电新行业 2026 年度投资策略：新章与更序

Overall Insights - The report emphasizes that the core driver of the electric new industry is "demand," while "price" contributes additional elasticity. The year 2026 marks the beginning of a new demand cycle due to changes in underlying demand drivers [4][7][26]. - Macro-level trends indicate that the direction of renewable energy development remains unchanged, with clear trends in artificial intelligence and embodied intelligence industries [4][7]. - At the mid-level, the focus shifts to high-quality development of renewable energy, with consumption becoming central, and AI expected to drive global electricity demand growth [4][7]. - Micro-level analysis shows that various segments within the electric new industry will benefit to varying degrees [4][7]. Energy Storage - The energy storage sector is positioned as the main line for renewable energy consumption, with North American AI contributing elasticity. The global energy storage installation growth rate is expected to reach 60%-80% by 2026, with the energy storage industry chain benefiting significantly [8]. - The demand for lithium batteries is projected to grow by 30% in 2026, supported by high domestic registration volumes and stable production schedules [8]. - The supply side is expected to maintain a tight balance in the second half of 2026, with recommendations for investments in lithium carbonate and companies like CATL and Putailai [8]. Power Equipment - The power equipment sector is expected to be driven by exports and global economic recovery, with AI development enhancing overseas demand expectations [9]. - Key recommendations include focusing on transformers for export and AI power supply solutions, as domestic companies are likely to capture more global market share [9]. Wind and Solar - The wind power sector is anticipated to experience high demand growth, particularly in offshore and domestic markets. The supply-demand dynamics and product structure are expected to positively impact profitability across different segments [10]. - The solar power sector faces short-term uncertainties but is expected to recover as energy storage installation ratios increase, with a return to reasonable supply-demand levels anticipated by 2027 [10]. New Directions - The humanoid robotics industry is highlighted as a significant future direction, akin to the electric vehicle boom from 2015-2019, with a focus on key suppliers and domestic manufacturers [11]. - Solid-state battery technology is also emphasized, with ongoing developments expected to enhance sustainability and certainty in the sector [11].
