Chapter 572 The world's first, another record of the Nanshan Group

No matter at any time, being able to export something with technical content is a thing worth paying attention to in Huaxia.

In 2009, the situation was even more pronounced.

The Internet has been full of news that Nanshan Goat City Commercial Vehicle has obtained hundreds of export bus orders, and even a reporter called Nanshan Goat City Commercial Vehicle, and also confirmed that it has received a down payment, and it will start loading and departing in a few days.

In this way, Huaxia TV is also interested.

2.48 million new energy electric buses were exported to Dongying and developed countries in Europe, which is indeed a thing worth celebrating for the Huaxia automobile industry.

Therefore, Huaxia TV specially arranged a reporter to take a photographer to Nanshan Goat City Commercial Vehicle to do an interview, and reported it in the news at 30 minutes that night.

Although it is only a short time of twenty seconds, it is already a very good result for Nanshan Goat City Commercial Vehicle.

Xu Peirui also appeared on the screen of Huaxia TV for the first time, which made her full of energy!

"Mr. Cao, airports, universities, private operators and transportation companies in California are all consulting about our electric buses and electric bus projects."

"Looking at the situation in the United States as a whole, California has the highest requirements for vehicle exhaust emissions."

"I felt like I could set up a branch office in California and focus on developing our products in the U.S. market."

As the deputy general manager of the company and the head of the newly established international business department, Xu Peirui naturally hopes to make achievements as soon as possible.

California, which has always attached great importance to environmental protection, is naturally also a key market for her.

"No problem, the United States has a lot of airports, and they should have the largest number of airports in the world, and it would be very impressive to get more orders for airport buses."

"There are also universities that often pay more attention to environmental protection, and they should also be interested in electric buses."

"When the time comes, you can cooperate with Xingchen Automobile to see how to expand the American market together."

Although Nanshan Yangcheng Commercial Vehicle only has 50% of the shares of Nanshan Group, all the core components such as batteries are provided by Nanshan Group, in fact, more than eighty percent of the company's profits have been taken away by Nanshan Group.

Even if Cao Yang wants to go a little more excessive, he can directly turn Nanshan Goat City commercial vehicles into a loss, and it is Nanshan Group that makes money.

Of course, it's too much to do, and there's no point.

At that time, the relationship between everyone will be very stiff, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

However, in the promotion of Nanshan Yangcheng commercial vehicle products, Nanshan Group is still very willing to contribute.

After all, the most expensive part on electric buses and electric buses is the lithium iron phosphate battery pack provided by Nanshan Battery.

Nanshan battery is the next industry that Nanshan Group will focus on developing.

In the future, the battery industry will be a new blue ocean market.

Cao Yang has invested so much manpower and material resources to develop Nanshan Battery, naturally hoping that it can eat the biggest piece of cake.

And Nanshan Goat City commercial vehicles have made such a big move, the leaders of Lingnan Province are naturally very interested in visiting the site.

Liu Tianwu, the person in charge of Yangcheng, also accompanied him, and Cao Yang and Zhang Jiaqi personally served as the commentators.

"The B5 series electric buses are the most technologically advanced electric buses in the world, with a range of more than 300 kilometers, which can fully meet the operational needs of all bus routes."

"And our electric buses also support 3C fast charging, even if you forget to charge at night, you can quickly fill up during the day."

"The motor technology used in these electric buses is also the most advanced in the industry, which fully guarantees the power output needs of the vehicle in specific occasions."

"At present, the planned first-phase production capacity is 10,000 units per year, and 15,000 units can be achieved through additional overtime."

"According to the current market demand, we can start the construction of the second production line in the second half of next year."

"At that time, our new production line will introduce more automation equipment, so that our production efficiency can be greatly improved."

"After the final expansion, a large-scale production line with an annual output of 30,000 buses and buses will be formed, which is expected to achieve an output value of more than 50 billion yuan."

Zhang Jiaqi was very active there to explain the next step to the leader, and Cao Yang occasionally added a sentence or two.

For Cao Yang, it doesn't mean so much to show his face in front of the leader.

But Zhang Jiaqi, as the CEO of a state-owned enterprise under Yangcheng, is different.

Whether we can go further in the future depends on whether there are leaders to support us.

So far, Yangcheng Automobile Group has done a very good job in all aspects, and has steadily become the largest state-owned enterprise under Yangcheng.

"The rise of commercial vehicles in Nanshan Yangcheng marks the complete maturity of Yangcheng's automobile industry chain."

"We can produce not only passenger cars, but also commercial vehicles."

"The output value of the automobile industry in Yangcheng is the highest among all provinces and cities in the country."

Liu Tianwu naturally wanted to brush up on his achievements in front of the leaders at this time.

To be able to make the automobile output value higher than that of the Magic City, the Imperial Capital, Shuangqing and other municipalities directly under the central government on the scale of a provincial capital city, and higher than other provinces, this is naturally a achievement worthy of special mention.

Focusing on economic development, this is not a casual remark.

Liu Tianwu was able to sit in his current position so quickly, in addition to being supported by someone behind him, his own achievements are also very outstanding.

And among his achievements, the most effective is the automobile industry.

With the rise of Nanshan Group and the rapid development of Yangcheng Automobile Group, Liu Tianwu's achievements are also getting brighter and brighter year by year.

In this regard, the leaders are naturally also looking at it.

Although strictly speaking, these achievements may not have a particularly big relationship with Liu Tianwu.

It can even be said that Liu Tianwu's luck is better to a certain extent.

But sometimes, luck is also a kind of strength.

"The core part of this electric car should be the battery pack, right?"

As soon as the leaders of Lingnan Province asked, they immediately shifted the focus of the topic to Nanshan Battery.

knew that Cao Yang attached great importance to Nanshan battery, so this time Zhang Jiaqi did not speak, and gave Cao Yang the opportunity to answer the question.

"Yes, whether it is in terms of technical difficulty, cost composition, or the importance of parts, the battery pack is the most important component in an electric vehicle."

"These electric buses and electric buses of ours use lithium iron phosphate batteries produced by Nanshan Battery."

"Lithium iron phosphate belongs to the olivine structure, which is very stable."

"If the layered structure of the ternary battery is compared to a large flat layer, the olivine structure can be compared to the addition of an additional support structure in the large flat layer, which makes the floor less prone to collapse and greatly improves safety."

"From a chemical point of view, lithium iron phosphate is a typical orthorhombic crystal system, each unit cell contains four units, an octahedral FeO4 and a tetrahedral PO4 with two octahedral LiO6 collitions, respectively, and a tetrahedral PO4 with two octahedral LiO6 co-edges."

"FeO6 is connected to its four surrounding FeO6s by covertices to form a zigzag planar layer. The parallel planar layers formed by FeO6 are connected by PO4 tetrahedra and there is no connection between PO4. ”

"The crystal is composed of FeO6 and PO4 to form a space skeleton, because the LiFePO4 structure has a strong three-dimensional P-O-Fe bond, it is not easy to discipit oxygen, so the structure is stable, and the structure will not collapse due to high temperature or overcharge."

"Therefore, lithium iron phosphate has good high temperature resistance, and thermal decomposition of lithium iron phosphate battery will occur at about 700 °C when fully charged."

Since it is to say that the battery pack of Kwa Nanshan battery is doing well, it must be something professional to show.

So it doesn't matter if the leaders don't understand, as long as they can have the impression of "not knowing it".

"Mr. Cao, I remember that your Nanshan battery is now taking two technical routes, passenger cars use ternary lithium battery technology, and commercial vehicles use lithium iron phosphate technology, right?"

Liu Tianwu has also been to Nanshan Battery for many inspections, and he also understands some problems.

Now that there is his leader standing next to him, Liu Tianwu naturally wants to seize the opportunity to perform in time.

This is very beneficial for improving the leader's impression of himself.

"That's right, the leader has a good memory!"

"The Trumpchi S that we cooperated with Yangcheng Trumpchi is the ternary lithium battery technology used, so that the cruising range of electric taxis can reach 400 kilometers, which is also one of the best in the world, and it can even be said that there is no opponent."

"Ternary lithium battery technology and lithium iron phosphate battery have their own advantages, and our Nanshan battery is to fully consider their advantages and give full play to their respective strengths."

"In the future, we will further consider improving the performance of lithium iron phosphate batteries so that they can also be used in passenger cars."

"When the time comes, the use of ternary lithium batteries for high configuration and the use of lithium iron phosphate batteries for low configuration will make our customers' product lines more abundant."

Nanshan battery is an industry that Cao Yang attaches great importance to, so he is also the reason to tell you more.

The leaders are more impressed by Nanshan Battery, and it is naturally possible to receive more policy support in the future.

This is also a very important thing for the early development of the battery industry.

"Mr. Cao, what is the current ranking of Nanshan Battery's technology and production capacity in the country and even the world?"

This question really tickled Cao Yang's itch.

I was worried that I didn't know how to brag about this achievement, so the leader took the initiative to ask.

Wouldn't it be a waste of opportunity if this was not explained well?

"LEADER, ACCORDING TO THE RESULTS OF OUR INCOMPLETE STATISTICS, NANSHAN BATTERY NOW HAS THE WORLD'S LARGEST PRODUCTION CAPACITY, WITH A BATTERY PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF 1GWH."

"YOU MAY NOT HAVE ANY SPECIAL CONCEPT OF 1GWH PRODUCTION CAPACITY, BUT I CAN GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE TO GET A BETTER FEELING."

"SHENCHENG'S BYD BATTERY IS THE SECOND LARGEST POWER BATTERY PRODUCTION CAPACITY IN CHINA, WITH A PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF 0.1GWH, WHICH IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE TO 0.2GWH BY THE END OF NEXT YEAR."

"The battery production capacity of other domestic enterprises can only be counted by MWH, otherwise the data is a bit ugly."

"Looking at the world, in the field of electric vehicles, Panasonic batteries are doing relatively well, and they cooperate with Tesla to have a special battery factory in the United States to supply electric vehicles."

"In addition, there are some battery companies that supply a certain number of samples to OEMs, and have not yet formed large-scale mass production."

"And our Nanshan battery now not only supplies pure electric vehicle battery packs to Yangcheng Trumpchi and Nanshan Yangcheng commercial vehicles, but also supplies battery packs to BMW, and will soon supply battery packs to future cars."

"In addition, we are working with Ford Motor and General Motors, and we will supply battery packs for several electric vehicles with them in the future."

"To put it mildly, our Nanshan battery is now the world's first."

"This kind of first is not only the first in battery production capacity, but also the first in battery technology."

"Although batteries have been around for a long time, the mass production of large-scale electric vehicles has only started this year."

"Small-scale production, not much convincing."

"And the previous batteries were not very good in terms of power density and energy density, which was not enough to support the commercialization of electric vehicles."

"The situation is different now, with a range of 400 kilometers for passenger cars and 300 kilometers for commercial vehicles, which can already meet the needs of large-scale commercialization."

"Our Nanshan battery has laid out and invested in advance in advance, and has stuck the position of the industry leader."

"In the future, Nanshan Battery is expected to become the largest enterprise under Nanshan Group, except for Xingchen Automobile."

Cao Yang's explanation made the leaders full of expectations.

No. 1 in the country!

No. 1 in the world!

Everyone was very happy to hear this information.

The most important thing is that the cattle that Cao Yang has bragged about have all been realized.

It's not like when I go to some other companies to investigate, and the other party says a lot of firsts, but there is often a lot of moisture, which makes people don't know how to look at it.

"Mr. Cao, according to the current development speed of commercial vehicles in Nanshan Yangcheng, it is estimated that Nanshan Battery will need to build a new factory next year, right?"

Zhang Jiaqi, who is more familiar with Nanshan battery, also interjected a sentence in a timely manner next to him.

The construction of a new factory, whether it is the leaders of Lingnan Province or Yangcheng City, is naturally very interested.

"That's right, relevant planning has been made within Nanshan Battery, as long as the sales of Yangcheng Trumpchi's Trumpchi S and our electric buses can steadily increase, Nanshan Battery will officially start the construction of a new factory after the New Year."

"At that time, we will directly invest in the construction of a new factory with a capacity of 2GWH, and at the same time reserve the capacity to expand to 5GWH, so that we can quickly put into production and increase production in the future."

The data that Cao Yang said is completely inadequate in 2023.

At that time, the production capacity of various battery manufacturers was hundreds of GWH at every turn.

But in 2009, it was definitely very impactful.

YOU MUST KNOW THAT IF THERE IS NO NANSHAN GROUP, BY 2014, THE PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF BYD BATTERIES, WHICH IS THE FIRST IN THE COUNTRY, WILL ONLY BE 1GWH.

At present, Nanshan Battery has a production capacity of 1GWH in 2009, and will expand production next year.

This is equivalent to the development speed of the domestic power battery industry, at least five years in advance.

From a technical point of view, it may not be more than five years.

With these lead times, we can ensure that Huaxia's battery industry is at the forefront of the world.

At that time, there may be eighty percent of the top ten on the battery installed capacity list, or even all of them are the grand occasion of Huaxia battery enterprises.

Coupled with the overtaking of Huaxia auto parts companies in other new energy parts, the pattern of the electric vehicle industry has completely changed.

"Mr. Cao, I heard that Nanshan Group has purchased some lithium mines at home and abroad, although our Lingnan Province is not very rich in lithium resources, but I used to work in Xijiang Province, where lithium resources are relatively rich."

"If Nam Son Battery needs it, I can help bring the connection so that Nam Son Battery can also have its own mine in Tay Giang Province."

Obviously, when the leaders came to investigate, they also made some preparations.

How to retain the Nanshan Group, Lingnan Province is also thinking about this issue.

Purely in terms of preferential policies, Lingnan Province is not necessarily very advantageous.

Just now Cao Yang mentioned Nanshan Battery and mentioned the expansion of production capacity, and the leaders of Lingnan Province immediately thought of providing some help in the lithium mine.

Although there is no way to mine lithium in Lingnan Province, the battery factory will be placed in Lingnan Province at that time.

For this sudden overture, Cao Yang naturally accepted all the orders.

Now everyone has not fully felt the importance of lithium mines, and it will be different in a few years.

At that time, the cost of raw materials such as lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide will account for more than half of the cost of batteries.

If you can't have your own lithium mine, and all the materials have to be purchased from the market, then it will be difficult to produce batteries that are competitive.

In the face of a market that is destined to be very competitive in the future, battery companies without cost competitiveness are destined to be eliminated.

"Thank you leadership, our demand for lithium ore is as much as possible, as much as we want!"

Although it is only a few GWH now, it can be met casually.

But in the future, when demand becomes a few hundred GWH, or even a few TWH, the situation is completely different.

Cao Yang naturally has to take precautions.

Besides, the current price of lithium ore is not high, and if you buy it in advance, it can be regarded as an investment.

Next, Cao Yang and Zhang Jiaqi continued to explain the relevant situation to the leaders, and the inspection ended perfectly.

And the video related to the leadership inspection this time naturally appeared on the Lingnan News that day.

As an enterprise in Lingnan Province, BYD naturally also paid attention to this inspection in the province.

"LAO LU, DOES NANSHAN BATTERY HAVE A PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF 1GWH?"

Wang Fu's mood is very complicated.

On the one hand, Nanshan Group vigorously develops the battery industry and vigorously enters the new energy market, which shows that its judgment is not wrong and that the path chosen by BYD is not wrong.

On the other hand, Nanshan Group has developed better than BYD, which naturally brings competitive pressure to BYD.

"The sales volume of Yangcheng Trumpchi's Trumpchi S is estimated to reach 10,000 this year, and the sales of electric buses and electric buses of Nanshan Goatchi Commercial Vehicles are also expected to reach more than 1,000 this year."

"COUPLED WITH THE HYBRID BATTERIES USED IN THE STAR SPORTS CAR AND SOME BATTERY PACKS SUPPLIED TO BMW, THEY NEED MORE THAN 600MWH OF PRODUCTION CAPACITY THIS YEAR, SO IT IS NOT SURPRISING THAT THEY HAVE A CAPACITY OF 1GWH."

"EVEN IF IT IS A 1GWH PRODUCTION CAPACITY, IT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET THE MARKET DEMAND NEXT YEAR, AND WE NEED NOT TO EXPAND THE PRODUCTION CAPACITY."

"The market for electric taxis, electric buses and electric buses is bigger than we thought."

"Especially the export of electric buses, which is a market that we didn't consider before."

"I inquired about it, and the intention orders for Nanshan Goat City commercial vehicles in terms of export have now exceeded 500."

"If all goes well, next year's export orders can exceed 2,000 vehicles, or even more."

"When the market in various parts of the country is also opened up by them, then it is possible to produce more than 10,000 electric buses and buses per year."

"Considering that if the sales of Trumpchi S can be stabilized next year, then it can also contribute to the sales of at least 10,000 units, and the production capacity of Nanshan battery is not enough."

Lv Faxiang, as the person in charge of BYD's battery business, can be described as sour when he talks about this.

Obviously, BYD has been working in the battery field for a longer time, why was it surpassed by Nanshan battery unconsciously?

It shouldn't be!

The point is that there is no hope of overtaking in the short term.

"It seems that our E5 should be launched on the market as soon as possible, and the electric bus project should be launched as soon as possible, otherwise the market will be snatched away by others."

Wang Fu has always felt that the pace of developing new energy has been relatively fast, but he did not expect that compared with Nanshan Group, it is still half a beat slower.

Although he has not been to Nanshan Goat City Commercial Vehicle, it can be seen from the videos he saw in the news that the scale of this factory is not small.

After all, commercial vehicles are not like passenger cars, and they are measured in units of 100,000 units at every turn.

To be able to produce 10,000 electric buses is already remarkable.

It is even more than the total number of policy support for "10 cities and 1,000 vehicles" announced by the ministry.

"It is true that we can further speed up, but there is a certain gap between our battery performance and Nanshan battery, and when the time comes, we may have to promote our strengths and avoid weaknesses."

The real car dismantling of Trumpchi S, BYD must have done it.

For the battery pack provided by Nanshan Battery, Lv Faxiang also personally participated in the confirmation.

Although he is not very willing to admit it, other people's products are indeed more advanced than theirs.

Whether it is in terms of energy density, power density, or even the consistency of battery cells, there are obvious advantages.

To catch up with this gap, Lu Faxiang feels that it will take at least a few years.

The key is that in the past few years, Nanshan Battery will not wait for BYD there.

Maybe even because of the advantage of technological leadership, in a few years, the gap between everyone may become even wider.

Wang Fu naturally knew about this, so he did not excessively persecute Lu Faxiang.

However, BYD's emphasis on the battery business has been upgraded to another level.

This has laid a solid foundation for BYD to become the world's second largest battery company after Nanshan Battery in the future.
