TrendForce’s latest “Quarterly Report on Developments in Global SSB Industry, 2Q26” reveals that the all-solid-state battery (ASSB) sector has reached an important stage of engineering validation in 2026. Companies including Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and Samsung SDI are slightly ahead in small-scale ASSB pilot production. Moreover, Japanese suppliers have already verified key automotive-grade performance metrics and are speeding up the assessment of ASSB modules for vehicle use.
TrendForce's latest “2Q26 Global Solid-State Battery Industry Development Quarterly Report” reveals that the Japanese government has significantly expanded support for next-generation battery technologies in recent years.
The global solid-state battery (SSB) sector recorded over 57 financing deals between 2025 and 1Q26, with 46 companies securing new funding, according to TrendForce’s latest “Global Solid-State Battery Industry Development Report (1Q26)”. Total disclosed financing exceeded US$1.3 billion (approximately CNY 9.7 billion), with technology development primarily focused on sulfide-based and polymer/oxide composite electrolytes.
TrendForce’s latest research on the lithium battery industry reveals that surging raw material prices in 1Q26 supported an upward trend in EV battery pricing through March, with average cell prices rising by 1–3% MoM. Among key products, pouch-type ternary cells increased to CNY 0.59/Wh, while square ternary and LFP cells reached CNY 0.58/Wh and CNY 0.38/Wh, respectively.
The demand for solid-state batteries driven by humanoid robots is expected to hit 74 GWh by 2035, which is over 1,000 times higher than in 2026 Most humanoid robots today have a runtime of 2 to 4 hours; increasing their operating time depends on hot-swappable batteries or higher-energy-density batteries (e.g., solid-state batteries)
