How this measure is built

Definition
Total energy capacity of batteries deployed in electric vehicles in the region during the year, in gigawatt-hours.
Measure
One slice of Battery demand ( form: level, segment: electric vehicle ) . Total demand for batteries. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
Limitations
1 figure is a projection, drawn dashed and labelled in the table. Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
Verification
Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its source evidence before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
