Panasonic will end its cooperation with Tesla on solar cells as Panasonic steps up its efforts to spin off unprofitable businesses, according to the Nikkei News quoted by Reuters on February 26. "both companies believe that solar cell production is no longer possible to increase and it is no longer necessary to continue co-production," the report said. " Panasonic is Tesla's long-time lithium battery partner and used to be the only lithium battery supplier to Tesla Electric vehicle Factory. In 2016, Tesla and Panasonic announced the establishment of a solar cell joint venture, Panasonic borne part of the equipment costs of the Gigafactory 2 plant; in 2017, Tesla Sun.
Panasonic's financial director confirmed today that Panasonic is renovating a battery factory to prepare for 4680 production and will begin trial production of 4680 electric car batteries in April.
According to foreign media reports, Toyota Motor Company and Panasonic Industrial Co., Ltd. set up a new car square battery company (signed a business merger contract and a joint venture contract, and then actively promoted the relevant preparations for the establishment of the joint venture company. According to data, the joint venture between Toyota and Panasonic is called Taixing Energy Solutions Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Taixing Energy). The company will go into operation on April 1, with Toyota holding 51 per cent and Panasonic 49 per cent. It is worth noting that the new company will develop batteries that can be used in any electric vehicle, providing a wide range of batteries not only to Toyota but also to all customers.
Tesla's batteries mainly come from Panasonic, and Tesla has relied on Panasonic to supply battery cores since signing a broad cooperation agreement with Panasonic in 2014. The supply of Panasonic batteries has been one of the main reasons for Tesla's failure to increase the speed of mass production. According to some current and former employees of Tesla, Tesla is secretly developing its own batteries to get rid of its current dependence on Panasonic in battery production. Current and former employees of Tesla said that the staff of Tesla's battery research and development team are now focusing on designing and manufacturing advanced lithium-ion batteries, as well as new production equipment and processes.
In the era when new energy vehicles have become a major trend, batteries, as an important part of new energy vehicles, have been valued by various car companies. In order to reduce costs, many car companies have set up joint ventures with battery manufacturers. A few days ago, Prime Planet Energy & Solutions, a new joint venture between Toyota and Panasonic, and Inc announced the expansion of battery production.
In order to further reduce the production cost of domestic models, Tesla has revealed long ago that he will look for industrial chain partners in China, and the battery problem, the most important part of electric vehicles, is the top priority. A few days ago, Tesla announced the fourth quarter results at the same time, and revealed that the Ningde era will become its partner, meaning that the price of domestic Tesla may decline again.
On the evening of February 3, Ningde Times, in response to the disclosure of the relevant cooperation agreement with Tesla (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. in the morning, another risk warning notice was issued, saying that the impact of the cooperation agreement with Tesla on the company's future operating performance is still uncertain.
According to the latest report of market research firm SNE Research, in the first quarter of this year, South Korea's LG chemical power battery market share surpassed Japan's Panasonic and China's Ningde era to become the world's largest supplier of electric vehicle batteries in the first quarter of 2020. According to the data, LG Chemical's market share was 27.1% in the first quarter, and the installed capacity of power batteries in the first quarter was 5.5Gwh, up 120% from 2.5Gwh in the same period last year. The agency pointed out that the increase in LG chemical installation is mainly due to the strength of Tesla's domestic Model 3, Renault ZOE and Audi e-tron.
Recently, an online video of Taiwan media mocking the era of Ningde, a leading domestic battery company, was circulated, saying that Tesla had no choice but to accept it because the mainland could not make ternary lithium batteries and could only build the old batteries of ten years ago.
Today, Toyota announced a joint venture with Panasonic to form a new battery company and signed a business merger contract and a joint venture contract to supply batteries to Mazda, Dafa Motor and Subaru in the future. In fact, the joint venture to build a new battery company is not only Toyota, at present, including Tesla, Volkswagen, Daimler and other international giants to participate in the new battery factory plan. On February 3, Toyota Motor Company and Panasonic Industrial Co., Ltd. signed a business merger contract and a joint venture contract for the establishment of a new car square battery company, and then actively promoted the relevant preparations for the establishment of the joint venture company.

Not listed in the catalogue means that new energy vehicles that use these corporate battery products cannot enjoy high subsidies from national and local governments. After the release of the list, the Ningde era became the biggest beneficiary of the policy. The batteries of SAIC, Guangzhou Automobile, BMW, Dongfeng, Volkswagen, BAIC, Geely, Changan and Honda all came from Ningde era until 2018.
Since Tesla announced the news of the cooperation plan with the Ningde era, the specific progress of the two has become an issue of concern in the industry.

Tesla said on Wednesday that its solar plant in Buffalo, New York, would become a "manufacturing home" for superchargers and other energy storage products for its electric vehicles, as it aims to meet employment targets related to state subsidies related to the plant. The company disclosed the move in an annual report to New York, which said it had so far exceeded its employment and investment commitments. Tesla reportedly employs 329 workers at the factory, while its partner Panasonic has about 400 employees there. The electric car maker employs more than 300 people in other parts of the state. The company must be on April 3.
According to media sources, six former and current employees of Tesla said Tesla executives had not yet decided where to produce the upcoming cross-border SUV model, Model Y. Tesla still plans to launch the car at the design center in Hawthorne, Calif., on March 14. Two other sources from Tesla's suppliers said Tesla did not contact them about cooperation in the production of Model Y. This shows that Tesla has just begun to plan the production of Model Y. Along with a pickup truck planned to be released later this year, Model Y ensures that the special.
On July 17, according to Toyota official news, Ningde Times New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. and Toyota Motor Co., Ltd. jointly announced the establishment of a partnership. The two sides will begin extensive discussions in the development of new technologies for batteries, as well as battery recycling and other areas. Through this cooperation, the two sides will combine Ningde era's strength in battery development and supply, as well as Toyota's technical strength in electric vehicles and battery research and development, to develop more attractive electric vehicle products and promote the popularity of electric vehicles. It is also the first time Toyota has broken with tradition by purchasing key components from a Chinese manufacturer. Toyota is in a statement.
Foreign media reported that Audi stopped production of its pure electric SUV model e-tron at its Brussels factory in Belgium due to a shortage of spare parts. In response to this report, a spokesman for Audi has confirmed the authenticity of the news, as for how long the suspension of production, when to resume production, the official did not say exactly. As for the reasons for the shutdown, Audi officials did not say, but it said that the suspension of e-tron production had nothing to do with the COVID-19 epidemic in China. According to industry insiders, e-tron stopped production largely because of the limited production capacity of LG chemical power batteries in Poland, resulting in a shortage of power batteries.
Less than a month after the delivery of the Model 3 produced by Tesla in the Shanghai factory, the domestic battery supplier has been confirmed. At the Q4 earnings conference, Tesla revealed that he had reached a cooperation with South Korea's LG Chemical and China's Ningde Times to supply batteries for its Chinese-made electric cars. Tesla also said that the battery supply cooperation with Ningde era will be further revealed in the "Battery Day" in April.
