Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Wu Hao had no choice but to open the information he had prepared earlier and said to everyone: "The manufacturing process of this new lithium-ion battery is actually not complicated, and the existing lithium-ion battery production line can handle it.
It's just that certain modifications need to be made in individual manufacturing links and manufacturing processes to adapt to the new manufacturing processes.
As for the manufacturing cost, it is about 20% higher than the manufacturing cost of existing lithium-ion batteries. However, as the scale and quantity of manufacturing continue to increase, this cost may be further reduced."
"This is not high. This cost is enough to be widely used by the public." Wang Lianggong said after hearing this.
“A new technology that can improve battery performance by 50%, but the manufacturing cost is only 20% higher than before. This is definitely a great initiative.
In 2020, the global lithium-ion battery market will reach 500 billion yuan. Among which, my country's lithium-ion battery market will reach 350 billion yuan (data comes from industry outlook report), accounting for 70% of the global market share.
But everyone must also see that we still have a certain gap compared with the world's leading battery technology. And we still have a long way to go in terms of manufacturing technology and intellectual property rights.
The technology developed by Comrade Wu Hao and his colleagues this time is very important and timely. It makes up for many shortcomings in our battery industry and can elevate our battery industry to a new stage.
As we all know, battery technology has always been a cutting-edge technology in a popular field focused on research and development by various countries. However, in recent decades, there has been basically no development in battery technology.
With the continuous promotion of the new energy industry, the continuous depletion of fossil fuels, and the continuous improvement of people's awareness of environmental protection, new energy technology using electricity as energy has become the most popular technology at present and even in the future.
Drones, unmanned cars, new energy electric vehicles, traditional mobile phones and tablets, all of which are popular nowadays, are all inseparable from the support of battery technology.
It can be said that batteries have become an indispensable part of all kinds of technology products. A mobile phone can not be without a large screen and a smooth system, but it absolutely cannot be without a battery.
Not to mention, the application of battery technology in the military field and cutting-edge weapons and equipment. A good battery may improve our equipment by several levels, which can be said to be related to the improvement of national defense strength.
The timely development of this battery technology can be said to have laid a good foundation for us to occupy the peak of the battery technology field. It is also a catalyst and a shot in the arm to revitalize our country's battery industry.
So regarding this technology and our meeting today, the leaders above attach great importance to it and have instructed us several times to do a good job in this meeting.
Since there are no problems with the technical aspects, let’s talk about the practical aspects. We are all experts in various fields and please share your thoughts.”
Everyone nodded when they heard this, but they looked at each other but had no intention of speaking.
When Wang Lianggong saw this, he smiled and said, "Since no one is talking, I'm going to say it. Xiao Wu, you are the youngest here, so you should be the first to speak."
Be more relaxed and speak boldly. We all want to hear the thoughts of you young people. Especially this battery technology was developed under your leadership. I believe you have more ideas about its use than we do."
Okay, he was called out again. Either he didn't like this kind of meeting, he was too young, and he became the target of everyone's "care".
But since they have all been named, he still has to say what he has to say. Who makes him the youngest among them?
Looking at everyone's gaze, Wu Hao said with a smile: "Since the leaders have named them, I will share my thoughts based on my superficial knowledge.
Regarding battery performance, it is actually best reflected in the field of new energy electric vehicles. After all, what currently restricts the development of electric vehicles is their endurance.
Currently, most electric vehicles on the market have a range of more than 300 kilometers, and few can reach more than 400 kilometers. What I am referring to here is family cars, which are the mainstay of new energy vehicles.
As for electric vehicles used in other models, such as buses or trucks, because they are huge in size, they have a relatively large space for equipping batteries. Therefore, the cruising range is relatively high, which I will not discuss here.
If our new battery technology is used, the cruising range of these electric vehicles will generally reach more than 500 kilometers.
This cruising range is enough for more than 90% of families to meet their daily car needs. Even for long-distance travel, a day trip of 500 kilometers will not feel inadequate. In other words, if it is promoted,
Basically it can replace fossil fuels and even biofuels.
I won’t say much about the environmental benefits, economic benefits, and even social benefits in this area. After all, I am not an expert in this area. But let’s just say that the output value and additional benefits it can create are definitely over one trillion.
Even immeasurable.
In addition to new energy electric vehicles, batteries are also an important and irreplaceable accessory in other electronic devices. A battery with excellent performance plays a vital role in the development of electronic devices.
Mastering this battery is equivalent to mastering the lifeblood of the future development of the electronic product market. Of course, the output value and additional benefits it creates in this field are also amazing.
I won’t say much about other fields. I think you know more about this than me. For example, in the aerospace field, if satellites or spacecrafts use this new battery technology, then it can support the work of more powerful equipment.
Life span can also be greatly increased.
In the Air Force, all electronic components on fighter planes are also powered by electricity. If our battery is replaced, the power of these electronic components will be greatly improved and their performance will also be increased. Radars, missiles, and drones, etc.
The same goes for fields.
Regarding drones, I think Li Suo should know what I’m talking about. With the support of this battery, the equipment performance of my previous projects will be greatly improved.”
With that said, Wu Hao turned to look at Li Weiguo, who nodded. Indeed, if the drone-related projects they previously collaborated on could have this battery technology, the drone's cruising range would be greatly improved.
In addition, the power of the equipment on the drone will also be increased, which will also greatly improve the performance of the drone and increase its combat effectiveness.
"About the navy..." Wu Hao looked at Cheng Haifeng and Lin Hongwen.
When Cheng Haifeng saw this, he immediately smiled and waved his hand and said: "In this regard, let me introduce it."
Upon seeing this, Wu Hao smiled and nodded, and everyone present immediately gave him a burst of warm applause.
