Wan Xiang Group promotes a major layout

At the beginning of June this year, Wanxiang Group launched a mobilization meeting for the innovative fusion city project built by Hangzhou Xiaoshankejicheng and plans to start at the end of this year. Wan Xiang Group announced in 2017 that it is expected to invest 200 billion yuan in the next 7-10 years to build the entire project.

According to relevant data, the project mainly involves 12 key construction projects such as lithium-ion power batteries, new energy passenger vehicles, international financial technology community, smart city CBD community, and research institute, which will achieve the "entity + number". Deep integration. What is more unique is that block chain technology will play an important role.

Regardless of the development significance of the innovative poly city project for the entire Wanxiang Group, it is certain that the development potential of Wanxiang 123 in the power battery field can not be underestimated.

According to the statistics of the Institute of Lithium Power Research(GGII), among the TOP10 companies with power battery installed capacity from January to May 2018, the 10,000 direction 123 ranked eighth with a total installed power of 0.22 GWh. That's close to the annual battery capacity of 10000123 last year.

In order to cooperate with the overall planning of the group company, what will be the important layout of Wan Xiang 123 in the new energy field in the next few years? The following four events provide a glimpse.

First, steadily expand the 80GWh power battery project.

At the end of May this year, after Wanxiang Group and Xiaoshan District signed a framework agreement for the construction of an innovative energy city project, the government has successively carried out land acquisition, land use approval, and road network planning. The latest news shows that nearly 10 square kilometers of innovation in the city will launch a new energy car power battery project.

At present, the project will ensure that the two key projects of 80GWh power battery and 50,000 new energy passenger vehicles in District 1 will be substantially launched, and 10,000 pure electric passenger car projects will be started.

According to the status of this year's declaration, Wan Xiang 123 has a total of 5 supporting models in the 304-309 batch declaration catalogue. The batteries have lithium iron phosphate and three-way lines, both pure electric passenger vehicles and passenger car models, as well as interpolated and hybrid models.

The second is the introduction of 48V Super nanometer iron phosphate lithium batteries.

The "48V Super Nanophosphate Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery" was developed by the North American engineering team of universal 123 and uses ultra-nanophosphate patented technology. The battery has excellent power performance(power density of 5.9 kW/kg), long cycle life, high safety, By adopting passive cooling heat management design, the battery size is smaller and it is easier to integrate the whole vehicle.

At present, Wan Xiang 123 has obtained a number of mass production project orders worldwide, and some projects have entered the mass production stage. It is expected that by 2020, the shipment will reach 500,000 sets per year.

At the same time, this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the State announced the list of the first batch of projects for the technology upgrading guidance plan for industrial enterprises in 2018, and Wanxiang has an annual output of 570,000 sets of high-power 48V microhybrid power supply systems.

The total investment of the project is 1.303 billion yuan. The existing factory building is appropriately reconstructed and designed to meet the requirements of uniform pulp, positive and negative polar coating, dry injection, chemical formation, capacity sharing, assembly and other production links, and the establishment of advanced power battery systems. Scale production line.

In fact, what makes Wan Xiang 123 famous in the 48V micromixing system is that in 2017 it won the Shanghai General Motors 2.6 million sets of 48V Super lithium iron phosphate batteries.

Based on the technical advantages and leading position previously established by Wan Xiang 123 in the field of lithium iron phosphate batteries, winning a general order will open another market door for Wan Xiang 123.

Industry analysis believes that the main growth point of the 48V battery market in the future is North America, Western Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region, where fuel economy standards and emission regulations are relatively strict.

By 2025, 54 % of the world's vehicles will be equipped with 48V systems and 11 million vehicles will be loaded, according to the IHS data report. If calculated according to the 0.6-1 kWh per vehicle, the total charge will be about 15 GWh.

The third is to enter the field of distributed energy storage.

The first of the universal innovation projects mentioned in the opening chapter was the scheme, product, and project of the block chain scenario related to distributed energy, smart manufacturing, and smart cities.

Wang Xiang's chief innovation officer and former general manager of IBM's Greater China Innovation Division, Wangyunzhen, once revealed that the first recruitment of energy solutions was based on the fact that Wan Xiang was developing an electric car. The important link in the value chain is car batteries, and more importantly, Energy innovation is very important for future cities.

Compared to 2015, lithium batteries have become the mainstream of domestic energy storage, especially power grid storage applications. By 2020, storage energy will achieve a real large-scale explosion in one or two segments of the market. It is estimated that by 2020, the total demand for lithium energy storage on the power generation side and the power grid side will be 8GWh.

Combining block chains and distributed energy storage has greatly improved the efficiency of the entire grid, says Taoquming, vice president of the universal block chain company. The National Grid can solve 90 % of the power generation, and the remaining 10 % peak filling can actually be solved by distributed power generation.

Fourth, the forward layout of solid state batteries.

In February 2018, Solid Power confirmed that it would work with BMW to develop a new generation of electric-vehicle solid-state battery technology, which will be used in BMW's xEV series, according to BMW's statement.

Founded in 2012, SolidPower focuses on the development and expansion of competitive solid-state batteries, with a particular focus on battery safety, performance and cost.

Through a series of technical and material upgrades and improvements, SolidPower achieved a breakthrough and created a solid battery with a capacity of 2-3 times higher than traditional lithium ions.

Afterwards, Wan Xiang once again expanded its layout in the solid state battery field. At the end of February 2018, Wan Xiang announced that its A123 system company had invested in the United States ion material company. The company is a new material technology company, the development of special polymer electrolytes, which can improve the performance of new solid state batteries to a new level.
