BYD Power Battery project is one of the ten leading industrial projects. Changsha Findreams Battery, located in Ningxiang High-tech Zone, is one of BYD’s important blade battery production bases.
Ningxiang takes Changsha Findreams Battery as the leader, focuses on expanding the industrial chains of advanced energy storage materials, and contributes to promoting the construction of advanced energy storage material industrial cluster in Changsha City.

Changsha Findreams has 4 production lines, which are distributed in different floors of the first and second plant. In the huge workshop, there are only several workers who are monitoring the production processes via computer screens. In the performance inspection workshop, four robots lift each battery to another production line after completing packaging.

Findreams Battery is an independent entity of BYD Group, and Changsha Findreams is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Findreams Battery. The company boasts the world’s first six-generation production line which can realize the automation and informatization via robots and information systems, and the interaction of the hardware and software.

High automation and precision have been achieved in battery batching, coating, rolling, welding, liquid injection, testing, etc. The company is committed to building the world’s most advanced power battery production line and upgrading the battery industry.

“Each production line makes a battery in 6 seconds.” A staff said that the 4 production lines which are under further improvements can produce nearly 50,000 batteries a day. And the output value is expected to reach 3 billion yuan this year and 10 billion yuan next year.

Compared with traditional batteries, the “blade battery” has competitive edges in safety, endurance and life, volumetric energy density and discharge.

Specifically, its volume utilization rate has increased by 50%, and its endurance is comparable to that of high-energy ternary lithium batteries. The battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in 20 minutes, and can be recharged more than 5,000 times.

Data from BYD show that the company has sold 79,037 passenger vehicles this September, a year-on-year increase of 93.2% and a month-on-month increase of 16.9%. Among them, 70,022 new energy passenger vehicles were sold, a year-on-year growth of 276.4%. In the third quarter, the company sold more than 200,000 vehicles.

“The company is now comprehensively strengthening and improving the allocation of resources such as technology, equipment and staff, and enhancing efficiency and increasing production. By 2022, the company will realize the full production of 10GWh and the annual output value will reach 10 billion yuan.

In the future, the company’s products will be further extended to 3C battery, energy storage battery and echelon utilization. It will increase efforts to strengthen industrial chains of advanced storage energy materials, create more jobs, and contribute to green environmental protection for the society,” said the head of the company.

As a leading enterprise of advanced energy storage materials, Changsha Findreams has an obvious driving effect on the industrial chain. Now, the company cooperates with local enterprises in positive and negative materials, membrane and other raw materials, and attracts more enterprises to settle in Ningxiang.

“As the only park in Hunan that has a complete closed-loop industrial chain of lithium batteries, Changsha Findreams makes the advanced energy storage material industrial chain even stronger.” said the head of Ningxiang High-tech Zone.
