Electric vehicle batteries, buy or rent?

Electric vehicles, as gradually as bikes in public life popularized. Yangzhou city firm recently launched a rental battery battery service, has created quite a stir. Rent or buy? Many people began to plan together.

Trouble: several hundred dollars per year for battery

Mr. Home a year ago bought a electric car, but now how long the ride would not charge. “Merchant said I batteries are used improperly, leading to shorter battery life, and now need to replace the battery.” Mr. Habitat learned about electric car battery market, the average brand they have to several hundred dollars.

Firm in a battery electric vehicle, the reporter also met Ms. Shi to buy batteries, she said: “At home, three motor vehicles every year to this time we should change the batteries.” Ranks as Mr. and Ms. facilities such as electric vehicles Battery replacement lot of trouble many people.

Initiative: leasable electric car batteries

Urban, a battery firm, operating battery maintenance businesses, recently launched a battery electric car rental business. Section 4 yuan per month, including three 36-volt battery also only costs 12 yuan a month. The introduction of this service, so that both are fresh and some people did not understand, the batteries can also be rented?

Mr. Xu told reporters that the firm owner, launched the service less than a month, it made more than 60 single-business. He said: “limited tenure, pay some deposit fill in a procedure on the line, our quality control, customer ease of use, this approach very attractive to the public.”

Wondering: rent or buy, which is more cost-effective?

Mr. Xu boss calculations, calculated in accordance with 36-volt battery, new battery life generally 18 months, but most people are used improperly, this life is also reduced. He said that according to 12 yuan a month rent calculation, 18 months spent 216 yuan, but at least buy a new 400 yuan or so. Rent battery, allowing the public to reduce 1 / 3 battery investment.

Many people said that this new consumption patterns for the feeling of some incompatible. Mr Zhou said the public, rent the battery, after all, not their own, even bother keeping, say, rent the battery enough security? How to use the process of division of responsibilities? Many people hope that the details of the market can be more standardized.

Scientists develop new catalysts for fuel cells

Methanol fuel cell is an alternative to fossil fuel cells, efficient use can be a long time. The fuel cell through the use of electro-oxidation of the chemical reaction to produce electricity. Typically, the induced chemical reactions inside a fuel cell requires platinum catalyst, as platinum is an expensive metal, so the use of this technology is very limited. It is reported that chemists Jose E Barranco will likely change this situation. According to his research, the use of cheaper fuel cell catalysts has been developed. Barranco with nickel, niobium, antimony and ruthenium as a catalyst made of alloy, the content of platinum in the catalyst to a minimum (only l%). The new alloy also improves the catalytic process of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide conversion. With the successful test catalysts, Barranco want to experiment more in-depth, the efficiency of the catalyst increased 9-13 times. This also means that the efficiency of methanol fuel cells will be increased by 50% or more.

New nickel mine development project

Nickel price slump that delayed the development of new projects, but the market outlook remains positive

London, Oct. 29, according to the message, the industry said on Wednesday, nickel prices have fallen sharply so that the new nickel mine development project delayed due to sharp drop in nickel prices, these items may not be profitable, so that the future nickel market will result in tight supply, and promote higher nickel prices.

Listed in London, European Nickel Industry Corporation (European Nickel) manager Simon Purkiss said Wednesday, "the current financial crisis could bring nickel prices increase again."

LME three-month nickel in May 2007 had hit a record high of 51,800 dollars, which caused many in the global nickel exploration and production projects of new investment boom.

However, nickel prices hit a record high, the stainless steel producers began to use alternatives, nickel demand fell, followed by economic crisis, all commodities are faced with selling and promoting nickel prices fell on Wednesday, 12,300 U.S. dollars per ton.

Albidon said Dale Rogers, CEO, "Nickel prices fell to $ 4.5 per pound (9,921 U.S. dollars / ton), or 5 U.S. dollars (11,023 U.S. dollars / ton) around, about 40% nickel producers are losing money."

Decline in nickel prices, producers fell, financing difficulties forced many producers to stop the pace of expansion of existing projects and delay the development of new mines, so that when the recovery of global nickel demand, the nickel market will once again supply tight.

Dale Rogers said, "estimated that nickel prices will rebound at some point."

Albidon's Munali company is located in southern Zambia nickel mine has begun production, estimated in the first quarter of 2009 reached full design capacity.

Standard Bank said in a report, it is estimated this year's global nickel production (including China's nickel pig iron) material reduction of 150,000 tons of global nickel production expected 140 million tonnes.

Mirabela Nickel CEO Nick Poll said, "there will be nickel project will be discontinued or reduced, as they in the current market conditions, is unprofitable."

"So, the long term, nickel market prospects."

Simon Purkiss said the long term, the nickel market outlook bright, due to come from emerging economies such as Brazil, Russia, India and China's demand will increase, while production capacity and other material made to defer the next few years the market supply tight.

Lithium Battery Energy saving Upsurge

With the constant fluctuations in international oil prices, energy saving environmentally friendly lithium battery in the limelight once again a hot topic. From 6 months, the number of international auto companies and electronics companies are using large-scale lithium battery joint investment. Including Toyota and Matsushita, Nissan and NEC, Volkswagen and Sanyo, Bosch and Samsung, they believe that lithium batteries in the next few years will gradually replace the nickel-metal hydride batteries, lead the direction of development of hybrid vehicles. Li-ion battery in the heat of global investment background, China's automotive enterprises in this research work is in what kind of? Experts on the lithium battery is holding what kind of attitude? Recently, the reporter interviewed specifically on this issue who has studied the domestic lithium battery, several experts.

Beijing Institute of Electric Vehicle Engineering Center Deputy Director Lin Cheng

Study of lithium iron phosphate has been a breakthrough

Lin Cheng told reporters, demanding automotive lithium batteries. It requires that the vehicle used in a variety of conditions, must protect the security, can not occur fire, explosions and other accidents. The first was for battery electric vehicles, in this country has made great breakthroughs have begun to take industrial scale. But 5,6 years ago, with the battery powered vehicles are often some accidents, such cells will gradually be diluted. Now, the domestic lithium battery research progress quickly, especially in the battery safety issues, has made great progress.

Lin Cheng told reporters, lithium batteries include lithium manganese oxide and lithium iron phosphate batteries. At present, the development of the domestic lithium manganese oxide has begun to take shape. Lithium iron phosphate as safer, longer life, will become an important direction for future development of lithium batteries, but also abroad, the focus of research and development of the automobile. At present, lithium iron phosphate studies of good progress, especially in some of the patent on a breakthrough, this time for the Beijing Olympic Games is a passenger car with a self-developed lithium iron phosphate lithium battery.

"Of course with the study abroad compared to lithium batteries, the domestic lithium battery research still lags far behind, but the domestic lithium battery emphasis on increasing, the future will be the R & D focus." Lin Cheng told reporters.

Henan Huanyu Group lithium battery industry technology Deng Lun-ho, deputy chief engineer

Large-scale lithium batteries for electric cars need some time

Henan Huanyu Group is a component from the battery to the battery cell manufacturing plastics and related hardware, equipment manufacturing, electronics manufacturing, a complete industrial chain of the Enterprise Group, has undertaken the project of Science and Technology Li-ion battery research and development.

"At present the domestic lithium battery research and abroad, the gap is mainly reflected in the battery control system and power management systems." Deng Lun-ho told reporters that now the domestic lithium battery research for development in their respective state. Currently, some companies have been able to provide the corresponding lithium battery electric vehicle accessory products, supporting the general lithium batteries can run 200 to 500 km.

Deng Lun-ho told reporters that now the price is too high the domestic lithium battery, power management system problem has not yet been well resolved. Charging electric vehicles also face the problem. Currently, the general line at home can not charge lithium batteries for electric vehicles must be equipped with a small dedicated charger, and charging time is very long and very troublesome. Abroad, in order to solve this problem, generally regarded charging stations and gas stations together. China is now charging stations have not established a large scale.

Deng Lun-ho believes that the current consumer acceptance of electric vehicles equipped with lithium batteries it still more difficult: "the price of an ordinary electric car is about twice the same configuration or even higher gasoline locomotives, domestic consumers have not enough economic prepared to accept the power and electric vehicles. "

China Electric Power Research Institute engineer Chuang Feng

Optimistic about the prospects for the development of lithium iron phosphate

Chong Tong, told this reporter, the electric vehicle battery research and development work has gone from lead-acid batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries to the development of lithium batteries, each battery advantages and disadvantages.

The earliest to appear in lead-acid batteries, used in the longest time, belonging to the battery series. The best safety performance lead-acid batteries, rare explosion, fire and other phenomena, energy storage effect is not ideal. Later, people developed a nickel-metal hydride batteries, store energy and power than the effect of the ideal lead-acid batteries, but due to nickel-metal hydride battery in the charging of hydrogen generated in the process prone to explosion, so the nickel-metal hydride batteries in a business may or may not state.

To the year 2000, people developed a lithium battery. Lithium batteries are lead-acid storage battery of power 2 to 3 times, but because it contains lithium-ion active in the metal layer surface, prone to spontaneous combustion in the air, explosions, etc., higher risk. So now the major countries is to control the development of lithium batteries is safety and stability.

"Charging a lithium battery would be able to cycle around 1000, in which the stored energy of lithium iron phosphate is better than lithium cobalt oxide and lithium manganese oxide effects worse, but it's the best safety performance, than lead-acid battery energy storage much higher, so now the most promising lithium iron phosphate. "Chuang Tong said.

Society of Automotive Engineers of China, director Chen Quanshi branch of electric car

Three problems of domestic lithium battery research

Quan-Shi Chen said in an interview: "Now the state attaches great importance to the study of lithium batteries, '863 'project, the state invested a total of 66 million yuan, all development work for the lithium battery. We and Japan, the United States such as walking in the lithium battery research and development in the forefront of the developed countries, China's lithium battery manufacturing precision, equipment, standards, etc. there is a certain gap between R & D details. "

Quan-Shi Chen told reporters that at present there are three issues of domestic lithium battery research. The first is the consistency of manufacturing. Since the lithium battery manufacturing technology and equipment there is a gap, the domestic lithium battery production technology mixed, manufacturing standards has not yet reached agreement. Lithium batteries used in electric vehicles are connected in series or in parallel, if the consistency issues are not well, then the large-scale production of lithium batteries used in electric vehicles will not be able.

Followed by the intellectual property rights. Currently in the study of lithium iron phosphate has made a breakthrough, but the U.S. patent in this area, so although some of our links to independent research and development, but in intellectual property issues, but also do not know how to respond.

The third issue is the selection of raw materials. Now the production of raw materials used in lithium batteries can not all imported, mainly from China, but domestic raw materials, through international certification, to produce lithium-ion batteries in order to be internationally recognized, so the link in the certification of raw materials and also some problems.

Buffett's largest battery manufacturers Nuggets storm

Subject to further deterioration in U.S. subprime mortgage crisis news, global stock markets plummeted again, almost all of the investors are confused and do not know how to develop late, and which concern the industry, this time, "Warren" Buffett once again shot for specified investors the future direction of investment. Hong Kong-listed BYD at the opening day last week, rose 90%, almost double! The reason is that Warren Buffett invested 1.8 billion Hong Kong dollars acquisition of China's largest rechargeable battery maker BYD stake of 10%! Currently, the market authority generally agreed that the field of BYD electric vehicle battery technology leading the main advantage is one of Buffett's shot. It is noteworthy that, in Buffett's BYD to attract investment and short-term stimulation soared, A-share market after the opening bell on Monday to Section power far, Desai batteries, battery, led by market trends limit the outbreak of the collective subject shares , one of the few bright spots the market. Their common characteristic is the same as the production and BYD car battery! After careful excavation, we found (000,839) CITIC Guoan: The company is the largest lithium battery cathode material of lithium cobalt oxide and lithium manganese oxide manufacturers, but also the only large-scale domestic production of lithium ion secondary battery manufacturers, Power Battery Company has been identified as the 2008 Beijing Olympic Beijing Olympics pure electric bus exclusive supply products, we can see whether a product or a scale far better than the BYD, Section Desai battery power far and is worthy of the name power battery industry leader, therefore, short-term effect in BYD under battery power crazy, and Buffett's long-term gold investment philosophy is driven, we have reason to look forward to CITIC Guoan up the outbreak of the future will continue to strongly recommended that investors pay close attention!

Buffett storm Nuggets, car battery to prominence!

In a jittery global financial markets when, "Warren" Buffett once again dished out generous, indicating their car battery industry is very promising. Authoritative analysis revealed that Buffett will focus new energy battery new energy industries, especially the nickel-hydrogen batteries for automobiles into a stimulant. BYD resumption of trading last week after Hong Kong stocks, the stock doubled in 3 days, attracting the attention of the world. In addition, the National Energy Research Institute Master Ren Gaoshi constitution that the Government to promote and encourage the development and utilization of new energy policy will not change. This means that the growing tension in the energy and long-term trend, domestic battery and other items with the listed company full of bright prospects for development. And because of this, A shares within the first trading day National Day Return staged a crazy battery subject shares soaring drama, we see a continuous plummet in Shanghai and Shenzhen panic atmosphere, with car battery Aspect of the Division real force far stronger limit Desai batteries, such as production Fosugufen related materials are nickel-hydrogen battery to soar! We note that the focus of BYD soared because of its battery Aspect, A-share market is currently involved in the field are not many listed companies, only a few have a true sense of the power battery products projects. This background, as a real car battery Aspect (000,839) CITIC Guoan is unknown at present, there will be a blockbuster material afternoon soared good show!

The largest battery manufacturers, the industry leader!

CITIC Guoan MGL (referred to as MGL) CITIC Guoan Co., Ltd. is holding 90% of the subsidiary. MGL was founded in April 2000, mainly engaged in the lithium ion cell materials and high energy density lithium ion battery research and development, production and sales. MGL is currently the largest lithium battery cathode material of lithium cobalt oxide and lithium manganese oxide manufacturers, but also the only large-scale domestic production of lithium ion secondary battery manufacturers. After nearly a decade of efforts, MGL has developed into a business involved in technology development, production and sales and investment and other aspects of comprehensive large-scale high-tech enterprises, and formed from the lithium battery materials and lithium batteries to electric vehicle research and development and production complete industrial chain.

Outstanding safety performance of the product, MGL developed high-capacity lithium manganese battery by the Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games to determine the pure electric bus exclusive supply of products. Requirements under the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission, CITIC Guoan MGL Power Co. electric car project for the Beijing Olympics provided 100Ah high-capacity lithium manganese battery loading has been running for more than 10,000 km, the battery in good working condition. It is reported that electric bus charging time is short, 3 hours to reach 95% charge level, charging each one to run 200-400 kilometers per charge and 500 times the battery capacity will decay by 8.3%, its operating cost is only fuel vehicles 1 / 5. Lithium manganese oxide as cathode in the large-capacity secondary battery power, is expected in the future will quickly be applied to the land, sea and space and other mobile power, emergency power, uninterrupted power supply and large-scale power storage device in the city at night. CITIC Guoan MGL Power Technology Co., Ltd. has developed several hundred to several kilowatts of energy boxes of new products, take advantage of non-renewable energy create a new way. It can be seen, as with BYD's battery, the company's battery subsidiary and use the product even better, and many other aspects, which had people on the CITIC Guoan is more optimistic about future prospects, a real The industry leader!

If you are confused to believe that Buffett's eyes!

In a jittery global financial markets when, if you lost to believe that Buffett's eyes! God shares the success rate of at least much higher than other institutions, so time and time again history proved Buffett's unique vision. Market, the Hong Kong-listed BYD opening day or 90%, almost doubled; A-share market point of view, with real car battery Corun Aspect, Desai batteries continuous limit, such as production Fosugufen nickel-hydrogen battery related materials are substantially higher. This background, we believe, CITIC Guoan is the largest battery manufacturer, the company battery is identified as the 2008 Beijing Olympic Beijing Olympics pure electric bus exclusive supply products, we can see whether a product or size are much much better than BYD, Section power far and Desai battery, battery power is truly the industry leader, the bottom of the stock price is still in the history of power sector will attract the coveted. Technically, the stock adjustment in place, is expected to strongly broke up late, it is worth investors to pay attention!
