Guardians of the Charge: Safeguarding the EV Battery Supply Chain by Major OEMs
Major Indian OEMs are taking steps to secure their EV battery supply chains. This is important to ensure a reliable supply of electric vehicle batteries. This presentation provides insight into the growing importance of electric vehicles and the important role batteries play in their operation. This underscores the need for a safe and efficient EV battery supply chain.
This section provides an overview of the current state of the Indian EV market, including trends, penetration, government incentives, and targets for EV adoption. This highlights the rapid growth of the market and the potential for further expansion. Here are some ways OEMs can protect their EV battery supply chain.
Safeguarding the EV Battery Supply Chain
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) demonstrate a strong commitment to providing a reliable supply chain for EV batteries. Easy production and design can help you to stand out from the competition. Despite recent cost reductions in battery prices, an increase is anticipated as a result of a sharp rise in demand. The supply chain will be affected in all aspects by this surge. For all-electric vehicle (EV) models, a standard battery cell design can save manufacturing costs and complexity by making use of economies of scale, which can be aided through internal manufacturing, and many other factors.
India plans to build a national electric vehicle value chain, including battery production, to reduce dependence on imports. Manufacturers use the Battery Pack to verify the mineral sources for their batteries and to verify that their sources meet internationally recognized ethical standards. Most EVs support the Internet of Things, monitor overall performance during use, and provide important data on battery health. OEMs are working with other countries to strengthen their EV battery supply chains. Regulations are complex to increase transparency and ensure ethical electric vehicle supply chain compliance.
Challenges in the battery supply chain
This segment highlights the challenges OEMs face in maintaining a sustainable battery supply chain. This could include the purchase of raw materials such as lithium, cobalt, and nickel, but also the question of how efficient production processes can be guaranteed and quality control maintained.
