AI Customer ServiceThe rationale behind the rules was to incentivise investment in domestic battery manufacturing capacity. However, the rules were agreed prior to the emergence of major social and economic developments that had a strong disruptive effect on the EU and UK supply chains and automotive sectors.
As the European EV batteries sector is not sufficiently developed, the parties have agreed to extend the current rules until 2027. In 2022, the United Kingdom (UK) was the EU's second biggest export destination for cars, accounting for 17 % of total exports, halfway between the United States (23 %) and China (15 %).
The majority of battery demand for EVs today can be met with domestic or regional production in China, Europe and the United States. However, the share of imports remains relatively large in Europe and the United States, meeting more than 20% and more than 30% of EV battery demand, respectively.
Envisioning a global competitive advantage in sustainable battery design and production by 2030, the UK aims to foster economic prosperity while spearheading innovation in the burgeoning battery innovation ecosystem.
The impending transition towards electric vehicles is expected to drive the demand for batteries substantially in the coming years. Projections estimate that lithium-ion batteries will dominate the rechargeable battery market, particularly in passenger EVs, grid storage, and consumer electronics.
The UK government remains resolute in its commitment to steer the battery sector towards sustainable growth, ensuring resilience and fostering an environment conducive to innovation, investment, and global leadership.
