A new energy industry landmark is rising in the industrial park of Feicheng, Shandong. Recently, the People's Government of Feicheng City signed a cooperation agreement with Pengcheng Infinite New Energy Co., Ltd. and Ruineng Electric Power Co., Ltd. for the production of 27GWh battery cells. The implementation of this major project marks a crucial step for Feicheng in the new energy storage track.

From lithium ore to battery recycling

Feicheng City is based on a system concept and chain thinking, anchoring the strategic emerging industry track of new battery electrode materials and continuously making efforts to promote the formation of a lithium ore processing positive and negative electrode materials battery assembly recycling full life cycle industrial chain.

Upstream, relying on chain leading enterprises such as Ruifu Lithium, to achieve large-scale production capacity of lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide; Accelerate the production and research and development of key battery materials such as carbon coated aluminum foil and lithium battery cathode materials in the midstream; The downstream battery component assembly process relies on chain leading enterprises such as 014 Advanced Materials and Weichai New Energy to attract relevant manufacturers to settle down; The recycling process attracts projects such as Shandong Huajin and Fengrong New Materials to achieve the full resource and factor recycling of waste lithium batteries.

At present, Feicheng has formed a full industry chain centered on two billion dollar industries of lithium and sodium batteries, gathering 137 lithium and sodium battery enterprises.

Double wheel drive with large capacity battery cells and sodium batteries

The 27GWh battery cell production project signed this time has a planned total investment of 5.5 billion yuan, focusing on the production of 500Ah+high-capacity battery cells specifically for energy storage. It adopts industry-leading high-speed automation production lines to achieve full process coverage of battery cell front and rear processes.

Sodium ion batteries have significant advantages in low-temperature performance, safety, and cost, making them particularly suitable for the energy storage market. Based on the foundation of sodium and lithium batteries, as well as abundant underground salt cavern resources, Feicheng is accelerating the development of energy storage industry. In 2024, Feicheng's new energy industry achieved an output value of 8.08 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 7.7%.

Eight National First Breakthroughs

Feicheng has successfully become a pilot city for green and low-carbon energy transformation in Shandong Province and a key area for advanced compressed air energy storage in central Shandong. The new type of energy storage has successfully created 8 national firsts in energy storage fields, including the capacity of completed power stations and single units under construction.
