Jiana Energy's Subsidiary Files Sodium-ion Battery Anode Project for Expansion

Published: Apr 28, 2026 15:04

Recently, Jiana Energy's subsidiary Chibi Luoneng New Energy completed the filing for its sodium-ion battery biomass hard carbon anode project. With a total investment of 17 million yuan, the project will renovate 3,500 m² of factory space and is expected to produce 3,000 mt of sodium-ion battery biomass hard carbon anode annually, with construction planned to commence in May.

Previously, Jiana Energy had established a 1,200 mt purified hard carbon pilot project in Huangshi. Combined with the launch of the Chibi project, the company's hard carbon anode capacity footprint is further expanding. Leveraging its iron-based polyanion cathode plus biomass hard carbon anode technology route, Jiana Energy continues to enhance its upstream and downstream sodium-ion battery industry chain, facilitating cost reduction and accelerating the scaling and industrialisation of the sodium-ion battery industry chain.

Wu Kai, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and chief scientist of CATL, said at the 2026 Equipment Power Forum that the company will achieve mass production of a series of sodium-ion battery products this year. Compared with lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries have abundant raw material resources and lower costs. Looking ahead, lithium-air batteries will be CATL's future direction. Wu Kai explained that lithium-air batteries use lithium as the negative electrode and oxygen from the air as the positive electrode reactant, offering ultra-high theoretical energy density and representing the next global battleground for next-generation batteries.
