safety and recall of new energy vehicles have aroused widespread concern in the society. In this context, the State Administration for Market Supervision and Administration initiated an investigation into the defects of new energy vehicles. In 2018, 7 auto companies including BAIC, BYD, and Zotye implemented 10 recalls. Among them, the majority of recalled vehicles were affected by the investigation. There were 121,400 vehicles, which accounted for 91% of the total number of new energy vehicles investigated in 2018. The main problems of recalled vehicles are the vehicle’s power battery, airbags, brakes, and electrical appliances. Equipment reasons.
