CATL, first, “zero carbon” electrical networks It plans to meet the energy needs of huge areas such as cities or large data centers by developing and managing it. Zeng said this market will be driven by the company’s electric vehicle battery business, which currently has a 37 percent global market share.ten times biggerHe states that it has potential.
The second important step will radically change the automotive industry.”panshiA modular electric vehicle platform called “”. This platform has an integrated long-range battery system and reduces the costs of electric vehicle development. from billions of dollars to just 10 million dollars It can drop up to . This innovation has the potential to democratize the industry by eliminating barriers to entry into the electric vehicle market. Zeng says that with this platform, it will be possible for a niche automobile company that can make money by selling 10,000 vehicles a year.
“We’re not trying to build a car. Never. But we are trying to make everything ready for automakers.” Zeng said that CATL could even supply a 3D printed body for the car.
The company is currently developing pilot projects with CMOC Group, including a significant installation in the Democratic Republic of Congo and a larger-scale initiative involving offshore wind turbines in China’s Hainan province.
The “Panshi” electric vehicle platform represents an equally ambitious technological leap. The system integrates a battery capable of providing a range of more than 800 kilometers into a protective chassis design. The company uses this technology Porsche and has introduced it to investors in the United Arab Emirates, but does not plan to produce its own vehicles. By continuing its role as a technology provider, CATL aims to offer innovative solutions to other brands in the industry.
On the other hand, the company is in Spain Stellar While it is finalizing plans to establish a joint battery factory with the company, its factory in Hungary is expected to become profitable by 2025-2026. solid state batteries CATL, which works with over 1,000 researchers, 2027’de aims to bring this technology to the market. But Zeng thinks sodium-ion batteries offer more potential. The abundant availability and safe nature of sodium make this technology an attractive alternative in terms of cost and safety.
