In 2017, take a closer look at China's annual list of small lithium battery brands

Battery magazine, Chinese battery network - on September 30th (reports for Beijing)

The news is from the second China International New Energy (Chengdu) Lithium Electricity Industry Peak BBS in 2014 (ABEC2014, lithium electricity "Davos"). According to the organizing committee Chinese battery, CCID consulting institutions jointly launched a small lithium battery of 2014 China annual list of top brands on 28th. The list bases on capacity of small lithium battery enterprises in our country, customers, the company situation and image of integrity. Data sources are the company research and institutions (data statistics stop by September 2014, only for reference).Listed companies were interviewed by CCID lithium electricity industry expert review team.

1, Dongguan new energy (ATL)

Company name: Dongguan new energy technology co., LTD

Enterprise rank: no.

Focus on index: u u u u do

ATL small batteries in 2013 sales revenue reached 7.88 billion yuan, up 11.4% from 2012.

Expert review: although is a Japanese-owned holding company, but the ATL management and technical team has been completely domestic zed. In fact, no matter from the beginning and rapid development, in addition to the introduction of Japanese management system, ATL is completely dependent on the rise of China's own technology and industrialization plan. ATL is small polymer battery technology level of the highest domestic enterprises, the success of the ATL technology system is not rely on one person or several people, relying instead on a system, although it is China's large-scale lithium electricity enterprise is always a soldier of the camp of the iron water, constantly sending personnel to lithium battery industry in China, but the technology status of ATL has always not been shaken. ATL is the most important strategic moves into the apple industry chain, with the polymer battery technical strength and excellent quality control ability, ATL along with the rise of apple industrial empire, finally grow into the nation's largest lithium battery production enterprises. But apple a oriented strategy also has hidden dangers, especially apple's performance in the market as a barometer of ATL performance, based on this, ATL is more to the development of the domestic smartphone customers, but the high cost of high quality become the largest obstacle in ATL to enter the domestic market, the reasonable scheme to reduce costs, to form a balanced customer structure become the key point of the development of the ATL small batteries.

Expert review: Lishen as one of the few state-owned holding companies in the field of national small battery, in competition with other TOP5 at a disadvantage, and the mechanism of the system causes the brain drain is serious, a lot of structure bring management costs rise Lishen has been on the verge of a breakeven. On the customer, can be said to be the MOTOROLA made Lishen, and successfully entered the apple industry chain development of Lishen, but in with ATL and Samsung competition, is the low price strategy is generally used to Lishen lead to the lack of profitability. In the field of power tools battery, has the quality problem of the blame to Lishen.
