Did you know that over 35% of battery-related patent disputes in 2023 involved energy storage systems? As global demand for lithium-ion and solid-state batteries surges, companies face growing risks of intellectual property violations. This guide explores practical solutions to avoid legal pitfalls while maintaining competitive innovation.

Why Energy Storage Battery Infringement Matters Now

The renewable energy sector witnessed a 200% increase in infringement lawsuits between 2020-2023. With EK SOLAR's clients reporting 12% shipment delays due to compliance checks last year, understanding these risks becomes critical for manufacturers and importers alike.

Common Types of Infringement

• Patent Violations: Copying cell architecture or electrolyte formulas
• Trademark Issues: Replicating branded battery casing designs
• Certification Fraud: Falsifying UL/IEC safety test reports

"A single infringement case can cost $2.8M in legal fees – equivalent to 18% of annual R&D budgets for mid-sized manufacturers." – International Battery Association Report, 2024
