  • The Supply Chain for Electric Vehicle Batteries
    United States International Trade Commission Journal of International Commerce and Economics December 2018 The Supply Chain for Electric Vehicle Batteries David Coffin and Jeff Horowitz Abstract Electric vehicles (EVs) are a growing part of the passenger vehicle industry due to improved technology, customer interest in reducing carbon footprints, and policy incentives. EV batteries are the key determinant of both the range and cost of the vehicle. This paper explains the importance of EV batteries, describes the structure of the EV battery supply chain, examines current limitations in trade data for EV batteries, and estimates the value added to EV batteries for EVs sold in the United States. Keywords: motor vehicles, cars, passenger vehicles, electric vehicles, vehicle batteries, lithium- ion batteries, supply chain, value chain. Suggested citation: Coffin, David, and Jeff Horowitz. “The Supply Chain for Electric Vehicle Batteries.” Journal of International Commerce and Economics, December 2018. https://www.usitc.gov/journals.

    STUDY E-Mobility Index Q3 2015 Roland Berger – Automotive Competence Center & Forschungsgesellschaft Kraftfahrwesen mbH Aachen September 2015 E-MOBILITY INDEX Q3 2015 1 Key takeaways from the E-Mobility Index for Q3 2015 > While the competitive situation in respect of industry remains largely unchanged, France has taken the lead in terms of technology. With regard to the market, Japan has dropped from second to fourth place, and growth in the USA has also slowed significantly. France has increased its lead still further, while Germany has moved into third place on the back of strong growth. However, the average market share of xEVs in the seven leading automotive nations is stagnating at below 1%. > The lack of coherent sales concepts is partly responsible for the weak sales figures. OEMs are not doing enough to win customers over to BEVs and PHEVs. Strategies are lacking for creating lasting incentives for dealers to sell low-emission vehicles. > xEVs are still underperforming on key customer criteria, especially range. Besides developing a new generation of cells with higher energy density, considerable savings are possible by reducing the energy consumption of auxiliary electric devices, especially in the area of climate control. 2 Summary comparison of the competitive positions of the world's seven leading automotive nations In terms of technology, France has overtaken Japan and is now in pole position. Behind this improvement lies a shift in the model mix of French OEMs in favor of smaller BEVs that offer good value for money. Japan is losing out by comparison because its OEM product portfolios exhibit only marginal technical development in the medium term.
