    Fraun­hofer FFB and the Uni­ver­si­ty of Mün­ster have ana­lyzed China’s dom­i­nance in the bat­tery sup­ply chain in a study. Chi­na con­trols almost the entire val­ue chain of lithi­um-ion bat­ter­ies, from raw mate­r­i­al extrac­tion to pro­duc­tion.

How­ev­er, the scale-up ratio remains low, and domes­tic invest­ments fell sharply. Notable high­lights include strong deeptech growth, but con­cerns about stag­na­tion and com­pet­i­tive abil­i­ty per­sist. The ecosystem’s growth chal­lenges require imme­di­ate atten­tion.
