Ningde era will put into production a sodium-ion battery production line next year
A few days ago, Meng Xiangfeng, assistant to the chairman of the Ningde era and first secretary of the party committee, revealed that a sodium-ion battery production line will be put into production next year. . Prior to this, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued a CPPCC proposal response letter in August, stating that relevant departments will support sodium-ion batteries to accelerate the transformation of innovation achievements and support the construction of advanced product mass production capacity.
It is understood that the first-generation sodium-ion battery of CATL was released online on July 29. Its single cell energy density reached 160Wh/kg, which was slightly lower than lithium iron phosphate battery , but its low-temperature performance It has obvious advantages in fast charging. At the same time, the lithium-sodium hybrid battery pack also made its debut at the press conference.
Ningde Times revealed at that time that the industrialization layout of sodium-ion batteries has been launched, and a basic industrial chain will be formed in 2023. In addition, in terms of manufacturing processes, sodium-ion batteries can achieve perfect compatibility with lithium-ion battery production equipment and processes, and the production line can be quickly switched to complete the rapid layout of production capacity.
Weilai ET7's first trial production car rolled off the assembly line, and mass production in the first quarter of next year
September 16,The first batch of production line trial vehicles of Weilai ET7 officially rolled off the assembly line, and a series of vehicle and performance tests will be carried out subsequently.
