Lithium energy storage market warming Lujin new energy is expected to ship 150 MWh this year

With the heating up of the lithium energy storage market, the new-born company Lujin (hereinafter referred to as "Lujin") is growing rapidly.

"The company is expected to complete 150 MWh shipments this year, focusing on DC system integration. The main markets include domestic, Japan, Australia and Southeast Asia. Lujin, general manager of Zhouhan's new energy company, told High-tech Li-Power that the company focuses on the global high-end lithium battery energy storage market and is currently accelerating production to supply domestic and Japanese markets in bulk.

Zhouhan pointed out that the domestic energy storage market has begun to increase the installed capacity gradually, and the foreign energy storage market has grown rapidly but is basically monopolized by foreign companies such as Samsung, LG and Tesla. Lujin, with the accumulation of Kelu in the energy storage market and LG chemistry in the field of electric core technology, has created world-class first-class energy storage system suppliers and occupied a place in the International energy storage market.

On April 25th, the 2018 High-Industry Lithium Supply Chain Tour Survey Corps entered Lujin New Energy to understand the management of the newly expensive lithium electric storage energy, which is a combination of two major lithium power companies at home and abroad.

As one of the most influential brand activities in the industry, High-tech Li-electric supply chain tour research activities have reached the seventh session. This year, the tour starts from Huannan Station and is expected to take 2 months, spanning 4 regions and 30 + cities, visiting China 50 + mainstream power batteries. enterprise. Use the footsteps to measure the development of the industry, in order to visit the pulse of the industry. This tour was sponsored by Lithium Enterprises such as Aoruite, Wei Tegao, Radium Technology, Xinlonghao, Today International, Tek Technology, and Yi Hong Intelligence.

Founded in 2017, Lujin New Energy is a joint venture between Kelu and LG Chem. It provides energy storage battery systems that can be used independently for home use systems, UPS and large grid-level energy storage systems.

At present, Lujin has a R&D and production base of more than 6,000 square meters in Wuxi, and has a production line of 600MWh per year. The entire production line has only 4 operators responsible for cable installation and BMS installation. The rate of good quality is 99.7 %. The company expects to add a new production line by 2020 and plans to increase its capacity by 700-800Mwh/year.

In fact, in recent years, the lithium energy storage market has gradually begun to heat up, which has attracted a large number of battery companies to start layout energy storage market. High-tech Li-power in 2018 national tour survey learned that this year a large number of power battery companies will store energy market as the company's key plan this year.

"The company is expected to complete 150 MWh shipments this year," said Zhouhan. Lujin is confident that he will achieve this year's small targets and is more optimistic about the domestic and foreign energy storage market next year. He is currently supplying large quantities for domestic and foreign customers.

Zhouhan believes that at present, Japan and Australia are one of the largest domestic energy storage markets in the world; South Korea is the world's largest generation side energy storage market; Southeast Asia is the world's largest off-grid island market; It is the most promising market in the world.

For different markets, Lujin will combine the advantages of Kelu and LG chemistry in energy storage systems and core technology to open up the domestic and foreign lithium energy storage market.

High-tech Li-power learned that the batteries used in the battery modules produced by Lujin are all leading international cores produced by LG Chemical's latest laminated laminate process. It has six characteristics of high energy density, high cycle life, high compatibility, high safety, high reliability, and high maintainability. It is mainly used in power grid peaking, commercial peaking, FM, household energy storage, and uninterruptible power supply UPS. field.

The company currently adopts three LG chemical cores: the energy type JH3, the JH4, and the power type JP3. The shape structure of the three electric cores is exactly the same, and the production line is fully compatible. This provides Lujin with new energy to explore overseas markets. Strong backing.

Zhouhan said that the global mature energy storage market has particularly high requirements for the cycle life, quality assurance cycle and economic benefits of energy storage batteries, and is not very sensitive to domestic prices, so foreign energy storage markets tend to be Samsung / LG batteries. This is also an important reason why Kelu chose to establish a joint venture with LG Chemical to establish a storage company.
