There have been many rumors over the past year that BYD (OTCMKTS: BYDDY, HKG: 1211) will supply batteries to Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), but they have not been confirmed until today.
BYD will soon supply batteries to Tesla, said Lian Yubo, the company's executive vice president and president of its automotive engineering research institute, in an interview with Kui Yingchun, host of state-owned media CGTN, according to a video of the interview released today.
BYD installed 4.27 GWh of power batteries in China in April, ranking second with a 32.2 percent market share, according to data released by the China Automotive Battery Innovation Alliance (CABIA) early last month. CATL remained in first place with 5.08 GWh installed in April and a 38.3 percent market share.
