Lithium battery copper foil is the abbreviation of lithium ion battery copper foil. Copper raw material is produced by electrolysis and surface treated metal copper foil. The upstream of lithium battery copper foil industrial chain is metal and chemical raw materials including cathode copper and sulfuric acid. The downstream of the industrial chain is lithium-ion battery, and the terminal is the application scenario of lithium-ion battery in consumer electronics, energy storage, electric vehicles and other fields. According to the Institute of lithium battery research (GGII), the shipment of China Shipbuilding Industry Group Power Co.Ltd(600482) battery in 2021 was 220gwh, an increase of 175% compared with 2020. With the high popularity of new energy vehicles, the shipment of power batteries has increased greatly, and the demand for copper foil has also increased.
lithium copper foil accelerates capacity expansion
Under the general trend of capacity expansion of the new energy lithium battery industry chain, the lithium battery copper foil industry has also accelerated the pace of production expansion.
On January 17 this year, Nuode Investment Co.Ltd(600110) announced that the company plans to invest in the construction of Nord's 100000 ton copper foil material new production base in Huangshi Economic Development Zone, Hubei Province.
