On this very special day, we sat down with Donut Lab CEO Marko Lehtimäki to go deeper on the "I Donut Believe" series — and he decided to share some secrets.

Some of what you'll hear in this interview has never been shared publicly before. Whether you believe it... well, that's up to you.

China's exports of batteries and battery energy storage systems (BESS) have hit a record in 2025, soaring by 24% from the year before over the first nine months of the year.

Germany is the top overall market for China's batteries so far in 2025, with $10.5 billion in sales recorded just through September.

Battery exports to Saudi Arabia - by far the Middle East's largest battery buyer - are up nearly fourfold compared to 2024, while Latin America's top buyer Chile has posted a 320% rise in imports compared to 2024.

Oceania - driven mainly by Australia - and Africa - driven mainly by Nigeria, South Africa, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Egypt - have also posted steep expansions so far in 2025.

Unlike lithium-ion batteries, vanadium flow batteries use electrolyte solutions containing vanadium ions to store and release energy. The technology offers a number of advantages for grid-scale storage: high safety (non-flammable), long cycle life (over 15 years), and the ability to decouple power and energy capacity, offering greater design flexibility.
