Poster: China's power battery sales up 48.9% in first 3 quarters

China's power battery industry maintained robust growth in the first three quarters of the year, with sales surging 48.9 percent year on year to 786 gigawatt-hours (GWh) as the rapid global expansion of new energy vehicles (NEVs) continues to drive demand, an industry conference highlighted on Nov. 12, 2025.

The country's power battery exports exceeded 129 GWh during the period, up 32.7 percent from a year earlier, according to data released at the 2025 World Power Battery Conference, which opened in Yibin City, southwest China's Sichuan Province, on that same day.

Globally, China has further cemented its leading position in the sector. According to a report released by the Equipment Industry Development Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology at the conference, six Chinese firms were ranked among the top 10 global power battery companies in 2024, collectively accounting for 67.1 percent of the global power battery installation volume, up nearly 4 percentage points from the previous year.
