LiPure Energy,a Beijing-based battery firm,said it has successfully built China's first production line to manufacture all-solid-state lithium batteries and has already launched mass production.
With a target production capacity of 200 megawatt-hours,the line is able to charge 200,000 electric scooters simultaneously,the company said.
Once operating at full capacity,it is expected to churn out thousands of such batteries each day,it said.
The company added that its all-solid-state lithium battery is made for various sectors including energy storage and electric two-wheelers.
All-solid-state batteries offer higher theoretical energy density and safety,and entail lower costs than lithium-ion batteries that currently dominate the electric vehicle sector.Hence,many countries consider them a potentially game-changing technology.
