Will make every effort to build the "Asia Lithium City" - Yichun

Yichun City, Jiangxi Province is rich in lithium resources, accounting for one-fifth of the total available lithium oxide in the country. Relying on the unique advantages of lithium resources, Yichun took the lithium-ion new energy industry as the first industry in the city to attack the industry and vigorously promoted the “Asian Lithium Capital”. It is reported that in 2017, the output value of lithium battery new energy industry in Yichun City is expected to exceed 26 billion yuan.

Far East Foster New Energy Co., Ltd. Phase II investment of 3.8 billion yuan per year 3.8G watt-hour power storage lithium battery research and industrialization project has started construction; Ziwei Technology is preparing for the main board listing and planning 10,000 tons capacity expansion project Sublimation Technology 16 lithium iron phosphate cathode material production line is full of horsepower, speeding up production, the second phase of the project is intensifying construction... Walking in the industrial park of Yichun City, there are scenes of industrial projects that are booming everywhere.

At present, Yichun City has 34 large-scale lithium-ion enterprises, 13 enterprises with tax revenues of 10 million yuan, and 1 enterprise with over 100 million yuan. It has cultivated Far East Foster, Jiangte Electric, Ziwei Technology, and Lianli Lithium Industry and a group of companies with strong influence in China. From the selection of lithium ore raw materials to battery-grade lithium carbonate, battery materials, to lithium-ion batteries and lithium-ion products, Yichun City has basically formed a relatively complete lithium-ion new energy industry chain.

The power and environment of innovation is the key to determining whether the industry will eventually occupy the commanding heights. In recent years, Yichun City has actively built a platform to attract talents, support lithium-ion new energy enterprises to develop new technologies and new products, and guide enterprises to strengthen cooperation with central enterprises, universities, and research institutes to jointly carry out common technical research.

Yichun City has maintained close contact with a number of domestic and foreign universities and research institutes such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and White State University, and established a library of lithium energy industry experts. At the same time, the Far East Foster, the Jiangte Electric Lithium New Energy Academician Workstation and the Far East Foster Postdoctoral Research Station were established. Today, Yichun Lithium New Energy Industry has one national engineering research center, six provincial engineering technology research centers, two provincial science and technology innovation teams, three provincial enterprise technology centers, and 15 municipal engineering technology research centers. There are 14 national high-tech enterprises.

Yichun City proposed to strive to achieve 100 billion yuan in revenue from the main business of lithium-ion new energy industry by the end of 2020, and to transform the central city into an advanced manufacturing base for new materials and new energy in the western Yunnan region.
