Various cutting-edge battery technologies and products are on display at the ongoing 18th China International Battery Fair in south China's Shenzhen City, seeking to boost battery capacity and performance for new energy vehicles and other energy storage applications.
The fair, running from May 13 to 15, is expected to attract over 3,000 exhibitors and more than 350,000 visits.
It brings together leading companies in the industry including Chinese battery manufacturer Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Limited (CATL), covering the entire industry chain from raw materials, equipment to cells, systems and recycling utilization.
"This is a specialized separator designed for negative electrode-less sodium-ion batteries. Its thickness can be as thin as five micrometers. What does that mean? It is one twentieth the thickness of a human hair. At that level of thinness, it can help extend the driving range for new energy vehicles and increase the capacity for energy storage batteries," said Jiao Lingkuan, vice president of Enjet Global Research Institute.
Also showcased at the fair are full-scenario energy storage solutions, featuring large-capacity battery cells, intelligent energy storage systems, and cutting-edge battery technologies.
"This is our 6.25 MWh liquid-cooled container, primarily used for large-scale power storage," said Liu Liang, deputy general manager of the energy storage industry department at REPT BATTERO Energy, a lithium-ion battery manufacturer.
Among the highlights are battery safety testing equipment and solutions at the exhibition.
"We have launched a megawatt-level flash-charging high-power battery testing system, primarily for use by new energy vehicle and energy storage battery manufacturers," said Jiang Liwen, brand manager of RePower, a Shenzhen-based battery manufacturing company.
