This factory will start construction in November 2023, setting an industry speed of "two years of completion and production". The initial annual production capacity will reach 16GWh, and it is planned to gradually expand to 50GWh before 2030, which can meet the battery demand of about 300000 electric vehicles per year. In addition to breakthroughs in scale, the project has also built a diversified shareholder ecosystem - jointly initiated by European innovation energy agency EIT InnoEnergy and Schneider Electric, with Renault Group holding 10% of the shares and becoming a core customer, and industrial capital such as Kaijie and Arkema deeply participating, forming a closed-loop system of "technology research and development+whole vehicle support+supply chain guarantee".Editor/Bian Wenjun
