Beiqi Penglong joins hands with Guanghua Technology to transfer lithium battery recycling to a substantive phase of cooperation

BAIC Penglong, a subsidiary of BAIC Group, and Guanghua Technology have signed a cooperation framework agreement. The two parties will cooperate in the echelon utilization of decommissioned power lithium batteries and the recycling solution system for waste batteries. On November 12, Guanghua Technology announced the above information. The announcement also pointed out that the two parties will continue to cooperate with new energy and related car companies and battery companies. Established in 2007, BAIC Penglong is a business development platform for automobile service trade under BAIC Group, undertaking BAIC Group’s power lithium battery echelon utilization business. Guanghua Technology was founded in 1980, and its main business is the research and development, processing, sales and service of PCb chemicals, chemical reagents and other special chemicals. Power lithium battery recycling has entered a phase of substantial cooperation, and the demonstration effect is expected to accelerate the later development. With the rapid development of my country's new energy vehicles, my country is about to usher in the large-scale retirement of power batteries. According to EVTANK's forecast, the domestic market for waste power lithium battery cascade utilization will reach 8 billion yuan in the next five years, and the recycling and dismantling market will reach 5.1 billion yuan. Yuan. The cooperation between the two parties includes equity cooperation, joint construction of a recycling system, cooperation in the echelon utilization of waste batteries and material resource solutions, as well as seeking cooperation with other companies in related businesses. The details will focus on four aspects: First, the power lithium battery cascade utilization and resource utilization project in the Pearl River Delta: BAIC Group will invest in Guanghua Technology’s wholly-owned subsidiary Zhuhai Zhongli New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. and Zhuhai Zhongli New Energy Materials Co., Ltd. The main businesses of the two companies are battery cascade utilization and battery material recycling and remanufacturing. The two parties will make use of their respective advantages to jointly carry out the business of recycling decommissioned or scrapped power lithium batteries, publicize the policies and knowledge of power lithium battery recycling, and jointly build a waste power lithium battery recycling network system for the public. Second, Huanghua Power Lithium Battery Echelon Utilization and Resource Reuse Project: Guanghua Technology will participate in the second phase of the Huanghua Power Lithium Battery Echelon Utilization and Recycling Project Company in Hebei Province, led by BAIC Group-Waste Battery Material Resource Reuse Project. Third, the echelon utilization of waste batteries and material resource solutions in the Yangtze River Delta: The two parties will cooperate with new energy and related car companies and battery companies to jointly develop the echelon utilization of waste batteries and material resource solutions. The two parties collaborated on issues such as application for relevant qualifications and factory location to win government support. The two parties will advance the construction of echelon utilization and resource utilization bases in an economical and demonstrative mode, use Guanghua Technology’s advanced wet smelting technology system and echelon utilization development technology and related experience, and carry out equity cooperation in the form of technology + capital with BAIC Group As well as business cooperation such as product development and market sales, we will jointly promote the development of the echelon utilization and resource utilization of power lithium batteries, and jointly build a Yangtze River Delta demonstration base for echelon utilization and resource utilization of decommissioned power lithium batteries. Fourth, explore the business of echelon utilization of waste batteries and material resource solutions in other regions other than the Pearl River Delta, the Yangtze River Delta, and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei: Both parties will continue to cooperate with new energy and related car companies and battery companies to jointly develop the echelon utilization of waste batteries and materials Resource-based solutions, and jointly develop equity cooperation in the form of technology + capital, and business cooperation such as product development and market sales. With the promotion of new energy vehicles increasing year by year, the recycling of power lithium batteries has become the focus of government supervision and the top priority of car companies. In the past two years, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other departments have issued more than ten policies or command opinions related to the recycling of power lithium batteries, requiring car companies to bear the main responsibility for power and electric recycling. In February 2016, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announced the 'Industry Standards for the Comprehensive Utilization of Waste Power Batteries for New Energy Vehicles'. Companies that meet the specifications can apply for the qualification for comprehensive utilization of waste power lithium batteries. In September this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announced the first batch of lists. A total of five companies entered: Guanghua Technology, Quzhou Huayou, Ganzhou Highpower, GEM and Hunan Bangpu. These companies are becoming the targets for car companies and battery companies to seek cooperation in the field of power lithium battery recycling.
