Recently, Zhang Lengpei, Vice President of Shanghai Dongjian Digital Energy Technology Group Co., Ltd., Ouyang Haina, General Manager of Solutions for the Group's Sodium Power Division, Dr. Fang Ming, General Manager and Research Institute President of Lepu Sodium Power (Shanghai) Technology Co., Ltd., and Dr. Zong Zhuoshuo, Cofounder and CTO of Dongjian Sodium Storage (Shanghai) Technology Co., Ltd. led a team to Haisida Power Co., Ltd. to meet with Vice President and Procurement Director Zhang Xiaodong The Dean of the Research Institute, Teng Yanmei, and the leader of Hengxin Huaye, Li Yaowei, had a discussion. Based on a common vision and cooperation concept, both parties have launched comprehensive cooperation on key materials for sodium ion batteries, formed a strategic alliance using their respective resource advantages, and jointly accelerated the process of sodium electricity industrialization.
In order to better meet the diversified and personalized performance needs of sodium ion batteries in domestic and foreign end markets, both parties have signed a written cooperation agreement: Lepu Sodium Power will establish a special group of Haisida to concentrate its advantageous research and development efforts, provide targeted development and joint research services for battery materials, to adapt to the differentiated requirements of different batteries for material performance, and provide production capacity guarantee. The first batch of materials to initiate targeted development includes three high-power High capacity, high voltage layered oxide cathode materials and two polyanionic materials; Haisida will provide continuous support in terms of technical requirements, information sharing, material priority procurement, and core supplier list; Both sides will establish a long-term communication mechanism, hold regular meetings, continuously consolidate cooperation achievements, and strengthen cooperation relations.
Haisida Power was founded in 1994 and is a subsidiary of the listed company Pritt (002324). It mainly produces lithium and sodium batteries and has established a complete R&D and manufacturing system in the field of power and energy storage batteries, possessing core technologies throughout the entire industry chain. It is a military power supply, State Grid energy storage system, three major communication operators, and a supplier of emergency power for China's subway and light rail. Its products are widely used in new energy energy storage, electric tools and smart appliances, new energy vehicles, low-speed electric vehicles, electric bicycles, as well as aerospace, rail transit, electric ships, weapons and equipment, emergency lighting and other fields. Haisida has a forward-looking layout and rapid development in the commercial field of sodium ion batteries. Currently, it has launched multiple sodium battery products such as square and cylindrical ones, which have received high attention and recognition from the market.
Lepu Sodium Battery, as a technology leader in the field of sodium battery materials, is a sodium battery positive electrode material enterprise established based on three years of continuous research and development and breakthroughs in sodium ion battery materials, and relying on the founding team's nearly 20 years of industrialization experience in the field of new energy battery materials. It has completed four rounds of financing within six months of its establishment and has been widely recognized. The company has 10 types of cathode material products with layered oxide and polyanion dual route layout, and has developed innovative product sequences such as quaternary sodium cathode, lithium sodium composite material, and solid sodium electrolyte. In the future, it can expand more sodium electricity application scenarios. The 20000 ton production base of Lepu Sodium Electric Dual Route Composite is under construction, providing customers with personalized development services and menu style customized production, helping more battery companies enrich their product series and enhance their competitiveness.
The popularization of sodium batteries requires the collaborative efforts of the entire industry chain. The cooperation between Lepu Sodium Power and Haisida has injected new vitality into the development of the new energy industry, opening a new situation for cooperation between sodium battery material enterprises and battery manufacturers. The cooperation between the two sides not only lies in the upstream and downstream supply and marketing aspects, but also in comprehensive and deep cooperation from research and development, technology to product innovation. This new cooperation paradigm will bring positive impact and reference significance to the development of the sodium battery industry, effectively promote the innovation and industrialization process of sodium battery technology, and create more value and opportunities, contributing to the upgrading of the national energy structure and sustainable development.
