Geely Auto will complete production of its first in-house developed all-solid-state battery pack in 2026 and conduct vehicle installation verification.

The first passenger vehicle model equipped with CATL's sodium-ion batteries will come from GAC Aion.

The sodium-ion battery is engineered for extreme cold environments, retaining 90% of its usable capacity at -40°C, CATL said.

LG Energy Solution plans to complete construction of the pilot production line within the year and begin sample production.

The prototype cars feature solid-state batteries with an energy density of 350 Wh/kg, doubling that of mainstream LFP battery cells.

The pack's cells support peak charging rates of up to 6C, enabling a 10%-80% charge in under 10 minutes.

Hongqi's first full solid-state battery pack has been installed in the Hongqi Tiangong 06 prototype vehicle.

The standard is seen as a key step for solid-state batteries to transition from laboratory research to large-scale vehicle integration.

CATL's 587-Ah high-capacity cells for energy storage have achieved 2 GWh in shipments, with this year's volume projected to reach 3 GWh.

Svolt has completed development of its first-generation semi-solid-state square battery cells with an energy density of 270 Wh/kg.
