Overview of the report:
Solid-state battery (SSB), with higher energy density and safety, is a potential next-generation EV battery technology. At present, relevant enterprises in Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea and China are actively layout SSB technology, and continue to make new progress in engineering. In particular, the global leading manufacturers such as Toyota, Nissan and Samsung SDI have begun to enter the pilot production phase, and the commercial application of SSBs is constantly moving forward. TrendForce estimates that with the global production competition, ASSBs are expected to reach GWh level mass production by 2027.

Recent Developments:
- In 2024, Nissan and Honda began the construction of pilot factories of all solid-state batteries (ASSBs). Toyota, at the same time, the development and production plan of ASSBs was certified by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan in September 2024, and plans to start production from 2026. Japans ambition is to realize the formal commercial application of ASSBs by around 2030;
- Samsung SDI has announced the initiation of the pilot line (S-line) for ASSB production in 2022, it has not only completed the construction of pilot line and delivered the first batch of ASSB samples to electric vehicle manufacturers in 2023, but also expanded the supply of SSBs to five potential customers in 2024. Currently, the sample test is under way and is scheduled to achieve mass production in 2027.
- Chinese government has increased R&D funding for ASSBs from 2024 onwards. In 2024, led by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other ministries, China plans to invest around CNY 6 billion to support the R&D of ASSBs. Six companies-CATL, BYD, FAW, SAIC, WELION, and Geely-will receive foundational R&D support from the government for their ASSB projects. The goal is to achieve small-scale vehicle installation (thousands of vehicle units) by 2027. Meanwhile, GAC, SAIC, Chery and other auto manufacturers have publicly announced that they will launch electric models equipped with ASSB versions in 2026.
