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.

[CATL's Wu Kai: Sodium-ion mass production this year, lithium-air next]

Wu Kai, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and chief scientist of CATL, said at the 2026 Equipment Power Forum that the company will achieve mass production of a series of sodium-ion battery products this year. Compared with lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries have abundant raw material resources and lower costs. Looking ahead, lithium-air batteries will be CATL's future direction. Wu Kai explained that lithium-air batteries use lithium as the negative electrode and oxygen from the air as the positive electrode reactant, offering ultra-high theoretical energy density and representing the next global battleground for next-generation batteries.
