On January 23, 2026, the website of the People's Government of Xinhui District, Jiangmen City officially announced that the second phase of the Zhongchuang Aviation Power Battery and Energy Storage System Jiangmen Base project had successfully passed the environmental impact assessment approval, marking the official entry of this large-scale battery project with a total investment of over 10 billion yuan into the construction stage, adding core power to the company's pursuit of the total production capacity target of 500GWh by 2026.

Jiangmen Base Becomes a Strategic Hub

As the largest physical project invested by Jiangmen City in recent years, the second phase of Zhongchuang Aviation Jiangmen Base is located in Fengshan Lake Park of Xinhui Intelligent Manufacturing Industrial Park, covering an area of 420000 square meters, and is led by Zhongchuang Aviation Technology (Jiangmen) Co., Ltd. The project plans to produce a series of 35GWh automotive power lithium batteries annually (approximately 78 million units), which will be widely used in new energy vehicle power batteries and large-scale energy storage systems. After production, it will further improve the supply chain of the new energy industry in the Pearl River Delta region and strengthen the production capacity radiation of China Innovation Aviation in the South China market.

It is worth noting that the Jiangmen base is the core carrier of China Innovation Aviation's "power+energy storage dual drive" strategy. The promotion of the second phase project not only supplements and upgrades the production capacity of the first phase, but also highlights the company's strategic determination to focus on the core track and strengthen regional layout. Based on the geographical advantages and industrial foundation of Jiangmen, the project will achieve efficient collaboration in research and development, production, and supply chain, providing more competitive products and services to global customers.

Consolidate the foundation for long-term development

Behind the rapid implementation of production capacity, the equity cooperation model of China Innovation Aviation Innovation has become a major highlight. The Jiangmen Project Company is jointly established by Zhongchuang Aviation and three levels of state-owned assets in Jiangmen City, Xinhui District, and Jianghai District, with equity ratios of 63.7% and 36.3% respectively. This model draws on the successful experience of state-owned equity investment in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province. Through the cooperation mode of "enterprise led+state-owned asset empowerment", it not only guarantees the financial support and policy coordination of project construction, but also realizes the deep binding of enterprise development and local economy, laying a solid foundation for the long-term stable advancement of the project.

According to the plan, Zhongchuang Aviation will achieve a total production capacity of over 500GWh by 2026 and further leap to a higher order of magnitude by 2030. Liu Jingyu, the chairman of the company, previously stated the strategic goal of "entering the top three in the world". In an interview in 2025, she said, "If the shipment volume can exceed 100GWh this year, China Innovation Airlines will officially enter the first tier of global power batteries. ”

As multiple bases such as Jiangmen, Xinyang, and Portugal are gradually put into operation from 2026 to 2027, the capacity release of China Innovation Airlines will enter a peak period. Relying on the triple advantages of technological innovation, production capacity scale, and global layout, the company is steadily moving towards the global top power battery enterprise camp, and is expected to seize a larger market share in the transformation of the new energy industry, injecting strong momentum into the development of global new energy vehicles and energy storage industries.Editor/Bian Wenjun
