China Expected to Achieve 50% NEV Penetration Rate a Decade Ahead of Schedule
Miao Wei, former minister of industry and information technology, said "China's new energy vehicle development has entered a brand-new stage of comprehensive market (expand), which will drive the NEV penetration rate (占有率) (reach) 50 percent as early as
2025. " In 2020, China set (it) goal that NEVs will become mainstream and account for more than 50 percent of the total ·auto sales by 2035.
Miao (add) that the battery, which is at the heart of NEV, has also made great progress and gained a lead (globe), and highlighted the necessity of commercializing all-solid-state (全固态) batteries for China. The all-solid-state battery is widely accepted as a (promise) solution to address the limitations of (tradition) lithium-ion batteries of NEVs. Miao made the comments on Monday during the founding conference of China All-Solid-State Battery Collaborative Innovation Platform.
At the conference, Ouyang Minggao, an initiator of the platform and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, expected that all-solid-state batteries are a key battleground for next-generation battery technology, are expected to be industrialized by
2030. " China has gained a global lead in lithium-ion battery, the country still has a long way to go in the commercialization of all-solid-state batteries, " Ouyang said. He appealed more joint efforts to develop such batteries to maintain China's advantage in batteries on the global stage.
