It is reported that Xiangyang BYD Industrial Park will be an important new energy vehicle industry chain project under BYD. Five major projects will be built, such as new energy vehicle factory, auto parts factory, power battery factory, power battery parts factory and zero-carbon park.

On the occasion of the Lunar New year, BYD's latest industrial base has officially landed, and its own new energy territory has been continuously expanded and improved.

On the afternoon of January 24, Ying Yong, secretary of the Hubei Provincial CPC Committee, and Wang Zhonglin, deputy secretary of the Hubei Provincial CPC Committee and governor, had a discussion with Wang Chuanfu, chairman of BYD, and witnessed the signing of a strategic cooperation framework agreement between Xiangyang and BYD Co., Ltd.

It is reported that Xiangyang BYD Industrial Park will be an important new energy vehicle industry chain project under BYD. Five major projects will be built, such as new energy vehicle factory, auto parts factory, power battery factory, power battery parts factory and zero-carbon park. The project will be built in three phases, with a total investment of 10 billion yuan in the first phase, and the total investment in the third phase is expected to exceed 18 billion yuan.

The rumor has settled.

Vike Lithium noted that before BYD signed the agreement with Xiangyang City, relevant information spread long ago. On January 11, Xiangyang Public Resources Trading Network issued a bidding notice for the land formation project of BYD power battery project. However, on January 13, just two days later, Xiangyang Public Resources Trading Network issued a new announcement, saying that "due to major changes in this project, this tender has been terminated." If you need to reorganize the bidding, it will be announced separately in Hubei Public Resources Trading Electronic Service system and Xiangyang Public Resources Trading Network. "

The tender was terminated just two days after the tender announcement was issued, sparking a wave of speculation at the time. Now, the news that BYD is building an industrial park in Xiangyang is down to earth. According to the tender notice deleted by Xiangyang Public Resources Trading Network, BYD Xiangyang factory project is located in Shenzhen Industrial Park, Xiangyang High-tech Zone.

According to previous news, BYD's project in Xiangyang includes at least 300000 vehicle manufacturing and 30GWh blade battery production capacity.

It is worth noting that according to the latest disclosure of Hubei Daily, in addition to BYD Xiangyang Industrial Park, in the first quarter Xiangyang will also start construction of the whole industrial chain of Chuanfa dragon python iron phosphate with an investment of 8.5 billion, the China Electric Power New Energy Automobile Industrial Park with an investment of 5 billion, and the "giant" projects such as lithium iron phosphate and titanium industry chain of Longbai Group with an investment of 3 billion.

Deploy 17 power battery bases

At present, including Xiangyang base, BYD has completed or planned to build 17 production bases, with a total production capacity far exceeding that of 400GWh.

Among them, the completed bases are Qinghai Xining (24GWh), Huizhou (2GWh), Shenzhen Pingshan (14GWh), Chongqing Bishan (45GWh), Xi'an Hi-tech (50GWh), Changsha Ningxiang (20GWh), Guizhou Guiyang (20GWh) and Anhui Bengbu (20GWh).

In 2021, BYD also expanded eight production bases, including Jinan in Shandong, Wuwei in Anhui, Yancheng in Jiangsu, Wuhan in Hubei, Shengzhou in Shaoxing, Ningbo in Zhejiang, Chuzhou in Anhui and Fuzhou in Jiangxi, with a total new production capacity of 205GWh. Among them, the first phase of the Chuzhou project in Anhui Province is expected to be put into production in May this year, with a production capacity expected to be 10GWh.

In addition, BYD also has a joint venture with Changan to build 10GWhh, as well as a production base on the way with FAW.

Prior to January 15, FAW Fudi New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. was established, with Wu Ruijia as its legal representative and registered capital of 1 billion yuan. The company is jointly owned by Fudi Industrial Co., Ltd. (51%), a wholly-owned subsidiary of BYD, and FAW Equity Investment (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. (49%), a wholly-owned subsidiary of China first Automobile Group Co., Ltd.

In terms of management structure, Li Hongjian, vice president of FAW Group Research and Development Institute and director of the Institute of Innovation and Technology, was appointed chairman, and he long, chairman of Fudi Battery, served as vice chairman.

It is reported that the two sides will take the joint venture company as the main body to build a strategic base for power batteries of new energy vehicles in Northeast China. The factory adopts industrial 4.0standard and is built in three phases. After reaching production, the factory will achieve the power battery capacity of 45GWh per year, and will provide safe and long-lasting blade batteries for more than 1 million vehicles.

2022 full acceleration

All along, BYD has been adhering to the purpose of all-round development, the business layout is also around the automobile, battery, semiconductor three aspects, has formed a tripod situation.

In 2022, BYD filled up the "firewood" under Dingxia, making the business layout more "boiling".

In the automotive sector, from the capacity that BYD has already laid out, it will reach 3.9 million vehicles by 2023. In 2021, BYD produced and sold 607000 and 604000 vehicles, with a market share of 17.2%. With regard to the 2022 sales target, BYD revealed at the exchange meeting last year that delivery is expected to reach 1.5 million vehicles in 2022.
