ʻO Contemporary Amperex Technology Thuringia GmbH ("CATT"), ka mea kanu mua o CATL ma waho o Kina, ua hoʻomaka i ka hana nui ʻana o nā keena pākaukau lithium-ion ma mua o kēia mahina e like me ka mea i hoʻonohonoho ʻia, e hōʻailona ana i kahi mea nui i ka hoʻomohala ʻoihana honua o CATL.

Ua ʻōwili ʻia ka pūʻulu mua o nā pūnaewele pākahi lithium-ion i hana nui ʻia mai ka laina hana ma ka hale G2 o CATT. Ua hoʻomaka ʻia ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana a me ke kau ʻana o nā laina i koe no ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka hana.

 

Ua hala nā pūnaewele i hana hou ʻia i nā hoʻokolohua āpau i koi ʻia e CATL ma luna o kāna mau huahana honua, ʻo ia ka mea hiki iā CATL ke hana a hoʻolako i nā cell no kāna mau mea kūʻai mai ʻEulopa mai ka mea kanu Kelemania.

"ʻO ka hoʻomaka ʻana e hōʻike i ka mālama ʻana i kā mākou ʻōlelo hoʻohiki i kā mākou mea kūʻai aku ma ke ʻano he hoa hilinaʻi o ka ʻoihana a ke kūpaʻa nei mākou i ka hoʻololi e-mobility o ʻEulopa ma lalo o nā kūlana paʻakikī e like me ka maʻi maʻi," wahi a Matthias Zentgraf, ka pelekikena o CATL no ʻEulopa.

"Ke hana ikaika nei mākou e hoʻonui i ka hana i ka piha piha, ʻo ia kā mākou mea nui no ka makahiki e hiki mai ana," wahi āna.

I ʻApelila o kēia makahiki, ua hāʻawi ʻia ʻo CATT i ka ʻae no ka hana ʻana i nā cell phone e ka mokuʻāina ʻo Thuringia, kahi e hiki ai i ka mana mua o 8 GWh i kēlā me kēia makahiki.

I ke kolu o ka hapaha o 2021, ua hoʻomaka ʻo CATT i ka hana module ma kāna hale G1.

Me ka huina kālā a hiki i ka € 1.8 biliona, hōʻike ʻo CATT i ka nui o ka mana hana i hoʻolālā ʻia o 14GWh a hoʻolālā e hāʻawi i nā kamaʻāina kūloko 2,000 mau hana.

E loaʻa iā ia ʻelua mau mea nui: G1, kahi mea kanu i kūʻai ʻia mai kahi hui ʻē aʻe e hōʻuluʻulu i nā cell i loko o nā modules, a me G2, kahi mea kanu hou e hana ai i nā cell.

Hoʻomaka ka hana ʻana o ka mea kanu i ka makahiki 2019, a ua hoʻomaka ka hana ʻana o ka cell module i ka mea kanu G1 i ke kolu o ka hapaha o 2021.

I ʻApelila o kēia makahiki, ua loaʻa ka laikini no ka mea kanu8 GWh o ka hiki ke keleponano ka hale G2.

Ma waho aʻe o ka mea kanu ma Kelemānia, ua hoʻolaha ʻo CATL ma ʻAukake 12 e kūkulu ʻo ia i kahi kahua hana pākaukau hou ma Hungary, ʻo ia ka lua o kāna mea kanu ma ʻEulopa a e hana i nā cell a me nā modules no nā mea hana kaʻa ʻEulopa.
