China Investment Fund is expected to acquire Nissan car battery subsidiary

[Global Technology Reporter Wang Huan] According to "Nihon Keizai Shimbun" reported on May 27th, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. and the Chinese investment fund GSR Group entered a final stage of negotiations for the sale of Nissan's on-board battery subsidiary. The total sales are expected to be around 110 billion yen. Nissan plans to switch to external procurement of batteries to reduce costs and increase the price competitiveness of pure electric vehicles (EVs) that are positioned as the key to a new generation of eco-friendly vehicles.

The Automotive Energy Supply (AESC) established in 2007 became the target of this sale. AESC will invest 51% of the daily output, and NEC Group will invest 49% to produce on-vehicle lithium-ion batteries used by Nissan's main pure electric vehicle, LEAF. The global share of car batteries in 2015 was second only to Panasonic, ranking second.

In addition, Nissan appears to be negotiating with GSR Group on Nissan to sell vehicle battery production equipment held in the United States and the United Kingdom. Nissan plans to withdraw production of batteries using existing lithium-ion battery technology. On the other hand, self-developed R&D will be maintained in new generation batteries using new materials.

GSR Group is a fund that specializes in investment in information technology (IT) and environmental protection. It has invested in vehicle-mounted battery companies in the United States and China. The group seems to be hoping to gain design and production experience that AESC has mastered. With the strengthening of environmental regulations, China is expected to expand its vehicle battery supply system in the pure electric vehicle market.
