Japan will provide subsidies of up to 350 billion yen ($2.44 billion) to 12 development projects for storage batteries – as well as the relevant parts,incest anal sex mom and son video materials, and devices – led by four automakers and Panasonic, as the country looks to build up its own supply chain. Toyota confirmed it will obtain one of the Japanese government’s grants for the development of prismatic batteries, which are rectangular in shape, as well as next-generation solid-state ones, for a combined annual capacity of 9 gigawatt-hours (GWh). Nissan is aiming to have a capacity of 5 GWh each year to make affordable lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries for its small vehicles starting 2028, while Panasonic’s energy unit said it will build new capacity of 20 GWh by 2030 in a collaboration with Subaru. Japan’s battery giant will also produce cylindrical batteries for Mazda, which is seeking additional volume of 6.5 GWh each year by 2030, according to Automotive News. Six out of the top 10 global battery suppliers were Chinese with a combined market share of 65.3% from January to July, according to figures compiled by South Korean renewable energy consultancy SNE Research. That number for Panasonic, the only Japanese maker that was on the list, declined to 4.3% from 7.1% a year earlier. [Automotive News]
