CATL Huang Shilin: Create a closed-loop lithium battery chain of 'research and development production storage recycling?

　　Author ：Iflowpower – Portable Power Station Supplier

Since its establishment in 2011, the Just 5 years, CATL New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (CATL) has grown to the highest comprehensive strength of my country's powered lithium battery.

At present, more than 6,000 electric vehicles have been equipped with CATL's power lithium batteries in the country, and there is no example of battery safety issues. In the face of the achievements that have been achieved, the next stage CATL will lay out in the company's business, how to break through battery technology? On December 16, CATL President Huang Shilin received an interview with a number of media in Catl's headquarters. CATL President Huang Shilin Creating a closed-loop lithium-ion battery industry chain CATL currently important battery service has three major sectors, electric bus applications, electric passenger cars applications and energy storage applications.

In the electric passenger car, CATL is developed by three yuan material batteries, electric bus and energy storage applications are based on lithium iron phosphate ion batteries. The battery of these two materials, CATL has a fast charge application design, Huang Shilin introduced, "This is an important thing to do according to customer needs, our fast-charged target is 15 minutes full of electricity, which means charging can Do 4C, probably put in the market in 2018. We plan to achieve 6C charging before 2020, can be filled with 10 minutes.

"In addition to the development and production of ternary batteries and lithium iron phosphate ion batteries, Huang Shilin's most optimistic business is the energy storage application." In fact, the energy storage is my favorite, I personally like energy storage. The future market will be much larger than electric cars in the future.

"Huang Shilin introduced that there are three major pieces of applications in the future, the first is the application of power generation, including photovoltaic, wind power, thermal power, and future nuclear power to be used; the second is during transmission. The third is the user side, this is also the most important application, used in the peak, smart grid, and future distributed photovoltaic power generation, etc. And the energy storage application is closely related to the power recovery business, Huang Shilin introduced that CATL acquisition of Bangpu is to build the entire lithium-ion battery industry chain.

For example, the battery applied in the bus is 8 years. After eight years, its capacity is 70% -80% left, and this battery is unfortunately. So you can use such a battery to use, take it down and do it.

After the ladder is used, it will be recycled again, go to the raw materials of the battery. This forms a closed-loop lithium-electric industry chain, and it can create a better benefit in every aspect, forming a circular economy. Confidence makes high-density, low-cost batteries according to the "13th Five-Year Plan" money.

In the face of such a goal, most battery companies feel difficult to achieve, Huang Shilin means that CATL has strong confidence, he explains that the price of the battery is set by the watt, which is also 1 kg material, stored The power is doubled, which is equivalent to price reduction. At present, most batteries are 3,000 times, and there is a large increase in space in the future, which will also reduce power lithium battery costs. In 2020, CATL hopes to increase the number of cycles of the battery to 15,000 times.

Huang Shilin said that through these comprehensive indicators, Huang Shilin has formed a certain advantage in the technology of dynamic lithium batteries. In 2020, my country can realize product performance and prices in the world, so that my country's new energy car will also have strong competitiveness. By 2020, CATL hopes to invest more than 30 billion to develop research and development and production, and plan to form a 50G Wa-time effective production.

About the mainstream route of the power lithium battery, Huang Shilin believes that it will gradually evolve the direction of lithium iron / graphite, ternary / graphite, high nickel ternary / silicone to solid lithium air metal. At present, CATL's annual R & D investment is 5% -6% of sales, there are more than 150 doctors, more than 1,000 master's degree. CATL plans to further enhance the power lithium battery technology.

Without subsidies, electric vehicles also have competitive advantages. After no subsidies, electric vehicles and fuel vehicles have always been competitive compared to industry concerns. Huang Shilin believes that more traditional fuel vehicles fuel consumption of at least 10 liters per 100 kilometers, about more than 60 yuan; new energy vehicles spent 10 degrees per 100 kilometers, even if it is 15 degrees, 1 degree electric 2 dollars, one hundred The kilometer costs only 30 yuan, and it is not more than half of the traditional fuel truck.

According to the power lithium battery target set by the country, if it realizes 1 dollar per watt in 2020, that is, 1 电 1000 yuan, even with 40-degree power lithium battery only 40,000 yuan. In this case, even if there is no national subsidy, electric car costs and fuel cars are also up and down. In addition, with the construction of charging infrastructure, fast charge technology is more mature, consumers will have no mileage anxiety and charging anxiety.

At the same time, electric car maintenance is much more than traditional fuel cars. If these advantageous points can be realized, then electric vehicles are very competitive compared with traditional fuel vehicles! From "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" to "13th Five-Year Plan", my country's new energy cars have come to the world's forefront, the next stage, my country's new energy automobile technology route is "pure electric drive" to "electric power, intelligent, lightweight" strategically upgraded, comprehensively enhance my country's new energy vehicle overall technology level. With regard to CATL, "13th Five" will also be a technical upgrade year, During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, CATL has accumulated the leading position of my country's battery company with a solid technology, and the next stage, CATL's goal is based on the product Performance and price advantages, becoming a leader in battery companies.
