Tenpower Begins Lithium-Ion Cell Production in Malaysia: A Strategic Win for Indian EV and Battery Markets
Strategic Expansion to Southeast Asia
High-Volume Output to Meet Growing Demand
Boosted by Strengthened India-Malaysia Trade Ties
The timing of this production launch is ideal, coinciding with a recently strengthened India-Malaysia Free Trade Agreement (FTA). The updated FTA framework provides Indian companies with multiple benefits:
-
Reduced shipping times
-
Streamlined customs clearance
-
Lowered tariffs and logistics complexity
These improvements not only cut costs but also enhance supply chain efficiency for Indian manufacturers.
A Strategic Advantage for US-Focused Exporters
Beyond the Indian market, Malaysia-sourced cells offer compliance advantages for companies targeting the United States. In light of evolving US trade regulations and battery sourcing rules, sourcing from Malaysia helps Indian battery pack exporters meet U.S. content and origin requirements, positioning them more competitively in North American markets.
A Legacy of Global Excellence
Tenpower has already shipped over 10 billion battery cells worldwide, earning its reputation as a trusted name in lithium-ion technology. With the addition of the Malaysian facility, the company reinforces its commitment to global partnerships, innovation, and localized support for fast-growing EV ecosystems.
Conclusion
Tenpower’s Malaysia production launch is more than an operational milestone—it’s a regional game-changer. For Indian EV and battery pack makers, it brings supply security, regulatory alignment, and new trade advantages. As global EV adoption accelerates, Tenpower’s strategic presence in Southeast Asia is set to play a vital role in powering the future.
