Grid solar roof, electric motor, build storage station . Now, Tesla seems to be rejuvenated by the electric lithium-ion battery. A document showed that Tesla had interest on power lithium-ion battery recycling According to foreign media, a document exposed by the Sec (US Securities Exchange Commission), Tesla's two executives: Joint founding Andrewstevenson, the person in charge of CTOJBSTRAUBEL and the company's special project, jointly created a new company named "Redwoodmaterials", the recycling and reuse of main industrial raw materials.
According to estimates, these "raw materials" refer to it is likely to be powered lithium-ion battery raw materials. According to the document disclosed in SEC, RedwoodMaterial was established at the beginning of this year and is located in Redwood, California. In the last month, an unknown investor also conducted $ 2 million in investment.
From the perspective of Tesla, the power lithium-ion battery recycling business will play an important role in its future development road. According to statistics, the company's production and sales volume last year is 80,000 vehicles. By 2020, the company's pure electric car annual production and sales will exceed 1 million units.
To this end, Tesla will build 4 super battery plants this year to meet the needs of the product in the dynamic lithium-ion battery. With the rapid development period of the new energy car market, the power of the power lithium-ion battery is also high. Since this year, the price of nickel-wateng manganese and lithium cobaltate used as a positive electrode material has risen sharply.
In February, the price of 1,4.35V cobaltate has risen to 260,000 yuan / ton, up 18% over December last year; the price of the power lithium-ion battery three-yuan material 523 is also 155,000 yuan / ton rose to 160,000 yuan. / Ton, nearly 5%.
In Ningde Times, LG, BYD, Samsung and other companies have announced the background of their respective increased production programs, Tesla clearly wants to lay out in advance in the field of power lithium-ion battery recycling, can also alleviate the cost pressure caused by the rise of upstream raw materials. However, the current electric motor market size has not yet to support the battery to recover this market. At present, there is less than 1% in the global market.
The electric vehicles of the International Mainstream Motors Group will be largely listed in 2018 to 2020, while these cars have been scrapped in 5 to 8 years. Therefore, Tesla two executives have more decisions. In addition, the recycling of the power lithium-ion battery also has a high technical threshold.
According to the reporter, the core technology of the dynamic lithium-ion battery recovery industry is how to extract or extract the active ingredients or extracted with the appropriate chemical solvent, and re-use the battery raw materials. But these formulations are also a commercial confidentiality of the power lithium-ion battery company. It is difficult to master the battery recycling factory.
However, the process of producing dynamic lithium-ion batteries in Panasonic cooperation can help the company have a more thorough understanding of battery components, making it more advantageous to carry out dynamic lithium-ion battery recycling business. A few days ago, Straubel said in the speech of Mexican National Corporate Week, Tesla has established a recycled device in its super battery factory GigaFactory1, which is very interested in the company's recycling and reuse of second-hand battery packs.
