Yadea Launches World's First Sodium-ion Battery Swap Mode in Shenzhen Pilot Program

Published: Mar 21, 2024 20:27
As the main organizer of the event, Yadea took a "leading" stance, spearheading the global race once again: with research and technology in sodium-ion batteries far ahead of the rest of the world; pioneering the global introduction of a universally-applied "swap instead of charge" model for sodium-ion batteries, leading the industry; and achieving leading-level customer recognition. The initiative received unanimous praise and high acclaim from Shenzhen Municipality, mainstream media, the Shenzhen Electric Bicycle Industry Association, Meituan, and a vast number of users.

On March 20th, the "Shenzhen Electric Delivery Bikes Sodium-ion Battery Swap Pilot Program Launch Event," co-hosted by Yadea and Meituan and strongly supported by Shenzhen Municipality, was grandly held in Longhua District, Shenzhen. The successful execution of this event witnessed the profound transformation of the ecosystem for short-to-medium-distance commutes in the future, marking a significant step forward in the innovative transition to the "sodium battery swap mode" for electric two-wheelers.

Cost Push or Supply-Demand Restructuring?—The Real Logic Behind Iron Phosphate Price Increases in April
Iron phosphate negotiations in April were deadlocked, with offers hitting 13,000 yuan/mt. The price surge appeared raw-material driven, but in fact reflected pricing power shifting upstream after a reversal in supply-demand fundamentals. Downstream buyers cited “cost increases” to push back, yet conveniently forgot the upstream losses quietly absorbed over the past three years. This was never about simple cost pass-through—it was a restructuring of profit distribution across the chain.

February 2026 coincided with the Chinese New Year holiday. Affected by holiday factors, production pace across core segments of China’s sodium-ion battery industry generally slowed, showing an “off-season reset” trend. From cathodes, anodes, and electrolyte to battery cells and end-users, production across all segments declined MoM to varying degrees, while YoY still maintained a certain degree of growth resilience.
