Zusammenfassung

Stricter regulations on CO₂ and NO_x emissions are driving the accelerated transformation of traditional combustion engine vehicles to electric vehicles. New battery electric vehicle platforms and architectures are creating the basis for the substantial expansion of the product line that is needed. For this reason, virtually all automakers have defined high-voltage battery systems as core competencies and in-house services and are building up appropriate development and production capacities. The needs of OEMs are increasing sharply all along the value creation chain, from product development to process development to production and assembly of battery cells, modules, and packs – at a volume that is also putting pressure on new service providers and suppliers in the EV battery market; the business models and spectrum of the competition are correspondingly diverse.
