[4.1 Lithium Express] BYD invests in the establishment of a mining company | Sinorama Technology works with Shanghai Railway to build a waste battery recycling system.

[BYD invested in the establishment of a mining company with a registered capital of 20 million] according to Tianyan check, Sichuan Ludi Mining Co., Ltd. was recently established with a legal representative of Zhu Jin and a registered capital of 20 million yuan. the scope of business includes mining of mineral resources (non-coal mines); geological exploration of metal and non-metallic mineral resources; research and development of emerging energy technologies. Shareholder information shows that the company is jointly owned by Sichuan Road and Bridge Construction Group Co., Ltd., and BYD Automotive Industry Co., Ltd.

[long-term Lithium Science: maintaining the state of full production and full sales can effectively transmit the cost pressure downstream] long-term Lithium Science said in a survey conducted by an institution a few days ago that the current demand for orders is very strong, maintaining the state of full production and full sales. The company's product sales price adopts the mode of raw material cost + processing fee, which can effectively reflect the increase of raw materials in the product price and maintain the company's processing profit at a reasonable level. In addition, it is expected to reach 120000 tons of ternary cathode materials and 60, 000 tons of lithium iron phosphate cathode materials by the end of 2022.

[Chinese researchers develop high voltage electrolyte to build high energy density lithium battery system] it is learned from Qingdao Institute of Biological Energy and process of Chinese Academy of Sciences that the research group of advanced energy storage materials and technology of this institute, under the leadership of researcher Wu Jianfei, has recently made key progress in the development and application of high voltage electrolyte system, and the relevant research results have recently been published in the international journal Chemical Engineering Journal. The research team developed a new type of high voltage fluorinated electrolyte system, which increased the working voltage of NCM811 cathode material from 4.2V to 4.6V, expanded the upper limit and application range of ternary system, broke through the obstacles such as serious capacity attenuation of high nickel ternary cathode under high voltage, and provided a new idea and way for the design and development of high energy density lithium ion battery.

[SK On may start to develop square battery trial production line this year.] according to South Korean media reports, industry insiders revealed that SK On, a Korean lithium TV university, has completed the research on square battery equipment and production line, and the company plans to set up a trial production line within this year, after which it will be put into mass production. Previously, SK On focused on the production of soft-package batteries.

[Guanghua Science and Technology: sign strategic cooperation agreement with ground Railway to build waste power battery recycling system] Guanghua Science and Technology announcement, signed a strategic cooperation agreement with ground Railway Rental car (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., both sides are committed to the construction of waste power battery recycling system, through the legal recycling, disassembly and remanufacturing of waste power batteries to reduce the damage to the environment caused by random abandonment. We will jointly explore the Huaneng integrated service plan for the mileage recovery of operating vehicles, and jointly build a regionally distributed integrated maintenance service station for power batteries of new energy vehicles.

[British official: Tesla's supercharging network will be available to all electric vehicles in the UK within weeks at the earliest.] recently British Transport Secretary Trudy Harrison confirmed that Tesla will open his supercharging network to all British electric vehicle owners "in a few weeks or months". At present, there are about 800 super charging piles on the British market. Sales of electric vehicles in the UK rose sharply last year, with 11.6 per cent of new cars sold in the UK in 2021 and 12.5 per cent of new cars sold in January.
