SHANGHAI, Jul 13 (SMM) — The overall performance of new energy car manufacturers is relatively good in June. Sales of NIO, Xiaopeng and Li Auto have refreshed their monthly sales records. NIO sold 8,083 new energy vehicles in June, which is the first breakthrough of 8,000 mark, an increase of 20.4% on the month. Sales of Li Auto automobile rebounded in June and stood at 7,713 cars, an increase of 78.4% on the month, mainly due to the remodeled models, which drove demand. Xiaopeng sold 6,565 vehicles in June, of which the P7 performed well with 4,730 vehicles, ranking second in sales by new automakers.

According to the semi-annual data, the hierarchy among the new automakers is clear. A total of 41,900 NIO vehicles were sold from January to June. In 2020, NIO only sold 43,700 new energy vehicles, accounting for 96% of NIO’s total sales last year. This exceeded the 30,700 Xiaopeng vehicles and the 30,100 Li Auto vehicles sold. The cumulative sales of Nezha Motors and Leapmotors new energy vehicles from January to June were 21,100 and 13,000 vehicles. Compared with the sales at the beginning of the year, sales rose by 134% and 160% respectively in June, which were much higher than the 12%, 43% and 9% of NIO, Li Auto and Xiaopeng. Sales of Nezha exceeded 4,000 vehicles for three consecutive months. With the launch of Nezha's subsequent new models and the deep exploration of the A00 model by Leapmotor, there are still variables in the new automakers pattern.

PetroChina's First Green Electricity Direct Connection Project Approved in Tarim
On March 12, PetroChina’s Tarim Oilfield “Aksu, Shaya County, Fuman Block PV Green Electricity Direct Connection Project” officially received approval from the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region National Development and Reform Commission, making it PetroChina’s first approved green electricity direct connection project. Located in the Taklamakan Desert south of Shaya County, Aksu Prefecture, Xinjiang, the project is a comprehensive green energy project integrating generation-grid-load-storage. According to the plan, the green electricity direct connection project will build a PV power station with a total installed capacity of 100,000 kW as the source of green power. To ensure stable power supply and reduce the curtailment of PV power generation, an additional 20 MW/80 MWh ESS power station will be added to serve as a super “power bank,” effectively smoothing PV fluctuations and ensuring continuous power supply to the load. Connecting the power supply and the power consumption side will be a planned 2.5-km direct power transmission line and a 110-kV substation.

[Phosphorus Chemical Industry: Wengfu's Wet-Process 85 Phosphoric Acid Rose by 700 yuan/mt Within Half a Month, Pushing Iron Phosphate Production Costs Higher Under Pressure] On March 16, 2026, SMM reported that phosphorus giant Wengfu Group raised the ex-factory price of wet-process 85 phosphoric acid by 200 yuan/mt yesterday. Wengfu implemented a "price adjustment on every 5th" mechanism (the 5th, 15th, and 25th of each month). This marked the second price adjustment in March, bringing the cumulative increase to 700 yuan/mt (it had already increased by 500 yuan/mt on March 5). The continued increases in phosphoric acid prices brought significant cost pressure to new energy enterprises, while the production costs of iron phosphate via the iron-process and sodium-process routes rose by several hundred yuan accordingly.
