Chapter 215: True Industrial Miracle (3-in-1)
Kangchi continued to press the button, and the screen switched to a picture of the battery pack, as well as the caption:
γSodium-ion batteryγ
"That's right, in fact, everyone must have guessed through the cooperation news announced by us and CATL that our return to the truth will be equipped with a sodium-ion battery."
"Some people must be curious, why is it a sodium-ion battery, isn't the performance of a nano-ion battery worse than that of a lithium-ion battery? Is this another reversal of technology? β
"Personally, I think we need to look at this issue from a dialectical perspective."
"Whether a technology is high-tech or low-tech, we can't just look at its performance, but also weigh a variety of factors, especially for civilian products, cost performance is a very important measurement indicator."
"I think that on the premise of meeting the demand, try to lower the user's consumption threshold, and the technology that can be enjoyed by more people is high-tech!"
"The sodium-ion battery has such a cost advantage, not to mention that in addition to the cost, its performance is not bad at all!"
[Energy density: 300Wh/kg]
Looking at the data published on the screen, everyone was stunned!
β300Wh/kgοΌοΌβ
"Damn, 300Wh/kg sodium-ion battery?"
"Higher energy density than LG and Songxia's lithium-ion batteries?"
"Master Kong is so awesome this time!"
"Awesome, my Mr. Kang really never speaks! This is really high-tech! β
"Haha, I'll just say, how can the technology that can make CATL bow down with a shock to the tiger's body, how can it be a compromise to make up for the lack of technology through a business model!"
"Musk: Mr. Kang, ah, slap in the face, ah, ah~"
"Mr. Kang: Okay, I have a showdown, huh? Why are the tables gone! β
ββ¦β¦β
After a short lag, netizens immediately began to send various barrages frantically to express their ecstasy over the emergence of this sodium battery technology.
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room was suddenly cheerful and lively, like the New Year.
The number of people watching the live broadcast was 30 million at the beginning, but then it dropped by 5 million because of the 'ordinary' of the real thing, but after the announcement of this sodium battery, it rushed to 40 million people in one fell swoop!
However, unlike the excited netizens,
All the new energy vehicles and battery manufacturers who paid attention to this live broadcast suddenly went from head to toe after seeing this battery data.
As industry insiders, they know better than any audience that the emergence of this technology will completely disrupt the current pattern of new energy vehicles and battery manufacturing.
New energy vehicles will definitely enter a new era because of the emergence of this technology.
And in the tide of the new era, there will definitely be people who will be swallowed by the tide, and there will also be people who can ride the wind and waves and write brilliance!
β300Wh/kgβ¦β¦β
Anil, who had just released the return to truth for Datang Heavy Industries, was relieved that he had no competition with them, and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem after seeing this figure.
In the face of this kind of technology, they Tesla and LG have just signed an order for up to three years, and it immediately became the biggest joke and burden!
However, energy density is only one of the most important indicators of the battery, and if there is no guarantee in terms of safety, it is useless to do high energy density.
And if this battery is really fine, then they may have to consider how to terminate the contract they just signed with LG at the lowest cost, and continue to purchase sodium batteries from CATL......
However, this is just wishful thinking on the part of Anil.
Sometimes you want to buy it, but people don't necessarily sell it......
ββ¦β¦ The main reason why this sodium battery can achieve 300Wh/kg is that it is actually an all-solid-state battery! β
After giving the audience a short time to digest the content, Kangchi continued to explain,
"As you must know, compared with traditional liquid batteries, all-solid-state batteries not only have higher energy density, but also far more safety, cold and heat resistance and longer service life than liquid batteries."
Next, Kangchi showed you a video of this sodium-ion battery in puncture, extrusion, fire roasting and other safety tests through a video, and the performance is naturally not picky.
"In terms of cold and heat resistance, thanks to the addition of a specially developed pentamethylacetamide material to the polymer electrolyte of our battery, the ion transmission efficiency of sodium ions at low temperatures is greatly improved."
"In laboratory tests, the polymer electrolyte has a nano-ion mobility number of up to 0.85 at 30 degrees!"
"Stronger cold and heat resistance will greatly alleviate the situation of electric vehicles, which have broken battery range in harsh winter environments."
"This is the measured data of our engineers who went to the Daxinganling area five days ago, and you can see that the battery attenuation is only 7% in the case of minus 15 degrees, and the battery attenuation is almost zero in the case of zero degrees."
"Therefore, pure electric vehicles will no longer be exclusive to the south in the future, and it will also have a place in the cold north!"
After listening to Kangchi's analysis, the old iron in the north in the live broadcast room suddenly climaxed in the skull!
"Last year, I bought an electric car in the north of the big injustice, said that the inflow is full, the target is 400 kilometers, and the actual winter can not even drive 160 kilometers, and the cold is reluctant to turn on the air conditioner, the key is to say who dares to believe it, the family ......"
"Good guy, I was just here to have a good time, but I didn't expect to fall into the fish pond dug by Master Kong before I could catch it!"
"Mr. Kang, don't say it, hurry up and announce the price on the link, we can't afford the lithography machine, and the camera can't be played, but our old iron in the north is all old drivers, and it's not easy to drive a car?"
ββ¦β¦β
In addition to higher cold and heat resistance, this solid-state sodium-ion battery is limited by solid-state electrolyte because of the production of nanodendrite, and the theoretical cycle life is as high as 5,000 times, which is more than twice the cycle life of liquid lithium iron phosphate!
Seeing this, almost all lithium battery manufacturers suddenly fell into despair.
Huaguo's lithium battery companies are okay, after all, there is an example of CATL going ashore in advance, and with Kangchi's past style, they should not mind taking them along the way.
But lithium battery manufacturers like LG and Songxia and other island countries and stick countries really felt at this time what it means to completely break despair.
Because Datang Heavy Industries is on the selection list!
Without their father's consent, even if Kangchi licensed the technology to them, they would not dare to use it.
What's more, judging from Kangchi's previous behavior against companies such as Suoni, Shin-Etsu Chemical, and Sanxing, he is full of hostility towards the enterprises of the island country and the stick country.
Therefore, it is equally difficult to obtain a technical license from him......
this
Probably the feeling of being stuck in the neck?
The employees of Datang Heavy Industries at the live broadcast couldn't help but clench their fists excitedly when they looked at Kangchi in the live broadcast.
When Datang Heavy Industry officially opened, Kangchi threatened at the conference to take them to jam other people's necks.
I didn't expect it to come true so quickly on this day!
"In fact, with this sodium battery, we can very easily pile up the range to 1,000 or even 2,000 kilometers."
Kangchi in front of the camera continued,
"But we're not going to do that."
"Although improving battery life can indeed alleviate the problem of battery life anxiety to a large extent, everyone needs to pay a higher cost for buying a larger battery pack."
"And problems such as waiting for charging, damaging the battery at too fast charging speed, and pinching the trough time of electricity prices will still be a problem for everyone to use electric vehicles."
"In order to solve this problem, while minimizing the waste of our country's power resources, to achieve the purpose of staggered peak filling, green and low-carbon, we Datang Heavy Industry plans to invest at least 600 billion yuan, nationwide, to promote the construction of battery swap stations, these battery swap stations can not only replace our electric vehicles, but also have the role of energy storage stations."
"By the end of next month, the 30,000 battery swap station outlets we planned in the initial stage will all be opened one after another, and next year, we will continue to invest in the construction of 50,000 battery swap stations, which can basically achieve the density of outlets, the same as the current gas station!"
Although most people have actually heard that Datang Heavy Industry is laying a battery swap station before, they still feel a little shocked after hearing it from Kangchi's mouth.
In particular, he announced the specific number of battery swap stations and the scale of investment.
"Damn, at least 600 billion investment?!"
"Master Kong's pen scared the baby to death!"
"Ah, I really want to know how much Master Kong is worth now? Can someone analyze the analysis not? β
"Mr. Kang's company is not listed, so there is no way to analyze it, but he has a lot of assets and debts, and it is estimated that he doesn't even know what his real net worth is...... Funny face .jpg"
"Haha, anyway, I know that Dahan Silicon Industry still has at least tens of billions of loans that have not been repaid."
"Ah, I can't feel the happiness of billionaires, but I can feel the happiness of billionaires."
"Boss Xu has already told us with practical actions that billionaires are actually happier."
"If the density of the battery swap station can really be the same as that of the gas station, then the endurance anxiety is indeed gone, but what if I am afraid that I will suffer from the anxiety of Kang Zong's bankruptcy again?"
"Then it depends on whether everyone is willing to be cut by Mr. Kang."
"Mr. Kang's bankruptcy anxiety? Haha, I'm laughing to death, buddy, you're definitely a true love fan. β
ββ¦β¦β
The topic was quickly drawn to the most sensitive price issue.
On the one hand, everyone is afraid of being cut leeks.
But on the other hand, I was afraid that Mr. Kang would be too kind to everyone, and finally led to bankruptcy......
It's very contradictory.
However, in fact, all of Kangchi's projects so far are actually making money, but the speed of making money cannot keep up with the speed of investment......
He eats the benefits of ultra-low R&D costs, and distributes this benefit to all consumers.
As for whether this will be a slight 'dumping' attribute, it will hit other companies and institutions, in fact, Kangchi has also thought about it before.
First of all, most of the cakes he grabbed before were foreign capital, although there are people in China in research and development of silicon wafers and lithography machines, they are basically supported by subsidies.
Moreover, the EUV lithography machine is done, and the energy and funds can also be invested in more advanced and cutting-edge research fields such as quantum chips.
As for nano batteries.
He has tried the limits of this thing, and if others still study it, it will be a waste of time and energy, so it is better to drive them to other research fields.
For example, CATL's scientific research team is now engaged in mass production experiments of high-end solid-state lithium batteries.
In the future, they can also work on lithium-sulfur batteries, and even nuclear batteries, among others.
There are too many technology trees that need to be pointed, and it is impossible for Kangchi to light up all the technology trees alone.
There are always things that he can't take care of, and someone needs to study them.
Therefore, from a macro perspective, there is no problem of grabbing the jobs of scientific researchers.
Even scientific researchers and companies themselves are the objects of Kangchi's dividends.
Because they are also ordinary consumers, if they buy a car in the future, or even take a bus, call an online car-hailing service, etc., they can also enjoy the dividends brought by sodium batteries.
"In order to cooperate with the battery swap mode, we at Datang Heavy Industries have finally formulated five specifications of battery packs and general interface types after joint research and discussion with CATL's R&D team."
γ80KWhγ120KWhγ200KWhγ400KWhγ800KWhγ
Kangchi pointed to the picture of the battery pack on the screen and continued to explain:
"Our battery swap station will support the above five battery packs in the future, including battery packs of 200KWh and above, and the main service objects are medium and large electric passenger and trucks."
"Later, we will update the specific battery pack parameters and interface data to the official website of Datang Heavy Industries, so that major domestic car companies can download and consult, and we also welcome major car companies to cooperate with Datang Heavy Industries to launch more and richer sodium battery swap models to the market."
Hearing this, everyone finally noticed.
It turns out that Kangchi is in the battery link, and the target of the release is not only ordinary consumers, but also other car companies!
even
Even the medium- and large-sized electric vans that may appear in the future have been taken into account.
However, through the scale of investment in battery swap stations, we know how big Kangchi's ambitions are.
It is actually a bit unreasonable to build so many battery swap stations and not exhaust all types of cars.
It can also be seen from the active disclosure of battery pack parameters and interface data that Kangchi is completely open to the door, warmly welcoming everyone to work together to create a new era of electric vehicles, and does not think about using the advantages of battery swap stations and sodium batteries to drive other car companies away.
It's quite pleasing.
Except for a few car companies like BYD, which have their own battery factories, most of the other new energy car companies that need to purchase battery packs are relieved at this moment.
What they are most afraid of is that Kangchi will turn this sodium battery into his exclusive secret recipe, so that they will not have to play at all in the future......
However, whether to join the camp of battery replacement depends on the acceptance of this model by consumers and the specific cooperation method with Datang Heavy Industries.
They were going to wait and see for a while.
Just when the major car companies were thinking about it, Kangchi continued to explain to everyone:
"What I want to focus on here is the 80KWh battery pack that will be installed on the Guizhen car in the future, and according to the power consumption of 12Kwh per 100 kilometers in the CLTC test, it can bring a range of 666KM to Guizhen."
"But in fact, we also know that the CLTC test is under a more ideal situation, in normal driving, because of seasonal changes, driving habits and other reasons, the actual battery life of traditional liquid lithium batteries is usually 5-7% off on the basis of CLTC, especially in the case of extremely low temperatures, and may not even be half."
"This aspect of the solid-state sodium-ion battery will also be affected, but the impact is much smaller, according to our normal driving measurement, its actual range is between 530-640, of which the mileage of 530 is the measured data running on the mountain road of minus 15 degrees in the Daxing'an Mountains."
"I believe that through such a detailed explanation, everyone has a clear understanding of the car and battery products we released this time, and the next thing I want to say is the price issue that everyone is most concerned about."
[80KWh battery pack, 400 yuan/month]
Looking at the text that appeared on the screen, netizens suddenly started a new round of heated discussions.
Everyone's first reaction is to spend 400 yuan a month to rent a battery, and they can add more than a tank of oil!
However, those who have bought or learned about electric cars must know that this price is definitely a huge fragrance for pure electric vehicles.
"Popular science, with the current level of lithium battery technology, the service life of electric vehicles is actually only 3-5 years, when the battery capacity drops to 80%, the mileage will drop significantly, 70% of the time is basically scrapped, and the cost of replacing the battery, accounting for at least 40% of the cost of the whole vehicle, is basically to buy half a car."
", it means that 200,000 pure electric cars, 80,000 are battery money? If the car and electricity are separated, the body is actually only worth 120,000? β
"Uh, buddy, you don't think 120,000 is cheap, do you?"
"Electric cars do not have engines and gearboxes, if in addition to the battery, the motor and chassis are worth a little money, if you don't install a color TV sofa in the car, car companies are embarrassed to sell you 120,000 ......"
"Damn, no wonder."
"Then if you calculate it in the past 5 years, the 80-degree battery pack of Mr. Quite Kang only sold for 24,000?"
"If it is a traditional lithium battery, it can indeed be calculated like this, but you didn't hear Mr. Kang just say that the theoretical cycle life of this sodium battery is as high as 5,000 times, if you really have this life, there is no problem with it for ten years, and the manufacturing cost of nano batteries is cheaper than lithium batteries, it is estimated that this is the reason why Mr. Kang's price is so low......"
"I am a NIO battery swap owner, in fact, the battery swap mode is very good, and I never have to worry about the problem of battery scrapping, but the battery pack of NIO is a bit expensive, 880 yuan per month."
"Then don't hurry up @ Mr. Li, change the battery pack of Datang Heavy Industries!"
ββ¦β¦β
In the process of discussion among netizens, Kangchi also completed the explanation of the battery pack leasing plan.
First of all, he promised that the health of the batteries used by every customer is above 90%, and less than 90% will only be used for energy storage.
In terms of battery replacement costs, the actual amount of electricity is used to calculate.
For example, if the battery swap user still has 30 kWh of electricity in the car, and the health of the battery is only 95%, and the 76 kWh of electricity is rushed, it will be calculated according to the actual 46 kWh.
As for the electricity price, it is calculated according to twice the local average electricity price, which is about 1.2 yuan/kWh.
At the same time, a service fee of 10 yuan will be charged for each battery replacement.
It is equivalent to each battery replacement, and the price is between 10-106 yuan.
Unless the user often replaces the battery when the battery is high, under normal circumstances, the cost of use per kilometer will not exceed 0.2 yuan, which is definitely much cheaper than fuel vehicles.
After all, if you change the electricity once, you will add oil once, and the maximum oil is not more than 106 yuan, where do you add it?
However, in the future, all battery swap vehicles that use Datang Heavy Industries' battery packs will no longer support users to charge themselves.
Therefore, for new energy vehicle owners who have the conditions to install charging piles in their own homes and charge them in the valley every time, the cost of use may be a little higher.
In general, in terms of comprehensive use cost, even if the rent of the battery is added, according to the average monthly drive of Huaguo Automobile 1,000 kilometers and the average fuel vehicle of 0.5 yuan per kilometer, the plan given by Kangchi has basically achieved the same price of oil and electricity.
And on the basis of a thousand kilometers per month, the more you drive, the more cost-effective.
In fact, Kangchi formulated the rent policy at the beginning, to a large extent, not because he was afraid that the user car would drive too much and use the battery frequently, but because he was afraid that the zombie car would occupy the pit and not, wasting battery resources, so it set a minimum monthly cost of 400.
In terms of price, in addition to the cost of use, the same price of oil and electricity, after removing 40% of the battery cost of electric vehicles, the naked price of electric vehicles can also be cheaper than fuel vehicles of the same level!
It wasn't until after the release of the battery and battery swap mode that Kangchi finally announced the price of the true-to-truth:
[The national unified price of the naked car: 59999]!
"it!"
"The naked car is less than 60,000?!"
"I feel that the truth is more like an electric version of the Arrizo 8, removing the engine and gearbox, replacing the motor, it stands to reason that it should be sold for at least 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, right?"
"The key is that it will be very expensive to use in the future!"
"What an industrial miracle!"
"Mr. Kang: Let me show you what it means to really make friends!"
β666οΌβ
"At this price, even less than 30,000 yuan, the real endurance of only 100 kilometers of Hongguang MINI is called an expert!"
"I think the biggest problem of new energy vehicles is actually the value retention rate, driving two years and losing half of the car, who can withstand it, but with the real price + battery replacement mode, I am worried about the value retention rate at all!"
"EMM~ In fact, the fuel version of the Sylphy, Langyi, and Corolla are only a little more than 7 or 80,000 yuan, and they don't have batteries when they come to life, and they have to spend hundreds of dollars to rent batteries every month, and they don't feel much cheaper."
"If you like R series cars, why are you watching Mr. Kang's live broadcast!?"
"Hehe,Although the configuration of the truth is low,But there are basically all that should be there,It is recommended to go and see how far the low-profile Xuanyi has been reduced,Fabric seats,There is no central control screen,Halogen lamp...... In particular, the body materials of the iron car are not at the same level as the truth. β
ββ¦β¦β
I don't know if someone deliberately brings the rhythm, or if I really think that domestic cars should be sold at the price of cabbage, when most netizens feel that this price is already the conscience of heaven and earth, there are still people who stand up and question that this price is not cheap.
However, in the tens of millions of real audiences, with only a negligible number of sailors, the difficulty of bringing the rhythm can be imagined, and this very small number of voices was quickly drowned in the dense barrage tide, and not even a wave came out.
