Liu Jingyu said: “Central Innovation Airlines, which focuses on civilian product business, will continue to deepen energy storage technology, accelerate the process of clean energy replacement, help drive changes, and promote low-carbon development of society. The company's planned production capacity will exceed 500GWh in 2025, and the estimated production capacity will reach 1TWh in 2030. ."

  It is reported that the Jiangsu Power and Energy Storage Battery Manufacturing Innovation Center is an innovation consortium formed by the upstream and downstream of the China Innovative Aviation Traction Industry.

The establishment of the innovation center marks the entry into the implementation stage of the exploration of the collaborative innovation ecosystem of the power battery industry in Jiangsu Province.

Shi Xiaopeng said: "The Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology will work with the Changzhou Municipal Government to upgrade the innovation center into a major innovation carrier with national influence in the industry in accordance with the principle of joint construction between the provinces and cities."
