Published: Mar 24, 2026 11:56

On March 17, Ni Zhen, Party Secretary and Chairman of China Energy Engineering Corporation, held talks at the company headquarters with Yang Bo, Secretary of the Fangshan District Committee of Beijing, and Di Zhixin, Deputy Secretary of the District Committee and District Mayor. The two sides conducted in-depth exchanges on deepening practical cooperation in hydrogen energy, energy storage, water conservancy, computing-power and electricity coordination, urban renewal, and other fields, and jointly discussed coordinated development.

Ni Zhen welcomed the Fangshan delegation on its visit, thanked the district committee and district government for their long-term support, and introduced the achievements of China Energy Engineering Corporation's reform and development. He pointed out that, based on its core businesses in energy and power and water conservancy, China Energy Engineering Corporation focused on major tracks such as new energy and new-type infrastructure, promoted the integration of scientific and technological innovation with industrial innovation, and contributed to building China into a strong energy country. The two sides already had a solid foundation for cooperation and fruitful results, and are expected to focus on the construction of a new-type energy system and power system, deepen cooperation in energy planning and consulting, computing-power and electricity coordination, water conservancy construction, scientific and technological innovation, and other fields, and work together to serve Chinese modernization.

Yang Bo thanked China Energy Engineering Corporation for its contributions to Fangshan's development and introduced the current state of regional development. He said that Fangshan District closely adhered to its positioning as a "renowned area integrating science, education and culture, and a new city for new-quality intelligent manufacturing industries," focusing on leading industries such as green energy and new materials, and deeply integrating into the overall development of the capital metropolitan area and the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. As a main force in energy construction, China Energy Engineering Corporation has strong comprehensive capabilities, and both sides are expected to deepen cooperation in hydrogen energy, energy storage, new energy, urban renewal, equipment manufacturing, and other fields, promote the implementation of more demonstration projects, and Fangshan District will also make every effort to support the development of China Energy Engineering Corporation within its jurisdiction.

Gao Wujun, Zhang Qi, and Wang Chunnian, Deputy District Mayors of Fangshan District; Xu Lu, Member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee and Deputy General Manager of China Energy Engineering Corporation; Pei Aiguo, Chief Engineer and General Manager of the Technology, Information and Equipment Business Division; and heads of relevant units from both sides attended the talks.

[SMM Weekly Review] Battery Cells for Energy Storage in the Second-Life Application Market Remained in Undersupply, with Structural Price Increases, 2026.03.16-2026.03.19
This week, the second-life battery market showed clear structural divergence. On the cost side, although lithium carbonate prices saw a temporary uptick this week, they trended downward overall; nickel sulphate prices edged down slightly, while cobalt sulphate prices remained stable. The cost side was mainly affected by fluctuations in lithium carbonate prices. On the supply side, driven by terminal energy storage demand, inventories of new battery cells at battery cell manufacturers were critically low, and the supply of Grade A battery cells was heavily diverted, causing supply in the second-life battery market to remain tight. On the demand side, 280Ah and 314Ah energy storage battery cells were subject to concentrated procurement in the market, resulting in severe shortages and noticeably rising prices. Meanwhile, demand in the EV sector remained weak, inventory was relatively sufficient, and second-life power battery cell prices stayed stable.

[SMM Weekly Review] Energy Storage Demand Gained Momentum, and Prices of Cascaded Grade B LFP Rose First, 2026.03.09-2026.03.12
This week, prices for some Grade-B battery cells in the second-life battery market rose. Cost side, lithium carbonate prices fluctuated more sharply this week and showed an overall upward trend, directly pushing up battery cell production costs; nickel sulphate prices edged up, while cobalt sulphate prices remained stable, providing mild support on the cost side and lifting overall cost pressure somewhat. Supply side, the market was clearly boosted by energy storage demand, enterprises showed relatively strong willingness to sell, and circulating supply was steadily released; coupled with rising lithium carbonate prices, enterprises' expectations for higher costs strengthened, and overall pricing sentiment remained firm to slightly stronger. Demand side, demand for second-life Grade-B battery cells recovered significantly, mainly driven by the energy storage market, as downstream energy storage projects commenced and supporting demand continued to be released, noticeably boosting procurement enthusiasm.
