Chinese battery companies are collaborating to speed up the development of all-solid-state batteries. They are using artificial intelligence technologies and aim to start small-scale installations by 2027, with plans for mass production by 2030, according to industry experts.
This goal emerged during the second China All-Solid-State Battery Innovation and Development Summit Forum, where major players in the industry—including battery manufacturers, automakers, and scholars—gathered to discuss the future of all-solid-state batteries.
Ouyang Minggao, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, explained that China’s current focus for these batteries is on sulfide-based technology. By combining these with high-nickel ternary positive materials and silicon-carbon negative materials, the goal is to achieve 400 watt-hours per kilogram in energy density and over 1,000 life cycles.
Ouyang, also a professor at Tsinghua University, stated that these developments are expected to enable small-scale installations of all-solid-state batteries by 2027, with mass production coming by 2030. He also emphasized the need for industry-wide collaboration on supply chains and the integration of AI technologies, including large language models, to drive scientific progress in this field.
