The First Smart Charging and Swapping Demonstration Area for Electric Vehicles Completed in Jiangsu, China

Published: Mar 6, 2024 09:21
The first smart charging and swapping demonstration area for electric vehicles in China has been completed on March 4th in Jiangsu. Through the upgrade and transformation of the hardware and software of the charging infrastructure, the demonstration area achieves efficient interaction among new energy vehicles, charging and swapping stations, and the urban power grid, enhancing the efficiency of the use of charging piles. This demonstration area covers three cities in Jiangsu - Suzhou, Wuxi, and Changzhou, and will construct 21 new charging and swapping stations with nearly 300 charging piles. With the support of intelligent algorithms, the system comprehensively assesses the actual status of the charging spots, charging prices, and waiting times, and then sends the optimal charging solution to the vehicle owners. It is estimated that the average monthly waiting time for charging in the demonstration area can be reduced by nearly 50% for vehicle owners.

1 Billion m²/Year Dry-Process Separator Project For Lithium/Sodium Batteries Lands In Nanning
Recently, Nanning Urban Construction Investment Group and Huahui New Material Technology Co., Ltd. signed an agreement for the lithium/sodium battery dry-process separator intelligent manufacturing project. The total investment for the project is approximately 500 million yuan. It plans to build a new production line with an annual capacity of 1 billion square meters of dry-process separators for lithium/sodium batteries. The project will introduce Guangxi's first new-generation dry-process uniaxial stretching and 4.2-meter-wide biaxial stretching battery separator production line. It is expected that upon reaching full capacity, the annual output value will be approximately 800 million yuan, creating 170 jobs, and establishing the first battery base film production base in Guangxi.
