CleanTechnica reader Amos Batto caught some very attention-grabbing notes on Chery’s solid-state batteries. Following up on our story concerning the firm creating the primary solid-state battery manufacturing facility on the earth (1 GWh of capability), it appeared prudent to publish his remark as a standalone article. We are going to certainly be referencing it sooner or later. Thanks, Amos.

I can’t discover a lot information about these batteries by Anwa New Vitality, however Anwa was beforehand described as engaged on “semi-solid state” batteries. CarNewsChina says: “In keeping with Anwa, the corporate is ready to shorten the battery manufacturing course of from 11 steps to five. This eliminates the processes of baking, compaction, slitting, die-cutting, drying, and liquid injection. Additionally, it includes dry manufacturing of the constructive and adverse electrodes. The result’s a 30% discount in fastened asset funding and a 20% discount in power consumption for manufacturing.”
The truth that Gotion Hello-Tech can also be invested in Anwa New Vitality offers me some confidence that these batteries are legit. They initially stated that the power density would begin at 340 Wh/kg, however now they’re beginning manufacturing at 280 kW/kg, which is the power density of right now’s higher-end standard NMC batteries.
Chery is scaling again its claims of power density. In October, the corporate claimed: “With solid-state batteries, Chery introduced a timeline of reaching an power density of 400 Wh/kg this yr, growing to 600 Wh/kg in 2025, with the primary automobile software occurring in 2026. This might be adopted by preliminary batch manufacturing in 2027. The corporate claims it should give EVs a variety of 1500 km.”
I feel that Chery is now saying it should begin at 280 Wh/kg moderately than 400 Wh/kg reveals that it’s truly planning on doing actual manufacturing.
