Fujiang Energy Secures Approval for 148.69M Yuan Sodium-Ion Battery Project, Advancing Geely's Dual-Tech Battery Strategy

Published: Apr 29, 2026 09:23

On April 27, 2026, Fujiang Energy Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Geely Technology Group, received approval from the Tonglu County Development and Reform Bureau for its "High Performance Energy Storage Sodium-Ion Battery Digital Production Line Project," with a total investment of 148.69 million yuan. The project focuses on commercial energy storage scenarios, leveraging AI-driven full-process data integration to build an intelligent sodium-ion battery cell system for energy storage, tailored to long duration energy storage (LDES) requirements.

Fujiang Energy is a core enterprise in Geely's battery segment. The Tonglu base is expected to have 12 GWh of power battery capacity, with LFP production lines already in operation, supplying Geely Galaxy, Zeekr, and other car models. The approval of this sodium-ion battery production line marks Geely's official implementation of a "lithium battery + sodium-ion battery" dual-technology roadmap, enhancing the new energy industrial ecosystem in Tonglu and accelerating sodium-ion battery industrialisation and energy storage market penetration.
