文章预览

Chinese solid-state battery technology company Doctors (Tianjin) Energy Technology Inc plans to start all-solid-state battery (ASSB) production by 2026, after it starts operating a 1 gigawatt-hour quasi-solid-state battery production line.    Pan Qinghai, founder of Doctors, said in an exclusive interview with China Daily that the company is expected to mass produce its frontier quasi-solid-state batteries in October, and is likely to become the first domestic firm to achieve GWh-scale output for this advanced battery technology.    The Baodi, Tianjin-based company is also constructing a new 10 GWh solid-state lithium-ion battery facility with a total of investment of 5 billion yuan ($700 million). The new project is expected to begin with a 5 GWh mass production line in late 2025 and with full production of ASSBs by 2027.    Solid-state batteries offer higher theoretical energy density and safety, and entail lower costs than lithium-ion batteries that currently dominate the elec ………………………………
