Korea Site_2026 New Energy Industry Chain Expo

01: Background

A global surge in Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries is reshaping EV and ESS markets. Major players like Tesla, GM, PowerCo, and Korean battery giants are adopting LFP for its cost and safety advantages.

U.S. tariff adjustments have created massive opportunities for Korean and Japanese firms amid China's restricted access to North America. Yet facing challenges from China's low-cost and technological superiority in the LFP supply chain, this dynamic raises critical questions: How to collaborate yet compete in this new landscape?

Against this backdrop, Shanghai Metals Market (SMM) hosts this Korea conference under its "CLNB Series", uniting Asia's top battery, material, and equipment executives to navigate competitive collaboration in the evolving LFP era.
