Leaders from the Provincial Department of Science and Technology and county officials visited the Chilwee Chemical Energy Storage Innovation Consortium for an inspection tour- First Stop to Explore AMPower's Sodium-Salt Battery Project
On December 17, 2024, to thoroughly implement the innovation-driven development strategy and promote the high-quality development of the new energy industry, a delegation composed of leaders from the Provincial Department of Science and Technology and county officials conducted a field research visit to the Chilwee Chemical Energy Storage Innovation Consortium. The first stop of the inspection was AMPower Co., Ltd., where they gained an in-depth understanding of the company's innovative achievements in the field of sodium-salt battery technology.

As one of the key members of the Chilwee Chemical Energy Storage Innovation Consortium, AMPower has accumulated extensive experience and technological advantages in the research and development, production, and application of sodium-salt batteries. It is the first domestic manufacturer of sodium-nickel batteries and also the world's largest production base for sodium-nickel batteries. Upon the delegation's arrival, leaders from the Chilwee Group and AMPower expressed a warm welcome and accompanied the visit to the exhibition hall, testing laboratories, and the battery cell workshop.

At the AMPower exhibition hall, the research group gained an in-depth understanding of the development history, technical features, application scenarios, and market prospects of sodium-salt batteries.
The research group also took a keen interest in sodium-salt batteries, asking a series of questions from the perspectives of application scenarios and characteristics, and received professional answers. Subsequently, the team visited the company's testing laboratories and battery cell production workshops. Inside the laboratories, a variety of high-precision testing equipment is available, capable of conducting strict testing and evaluation of the performance of sodium-salt batteries. In the workshops, the leaders gained an in-depth understanding of the manufacturing process of sodium-salt batteries from raw materials to finished products, and expressed affirmation for the advanced automation equipment and stringent quality control systems used by AMPower in the battery production process. This fully demonstrated AMPower's innovative strength and market competitiveness in the field of sodium-salt batteries. The research group highly appraised the efficient, environmentally friendly, and safe characteristics of sodium-salt batteries, and looked forward to their greater role in the future new energy market.

This research activity not only promoted interaction between the government and enterprises but also provided new ideas and momentum for the development of the Chilwee Chemical Energy Storage Innovation Consortium.
