Chapter 456 - Powerful Sulfide Solid-State Lithium Battery!
At this time, the microphone came to the hands of the next reporter.
The reporter was short in stature, with some Japanese on his clothes, and looked like a reporter from an island country.
I saw that the reporter from the island country asked after receiving the microphone:
"Mr. Lin Xuan, now that New Century Battery Energy Company has been established, it is said that it will soon be able to launch a 235h/kg ternary polymer lithium battery, I am afraid that the good days of your sodium-ion batteries are over.
In the face of powerful ternary polymer lithium batteries, your sodium-ion batteries are completely crushed and can't lift your head, I'm afraid that your huge investment will be lost.
I wonder if you Hantang Technology regretted spending a huge amount of money on the research and development of sodium-ion batteries and for the construction of a huge sodium-ion battery factory?"
Hearing the reporter's words, the reporters at the scene pointed their cameras and camera lenses at Lin Xuan, wanting to capture Lin Xuan's expression of regret, so that they could interview the news that was popular all over the world.
After all, the ternary polymer lithium battery of New Century Battery Energy Company is too powerful, and the energy density of Hantang Technology's sodium-ion battery is too low on such a powerful battery.
It can be said that as soon as the ternary polymer lithium battery in the new century comes out, the market positioning and sales of Tang Technology's sodium-ion battery will suffer a great setback.
Faced with this situation, in the imagination of his reporters, Lin Xuan would definitely show a regretful expression.
However, at this time, Lin Xuan laughed in the surprised eyes of the reporters:
"First of all, this Mr. Reporter may have confused the operation mechanism of the market, first of all, a thing is not that the stronger the performance, it can defeat the invincible opponents in the world, so that other products are completely extinct and cannot survive.
There will always be mid-range, high-end and low-end in this world, what is the biggest advantage of Hantang Technology's sodium-ion battery? Different people have different opinions.
But in my opinion, the biggest advantage of sodium-ion batteries is that they are cheap, followed by their long service life, and the energy density is secondary!"
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, the reporters at the scene all showed stunned expressions.
I didn't expect that the price factor of sodium-ion batteries was the most important in Lin Xuan's eyes, followed by life, and the energy density was only third?!
At this time, the reporters all looked at Lin Xuan in amazement, not knowing why Lin Xuan had such an opinion.
In this regard, a surging smile appeared on the corner of Lin Xuan's mouth, and then explained:
"You're only looking for the most powerful thing, but you don't know the market positioning.
From the beginning of the research and development of sodium-ion batteries, we have positioned it to serve the low-end and alternative markets, and it is an unexpected joy that it can open up sales in the mid-end market at present.
Because of the mid-range and high-end, it will definitely have our all-solid-state lithium battery of Hantang Technology, so our goal has never been deviated."
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, there was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the reporters at the scene.
It turns out that Hantang Technology's positioning of sodium-ion batteries is only to serve the low-end, and in this case, no matter how strong the performance of the ternary polymer lithium battery of New Century Battery Energy Company is, it really has nothing to do with the sodium-ion battery. ….
Because no matter how strong the performance of ternary polymer lithium batteries is, they cannot enter the low-end market, after all, the cathode materials in ternary polymer lithium batteries use various rare elements, such as germanium and titanium and other precious metals.
Because of the price of these precious metals, the price of their raw materials naturally limits their selling price.
Therefore, they can only enter the mid-end market at most, but they can't enter the low-end market, and they can't fight with sodium-ion batteries!
The reporters who thought of this all showed expressions of sudden realization.
In this regard, Lin Xuan did not stop his words, only to see him groan slightly, and then slowly spoke:
"In addition to the differentiated competition formed by market positioning, the longevity that I value the most is our natural advantage.
You may not know that the life of ternary polymer lithium battery is not long, the number of charging and discharging cycles is only between 800~1200, and the service life is also 4 years on average
Between 8 years, the longer the age, the lower the performance of the battery.
In this case, although the energy density of ternary polymer lithium batteries is very high, it is difficult for it to serve some special markets, such as the energy storage market of the grid."
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, many people at the scene showed expressions of sudden realization, but there were also many people who showed confused expressions, they didn't know why Lin Xuan specifically mentioned the grid energy storage market.
At this time, they didn't know that the grid energy storage market could swallow 52% of the country's total production capacity in the future, which is a major source of profit for battery companies!
However, even now, the grid energy storage market accounts for a relatively large proportion of sales.
However, many people don't know about this news, and only some reporters know about the cooperation between Hantang Technology and major power grid companies in Daxia.
At this time, the microphone came to the hands of the next reporter, the reporter's device had traditional Chinese characters, and it appeared to be a reporter from Bay Island.
"Mr. Lin Xuan, do you think your all-solid-state lithium battery will be strong in the future, or will the all-solid-state lithium battery of New World Battery Energy Company be strong?"
Hearing the reporter's words, the other reporters at the scene also focused their curious eyes on Lin Xuan, I don't know what kind of answer Lin Xuan had in the face of this question?
In this regard, Lin Xuan pondered slightly, and then said slowly:
"At present, there are three R&D lines for all-solid-state lithium batteries in the world, namely oxides, polymers and sulfides.
Polymers and oxides are the easiest types to produce scientific results, but they both have different flaws.
Among them, polymer is the easiest line to produce fruit, but its upper limit of energy density is not high, only about 300h/kg.
The second thing that is easy to produce results is the oxide line, but the defect of the oxide line is that it uses a large number of rare metals such as germanium and titanium, and its price is destined to be relatively high, and the total market volume in the future will be relatively limited."
Hearing this, the people at the scene nodded slightly.
At this time, after Lin Xuan's explanation, they had a little understanding of all-solid-state lithium batteries.
It turns out that the battery development line of New Century Battery Energy Company has a defect, which is that they use a large number of rare metals such as germanium and titanium, and the future price is destined to be relatively expensive, and the total market volume in the future will be relatively limited.
Hearing this, they were a little curious about the last line, that is, the sulfide line, and wondered how about the sulfide all-solid-state lithium battery line chosen by Hantang Technology?
In this regard, Lin Xuan smiled and said in the eyes of people's curiosity:
"Our Hantang Technology has chosen the last line, which is only the sulfide solid-state lithium battery development line, and the sulfide line is the most difficult to develop among the three lines, but the line with the strongest battery comprehensive performance!.
