Recently, Toyota, Nissan Motor Co. and Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. and other related businesses will work together to develop a unified specification of the new generation of automotive lithium batteries, and plans to mass production around 2010. Japanese companies also strive to safety standards and their ways of charging access to International Organization for Standardization (ISO) certification, with a view to grab opportunities in this field.
According to the Nihon Keizai Shimbun reported that Japan will be the Japanese economy, Trade and Industry as the center of the external groups to develop programs, Japan, Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Suzuki, Mitsubishi, Mazda, Fuji Heavy Industries, Daihatsu, Yamaha, nine automobiles, motorcycles manufacturing enterprises and Sanyo Electric, Hitachi, Ltd., Matsushita Battery Industrial, pasona energy, GSYUASA companies, hp 371785-001 battery manufacturers, along with Tokyo Electric Power Co., Japan Automobile Research Institute, Economic, Trade and Industry, Infrastructure and Transport Ministry and other units will participate in a pilot to develop uniform specifications and safety standards for lithium batteries. Meanwhile, the charging method will also be standardized.
At present, the Japanese companies in the production of large-capacity lithium batteries is still fighting each state. Mitsubishi Motors and Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. of their respective carrying lithium batteries for electric vehicles will be on sale after the summer of 2009; Honda Motor Co., fuel cell powered vehicles is expected to start during the year lease sale; Toyota and Nissan Motor plans to before and after 2010 Launch a rechargeable lithium hp 372772-001 battery hybrid and electric vehicles. Overseas, Sanyo Electric and Volkswagen also plan to jointly develop lithium batteries. In the lithium battery safety performance testing, etc., all parties implement their own safety standards.
Fragmentation caused by a new generation of lithium-battery development costs are high, charging facilities can not be unified, and difficult to get consumer confidence is also competitive in the international arena. Japanese companies realized that as soon as possible a unified specifications and safety standards for lithium hp 398876-001 battery imminent. In Japan, METI a high degree of credibility of the external organizations, so the new lithium battery safety standards and specifications are expected to be consumer confidence. Japan’s domestic enterprises will actively develop and produce lithium batteries and a new generation of hybrid and electric cars, to improve global competitiveness. Good environmental performance automotive products will also be more widespread.
According to Japan Automobile Research Institute is expected, according to the popularity of hybrids is now estimated that by 2020, hybrid car in Japan will reach about 360 million. If the high-performance lithium battery for more promotion, usage is likely to further reach 7.2 million level. Media critics said that if Japan can be a new generation of automotive lithium hp 417066-001 battery to obtain ISO certification opportunities to master the initiative, and the enterprises will benefit immensely.
The core technology is the electric vehicle battery power. Electric Vehicle Industry urgent need the support of high-power power battery, lithium hp 346970-001 battery power to develop standards for industrial development will be effective norms and guidance. Automotive companies want to occupy the field of electric vehicles in the global market, we must first obtain ISO certification, Japanese companies out of their blind competition pattern, look at the world is, indeed, a long-term strategic vision.
