LG New Energy said the project with Indonesia aims to establish an "end-to-end value chain" for electric vehicle batteries, including sourcing raw materials, producing key battery components (precursors and cathode materials, etc.
) and manufacturing power batteries
.
The company hopes that through this project, it can ensure a stable supply of battery raw materials, thereby improving the competitiveness and profitability of its battery business

This is not the first time that LG New Energy has deployed in Indonesia.
As early as last July, LG New Energy and Hyundai Motor announced that the two sides will establish a battery joint venture in Indonesia
.
It is reported that the joint venture battery company is expected to be put into operation in 2024, with an initial planned annual production capacity of 10GWh, but the two companies agreed to increase the annual battery capacity of the factory to 30GWh in the future based on demand

On the morning of April 15, Ningde Times announced that in order to ensure the supply of key upstream resources and raw materials, the company plans to have its holding subsidiary Prokin Times and its partners, ANTAM, a state-owned mining company in Indonesia, and IBI, an Indonesian state-owned battery production investment company, in Indonesia.
The FHT Industrial Park in East Halmahera County, North Maluku Province and other related industrial parks in Indonesia jointly invest in the construction of the power battery industry chain project.
The total investment amount that has been determined for the project so far does not exceed US$5.

So, what are the reasons for these two battery manufacturers to choose to invest in new projects in Indonesia? The answer is to lock the production capacity of key raw materials for power batteries, especially "nickel"

It is understood that nickel is a key battery material.
Some institutions have pointed out that by 2040, more than 30% of the global nickel resources will be used for power lithium batteries
.
Sumitomo Metal Mining predicts that global demand for nickel for batteries is expected to grow by more than 20% this year, and is expected to climb from nearly 330,000 tons in 2021 to more than 410,000 tons in 2022

Indonesia is not only the country with the most abundant nickel resources in the world, but also the world's largest nickel producer
.
Statistics show that Indonesia has rich reserves of nickel resources, and its laterite nickel ore reserves account for more than 10% of the world's total.
In 2021, nickel production will account for 37% of the world's total production
.
It was previously reported that the country hopes to become the world's largest producer of lithium batteries and even electric vehicles, relying on huge reserves of nickel ore

It is worth noting that the imbalance between supply and demand has caused a sharp rise in raw materials
.
According to reports, Shanghai nickel rose by 5% today, and the price has exceeded the 240,000 mark; it has risen for six consecutive days, with a cumulative increase of more than 18%

At the same time, the spot price continued to rise.
On April 18, Jinchuan Group raised the ex-factory price of electrolytic nickel by 3,000 yuan/ton.
After the adjustment, the ex-factory price of electrolytic nickel (large plate) in Shanghai was 238,000 yuan/ton.
