Although in July this year, sales of new energy vehicles there has been a downward trend, but its upstream lithium industry is still alive. The day before the TV host, starting point data by lithium research organized the 2016 session of the third Chinese lithium lithium industry summit and the top 100 enterprises for data conference "will show the tip of the iceberg, the huge crowds of people, All seats are occupied.

Reporters at the scene learned that the summit a total of more than 400 of the lithium battery industry chain CEO, experts attended, the industry focused on the future development trend of lithium industry, influence, new GB power battery for lithium ion battery industry and the use of safety topics such as industrial policy, new energy vehicles, electric car batteries are discussed.

The starting point research CEO Li Zhenqiang said in the meeting, from China's lithium battery competition pattern, the industry concentration is far lower than that of foreign countries. In 2015, the top 10 of the global China lithium battery was 44.4% in the market, and only one of the top 10 was not involved in power batteries. Li Zhenqiang predicts that by 2018, the scale of China's lithium ion battery market will reach 96.11GWH, and the composite growth will reach 25% in the next 3 years, while EV will maintain a compound growth of over 40%, while the ESS market will erupt in 2018.

From the view of the field of lithium battery materials, production in domestic enterprises outstanding performance. Li Zhenqiang pointed out that the cathode material market, the first half of 2016 the global output of 102 thousand and 500 tons, 51 thousand tons of Chinese; anode material market, the first half of 2016 the global anode production was 66 thousand and 800 tons, 39 thousand and 600 tons of China; divide the market, the first half of 2016 the global diaphragm production of 790 million square meters, an increase of 20.8%, China diaphragm production of 400 million square meters, an increase of 31.6%.

It is worth mentioning that the lithium industry mergers and acquisitions, expansion of the heat is not reduced. According to Li Zhenqiang, the first half of 2016, there were 30 cases of lithium industry merger cases, in addition, lithium upstream material enterprises are also have expansion.
