The construction of the new energy capital adds new impetus. On September 7th, the Zhongke Solid Energy Sulfide All Solid Electrolyte Production Base project was signed in Liyang. Chen Liquan, academician of the CAE Member, attended the ceremony and delivered a speech via video. Chen Jinhu, secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, attended the ceremony and witnessed the signing of the contract.

All solid-state batteries are one of the main research and development directions for the next generation of power batteries, among which sulfide all solid-state batteries have overwhelming advantages over liquid batteries in terms of long cycle life, wide operating temperature range, high safety, and high energy density. The core team of the project is composed of Wu Fan's scientist studio jointly founded by the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Yangtze River Delta Physical Research Center and the Tianmu Lake Advanced Energy Storage Technology Research Institute. It will build the world's first production line for large-scale preparation of sulfide solid electrolyte, providing sufficient practical experience and basic data for the future preparation of 10000 ton sulfide solid electrolyte The core key intellectual property rights that have achieved a world leading position in terms of process routes and other aspects. The project will be carried out in two phases. The first phase has a total investment of 1 billion yuan for the large-scale production of all solid sulfide electrolyte materials. It is expected to have full production capacity from 2025 to 2026, and small-scale trials of sulfide solid electrolyte membranes, raw materials, and all solid battery cells will be launched in the same year. The total investment in the second phase is 5 billion yuan, and it is planned to build an all solid-state battery industry park before 2030. The supporting upstream and downstream industry chain will form a market of 100 billion yuan. Cheng Huiming, an academician of the CAS Member, and Sun Xueliang, a foreign academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, delivered congratulatory messages via video. Hangzhou Yong, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary General of the Municipal Party Committee, attended the ceremony. In recent years, Liyang has proactively laid out the green energy industry, led by three rounds of the "Tianmu Lake Talent List" and relying on cooperation between schools, regions, and universities, successfully promoted dozens of scientific and technological innovation service platforms, including the Yangtze River Delta Research Center of the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Tianmu Lake Advanced Energy Storage Research Institute, and the BASF-Yangtze River Delta Physics Research Center New Energy Vehicles and Energy Storage Joint Research Center. Currently, more than 80 upstream and downstream enterprises have been gathered, Covering the industrial chain links of positive and negative electrode materials, battery separators, electrolytes, structural components, lithium battery equipment, charging stations, etc.
