Fuding Times' 5th Factory Breaks Ground, Boosting Lithium-Ion Battery Industry to RMB100 Billion Mark and Fueling Ningde's 'Trillion-Dollar Era' Push

Published: Oct 21, 2024 20:37

On October 21, the construction of the 5th factory of Fuding Times officially commenced, marking a new step forward for the development of Fuding's lithium-ion battery new energy industry with a value of RMB100 billion, and fully integrating into the strategic deployment of Ningde's "Trillion-Dollar Era", becoming an important part of building Ningde into the "World's Lithium Battery Capital" and a globally renowned industrial city.

The lithium-ion battery production base project of Fuding Times, located in Qianqi Town, Fuding City, is the largest single project that CATL has deployed globally so far, with an output value exceeding RMB100 billion. It encompasses Factories 1 to 5, occupying an area of 2,932 acres, including Cell Factories 1 to 3 and Super Cell Factories 4 and 5. The first phase has a total construction area of 19 million square meters, with four cell factories, three module factories, and supporting facilities such as houses, warehouses, canteens, and dormitories, creating approximately 10,000 jobs.

[SMM Energy Storage Battery Cell Market Weekly Review 9.3] Tight copper foil supply constrains September production schedules, energy storage battery cell prices remain firm
[SMM Analysis] Affected by tight copper foil supply and slower-than-expected capacity ramp-up for large-capacity battery cells, China and global energy storage battery cell production growth in September is expected to slow to 4.09% and 4.25% MoM, respectively, but this does not indicate weakening end-use demand. Supply-demand conditions for energy storage battery cells remain tight, with 314Ah battery cell prices holding steady. Shipments are expected to rise steadily going forward, with prices continuing their stable-to-higher trend.

CATL Chairman: China's NEV Sales Surpass 7.4M in H1, Emphasizes Precision in Battery Production
CATL Chairman Zeng Yuqun, in a video address to the 2026 World Power Battery Conference, said that in H1 this year, China's NEV sales exceeded 7.4 million units, with over 600 new models launched, averaging nearly three per day. Everyone is competing on speed, specifications, and price, and development cycles are getting shorter. He noted that power batteries require extremely high precision and have very low tolerance for error. In mass production, all small issues are magnified many times over, so every process and every parameter must be strictly controlled from the design stage, anomalies must be identified in advance, and there must be zero tolerance for quality problems.
