As the penetration rate of new energy vehicles continues to increase, the intelligentization of vehicles, and the continuous deepening of connectivity, the market demand for automotive-grade MLCC is expected to continue to increase.
In addition to Taiyo Yuden, Murata, TDK, etc. have all launched high-end automotive MLCC production expansion activities in overseas factories in China, the Philippines, Malaysia and other areas.
The rapid development of China's new energy vehicles, some domestic manufacturers are also actively expanding the high-end MLCC market.
China Ceramics Materials recently stated that its products have begun to increase in new energy vehicles. The production capacity of MLCC powder for vehicle regulations is reflected in the production capacity of 10,000 tons. It is planned to expand to 15,000 tons by the end of next year; Sanhuan Group's The results of the fixed increase have been disclosed. The fundraising will be mainly used for high-capacity series MLCC expansion projects and Shenzhen Sanhuan R&D base construction projects, Zhengxingu, Gaoyi Assets, Hillhouse's Lingren Investment, Guangfa Fund, E Fund, Rich Country Star institutions such as funds have participated in this fixed increase.
