The explosive growth of the EV battery market means that a huge number of batteries will become unusable within the next 10 years. Tackling the challenge of recycling lithium-ion batteries is critical, both for environmental and economic reasons, and also for reorganizing the global supply chain to become more stable and sustainable. The government sector also is strongly pushing to promote effective battery recycling.
Patent trends in battery recycling technology are an important predictor of future market trends. Our internal patent landscape analysis suggests that Chinese companies currently have a huge lead in patents, but U.S. and European companies are rapidly shrinking the gap, while Korean companies are relative latecomers but are actively seeking to become major players as well.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Current status and forecast of Battery Recycling business
• IP landscape analysis in battery recycling field (focusing on Korean companies)

Electric Vehicle and Hybrid Sales and Market Prospects Through 2020 – It’s Not What “They” Say
Some industry observers have proclaimed that the electric vehicle market in the U.S. is failing. While overall sales have declined somewhat in recent months, this view is simplistic and short-sighted. A number of key products are at the end of their life cycle, with new versions on the way, and a variety of all-new products are coming. Strength in trucks and crossovers currently works against sales of these vehicles, but that will also change going forward.
The increase in product offerings is led by a number of factors including consumer interest, regulatory requirements and government incentives in the U.S. and elsewhere, technology and cost improvements, and an interest by various automakers in making a corporate statement.
The role of dealers has been a problem that has received little attention. There are methods to address this issue, but they are often not utilized.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Current Issues Affecting Sales
• Product Actions and Sales Forecast by Vehicle Type – Micro Hybrids, Mild Hybrids, Regular Hybrids, Plug In Hybrids, Battery Electrics, and Fuel Cells
• Key Trends by Vehicle Type – Now & Going Forward
• Importance of Regulatory Policy Including California Zero Emission Vehicle Rules and EPA/NHTSA Midterm Review
• Various Automakers Have Very Different Strategies to ElectrificationPresenter
