With energy and environmental issues more and more, the lithium iron to its high safety, long life, clean, light, etc., is recognized worldwide will replace the traditional lead-acid, nickel-cadmium , nickel hydrogen batteries, widely used in transportation, information, energy, military and other fields, particularly in the field of electric vehicles, a huge market space.
Although the Chinese industry of lithium iron battery has reached a considerable development, but there is consistency in manufacturing, intellectual property and materials chosen three issues to be resolved. According to experts, the battery lease to find a breakthrough marketing strategy to promote the use of lithium iron to help the new self energy consumption at the same time, the introduction of policies to promote national implementation of the iron industry of the lithium battery.
Energy saving and lithium iron environmentally
Lithium iron is a new area of energy saving environmental protection in recent years, worldwide rapid development. Currently, the development of lithium iron key enterprises in Suzhou Star Hang, Lei day in Shenzhen, BYD Shenzhen, China Xuan power, the power of God Tianjin, Henan energy sky. Studies have shown that the lithium iron battery can replace traditional lead-acid, widely used in transportation, information, energy, military and other fields, particularly in electric cars, electric bicycles, and other areas, can significantly reduce emissions of pollutants.
Hefei, China Xuan Energy Power Tech Co., Ltd. Chief Engineer Paul Song told reporters, a car, for example, a car for every 100 km of sewage around 2.3 kg, a distance of 50 km per vehicle per day, while a car is about 420 kg per year of wastewater is also free use of vehicles and fuel in the oil refining process produces a lot of pollution. The industrial base of China Tower supply 10 billion dollars after the completion of Group 320 000 a year per car battery. If each vehicle per day at 50 km to 100 km fuel consumption under 12.5 liters, the company produces batteries for electric vehicles can save 730,000 tons of fuel oil per year. In terms of conduct of each of the battery life of 15 million km, the batteries of electric vehicles can save 18.75 tonnes each fuel, the group of 320 000 electric vehicle batteries could potentially save six million tonnes of fuel.
Three problems have hindered the development of lithium iron
lithium iron has a huge market space. With electric cars, for example, according to the plan of China automobile industry development objectives electric motor industry development are: 2010, electric cars, to full ownership of the vehicle accounting for 5% -10 %, annual production and sales of vehicles more than 1.5 million electric; In 2030, electric cars should be 20% of passenger cars in total 30%, and sales of electric cars in China to 700 000 000 000 -15000 billion. It is the market, if it is associated with the international market, the lithium iron in electric vehicles in the field of industrial space will be enormous.
At the same time, the experts stressed that Japan and the United States takes the search for iron and lithium battery development in the forefront of developed countries, China lithium in the manufacture of precision iron, equipment, standards are still developing the details of a ditch, three main constraints problems.
The first is the consistency of manufacture. As technology lithium iron battery technology and equipment there is a discrepancy, the internal process of the lithium iron production mix, manufacturing standards also achieve consistency. Electric vehicles are used in lithium iron in series or in parallel, while the problems of coherence are not good, then the iron produced by lithium batteries widely used in electric vehicles will not be able.
Second, intellectual property rights. Currently in the lithium iron phosphate research breakthrough battery has been made, but because of U.S. patents in this field, even if we have links to independent research and development, intellectual property issues but do not know how to react.
The third issue is the selection of raw materials. Now, raw materials for iron battery lithium Shengchan can not all imported, mainly from China, but the country through the international certification of raw materials, production of lithium iron to be internationally recognized certification raw materials so that there are still areas Shang problem.
The rental of finding a breakthrough in battery
lithium iron has been recognized as the most suitable battery for electric vehicles, but higher costs, the weaker market situation hampered its further development. Experts have suggested that the farm lease to find a breakthrough marketing strategy to promote the use of lithium iron, the same time, the introduction of policies to promote national implementation of industry iron lithium battery.
Reporter has learned that although the development of promising new energy vehicles, but its main market of the battery is still low, simply because production costs are high, current battery electric vehicles are set to take account the cost of the vehicle costs 1 / 2. The industry has suggested that by leasing the farm marketing strategies to break this bottleneck.
Paul Song said, the battery electric cars can hire a way for consumers to use: on the one hand, buyers can significantly reduce the cost to consumers of pure electric vehicles (battery not included) will price the traditional power phase of the vehicle is not up and down on the other hand, in the context of rising oil prices, consumer battery rental car can reduce the cost of making it better to choose a car seat-electric vehicle . The lease is for longer range battery means the battery can provide the management, control, battery recycling and reuse of links, a development that is truly green. And if the popular new car battery technology, battery leasing to customers also want to TM.
Zuo Yan’an JAC chairman, said the state should devote sufficient resources to support those few technologies or other new element lithium. Rare Earth in China is rich in resources, the battery is also very rich in a number of rare elements, wants the state to use these resources to give priority to support a number of institutions Chan Xueyan joint research, platform operating countries to produce high performance, high efficiency, a global competitive advantage battery.
