New energy battery

New energy battery


Shanghai-made battery test new energy industry


With independent intellectual property rights, self-developed by the manufacturing enterprises in Shanghai's new energy vehicle power battery pack has been put into the motor vehicle manufacturers and Tangshan, the construction of maglev trains in use, the National Maglev Transportation Engineering Research Center also dished out the "hydrangea", to be used domestically Battery replace the original imported products. Yesterday, from the Power and Energy Co., Ltd. Shanghai million Hong spread the good news: the company's new energy power batteries have achieved an annual capacity of 1 million units, basically to test industrial scale, which marks the Shanghai-made significant new energy battery progress.


It is understood that the new energy battery pack is a very important car parts, with the stored energy to provide power, protection and safety features, is considered the core of the new energy vehicle technologies. Such batteries must have high power, high reliability, long life, low cost, etc., industry is difficult, the world, only Japan and the United States three companies to mass production. Therefore, whether the introduction of qualified local enterprises, mass production of battery packs, will directly affect the domestic industrialization of new energy vehicles speed.


As the Shanghai International Automobile City postdoctoral innovation base, Wan Hong Hong power in Changning million Industrial Investment (Group) Co., Ltd., Shanghai Institute of Microsystem and Information Technology Research Institute, Shanghai Nano Technology and Application of National Engineering Research Center, jointly set up a high science and technology enterprises. There is no mass production for the domestic new vehicle power battery energy status of the enterprise, Wan Hong power Ni-MH battery pack will power its latest flagship product, the use of interdisciplinary research, with doctoral, postdoctoral advantage conducted a research project.


Deputy General Manager, Chief Engineer SOURCES Ph.D., told reporters, domestic battery pack to compete with imported products, must establish their own production lines, can master the core technology, but also reduce production costs. Thus, the macro million proposed design their own development critical power equipment, production equipment by domestic manufacturing. After nearly three years of efforts, the company has six national invention patents, two national utility model patents, an independent patent application and 2 applications for utility model patents, independent, self-motivation to establish a more perfect type Ni-MH battery production line. This means that the Shanghai production of new energy power batteries can no longer rely on imports to achieve one hundred percent "Made in China."


In product performance, the Shanghai production of new energy battery pack is not inferior to similar imported products. Authority of the State Department repeatedly detected on the Shanghai-power NiMH battery packs were sampling, to verify in the charge retention ability, safety, mechanical properties, simulation conditions and the cycle life and other performance indicators were satisfactory. Among them, the resistance, the energy conversion rate and other key indicators of the test results show that Shanghai-performance nickel-metal hydride battery pack has to be comparable with similar imported products.


As produced in local enterprises, the Shanghai production of new energy power batteries of the price of similar foreign products 60% to 70%, and also in the maintenance more convenient than the imported products. It is the advantage of this cheap, so at the trial stage of the industrialization of new energy automotive batteries produced in Shanghai has been favored by domestic and foreign buyers. According to reports, several domestic OEMs and the National Maglev Engineering Center, and the million have been cooperating macro power, and related products produced by the Shanghai battery. In addition, macro million lithium-ion battery power is also aimed at the development of new energy in this new direction, is gradually breaking the industrialization of key technologies and related products in the Shanghai Institute of Microsystem and Information Technology Institute pilot.

Arouse dreams of green biofuels flight

Arouse dreams of green biofuels flight


10, Continental Airlines announced here, the first commercial aircraft flight using biofuels recent successful test flight. It opened in 2009, including China, a series of new tests of fuel off the aircraft, once again aroused the people to take the green air travel dreams.


Fuel: Jatropha tree with seaweed extracts and flight


Continental Airlines Beijing office to provide information to reporters, said the plane did not carry passengers on the Boeing 737-800 aircraft for about two hours of successful flight. Continental Airlines Chairman and CEO Luokai Rui said: "Through this test the technical knowledge gained will help to more deeply explore the sustainable development of air transport fuel future."


According to Continental Airlines Chief Representative of China and director of Guoxing Chang introduced to compare the use of biofuels and conventional fuels mixed performance, flight test aircraft No. 1 engine of 100% using the traditional jet fuel, No. 2 engine uses 50% of the extract of Jatropha curcas and algae 50% biofuel with traditional jet fuel. This mixed bio-fuels will greatly reduce carbon emissions. Jatropha curcas and algae in their life cycle can consume a lot of carbon.


Despite the sharp decline in global oil prices in early 2009, but in the long run, to reduce oil dependence, reduce costs and achieve air emission reductions, the new fuel by the way the aircraft is a must. In addition to Continental Airlines, New Zealand, Brazil and other countries are carrying out bio-energy aviation flight experiment.


Bio-energy use, inevitably raises concern for food security. In this regard, Luo Kairui said, and the extraction of fuel from corn and other grains is different from seaweed extract mixed with Jatropha curcas on food crops or biofuels will not adversely affect the water supply can also reduce deforestation.


Do not burn oil aircraft: new technologies need to overcome the revolution


International Air Transport Association recently announced in Beijing, the world's first prototype solar-powered aircraft will conduct the first test flight in early 2009 and is expected to arrive in China within the next two years.


And the mixed fuel of different aircraft, the aircraft does not use solar energy vehicle oil. Bisignani said IATA director, the world's first solar-powered aircraft earlier this year after a first test flight is expected in 2011 to fly around the world including China.


Boeing, one with a proton exchange membrane fuel cell and lithium-ion batteries for small manned plane, successfully conducted its first test flight last year. Driven by a pilot of the aircraft, relying on battery power at 1000 m altitude of 100 kilometers an hour flight for about 20 minutes.


According to reports, China's Trina Solar Company and Air France jointly developed by Lisa new energy powered aircraft is also expected to complete the assembly of the end of 2009. This will be the world's first solar and hydrogen energy to power the new aircraft.


China Dream: energy saving and technological innovation


International aviation community believe that the use of aircraft fuel mix is expected to put into commercial operation next 5 years. Totally ordinary passengers to take the new aircraft burning oil, it may take 20 years or so.


"We hope that the new fuel mix of aircraft operating in the China-US route as soon as possible, the sooner the better." Continental Airlines Chairman and CEO Luorui Kai said.


In recent years, IATA has been working to promote the reduction of carbon in the air and plans. After the United States as air power and the world's second largest consumer market of aircraft, aircraft fuel in China is facing new challenges in research and development.


At present, the total cost of airline fuel costs 36% to 40%, if the new fuel, can effectively reduce aircraft operating costs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.


IATA's airline industry in the zero-emission process, the investment in new technology in a key position. It is reported that China's current development of biofuels has certain technical advantages, but in non-traditional powered flight is far behind Europe and America.

337 battery patent dispute

337 battery patent dispute


Chinese battery companies win in U.S. patent disputes Energizer


Chinese battery company jointly responding to victory over the United States Energizer "337 battery patent dispute case", as Chinese enterprises overseas rights of another example. The results of the victory is important, but the lessons learned for process analysis and continue to "go out" of Chinese companies may be more beneficial.


Unity is strength


Since 2002, China has suffered for 6 years as the United States "337 investigation" the most involved country, by the "337 investigation" of the company is involved in electronics, light industry, chemical, biological, medical device and other industries. But now, responding to China's enterprises, "Section 337" less than ideal circumstances.


During the "337 battery patent dispute case" in the lead by the China Battery Industry Association, the Chinese respondent companies have weathered numerous challenges, and always adhere to the group operations, the industry has not yet have a product exports to the U.S. companies are generous. Chinese respondent enterprises in Fujian Nanping Nanfu Battery Co., Ltd. Administration Department Kangjin Wei recalled: "the meeting in Ningbo, a home out of non-respondent enterprises on the spot 4 million to support the respondent, which is a kind of national spirit."


"Battery Battery Company in favor of '337 patent dispute 'a great inspiration to domestic enterprises." Deputy director of Intellectual Property Academy of Social Sciences Li Shunde, said in an interview, the respondent on the one hand argue to have the courage and the attitude of scientific analysis, to positive response, and dare the respondent, good responding, we can not blindly believe in each other's conclusions can not be negative patient, show a sufficient basis to reasoning; the other hand, the respondent to pay attention to strategy, responding to need money, manpower, resources, legal and other aspects of support, individual companies may weak, but we unite together, through trade associations and other intermediary organizations to win only the possibility of coordination. Particularly in the face of the United States "Section 337" may give the "general exclusion order", responding to the results will affect the development of all enterprises in the Chinese industry, this requires the joint efforts of the entire industry.


Preventive measures


Energizer in the United States on the outcome of litigation lost, but Kang Jinwei, the U.S. companies the importance of intellectual property, but domestic companies should learn. Compared with the Energizer, domestic enterprises lagged behind awareness of intellectual property, ability to use intellectual property is obviously lacking. Kangjin Wei admitted, the defendant after the company realized the importance of patents, patent applications began to study. Nanfu company as the industry's leading enterprise like this, other companies can be seen.


At present, awareness of intellectual property rights of enterprises are generally not strong, resulting in some enterprises, especially exporters exist in varying degrees, the risk of infringement of foreign intellectual property. Wang Jing Zhong of China Battery Industry Association, said the Secretary-General, the enterprise should have a strong awareness of intellectual property, we must understand the situation of the enterprise intellectual property, product development at the same time make sure to do the work of the patent application, so as to really protect their own interests from damage. "337 battery patent dispute," the Chinese firm attorney Stephen Hawking? Stockhausen law firm Zou Guorong are suggestions that Chinese enterprises "going out", be sure to understand the target market, distribution and protection of patents, know ourselves, can prevent the first place.


Enhancing strength is the key


United States International Trade Commission 709 final award decision Energizer patent for its failure to meet U.S. federal patent law described in section 112 of the written request is invalid, mainly due to the uncertainty of China's terms of use patents against other patents. Previously, the 709 was the Energizer patent to the United States, Japan, Singapore and many other battery companies collect royalties for the "killer." According to Zou Guorong said, it is generally believed that the U.S. patent is very strict, patent litigation is usually from the patent novelty and significance of this relatively easy to prove two points to start, very few people with the uncertainty of patent terms. "This is based on our deep understanding of the United States based on patent law, and it is the key to our victory."


"Enhancing strength is the key." Wang Jing Zhong said that mercury-free alkaline manganese battery technology is now very mature, domestic enterprises should be in the new energy batteries such as lithium batteries, etc. to speed up R & D, do the layout and development of intellectual property. It is understood, Changhong Group is currently working on a new generation of digital product development for high-power battery to actively apply for patents. Reporter also learned that quite a few battery companies have to improve their core technology R & D capabilities on the agenda, step by step to innovative projects, the concrete implementation of the work to each quarter, every month.

Tianwei change plans to invest 3.2 billion yuan for the amorphous silicon thin film solar cell projects; LDK announced in Nanchang building the most technologically advanced and largest thin film solar cell projects; July 2008, Johnson & Johnson 25MW of amorphous silicon photovoltaic film solar cell production line officially put into operation; Gan announced the formation of a joint venture to share and build an annual capacity of 50MW target film amorphous silicon photovoltaic cell production line. Suntech added, Vosges stake in Rio Nisshin energy, variety of shares and other companies have also announced its entry into the field of thin film batteries, thin film batteries attract domestic investment.


South developed enough to each one square meter solar electricity a day


Learned from the Nankai University, Nankai University in the solar energy into electricity has made significant progress, and built the country's largest amorphous silicon thin film solar cell production line, and have the ability to mass production. According to reports, the use of the battery power per hour per square meter, 55 watts, can meet the electricity needs of a family one day.


Also known as photovoltaic solar cells, layman's terms, that is, absorb solar energy, to transform them into electrical devices. It looks like a thin card or glass, the thickness of only 6 mm. Because solar safe, reliable, non-polluting, energy widely available, etc., can be widely used in industry, agriculture, military, civil and other fields, large satellites in the universe, small family radio, charger, solar batteries are ready for takeoff.


Line Chief Engineer, Institute of Optoelectronic Information Technical Science, Nankai University, Thin Film Devices and Technology Institute, said researchers Professor Wang Zongpan, home of the battery, install 1 square meter of a home enough power to use amorphous silicon solar cells per square meter per hour power 55 watts, can basically meet the demand of a family day. Moreover, the amorphous silicon solar cells can generate electricity grid, which will be solar in sunny issued to the excess power transmission grid, to the rainy day or night, the electricity grid will Zaishu previously stored to the user, is fully capable of to ensure continuous use year round.


According to reports, Nankai University, amorphous silicon thin film solar cell production line is expected to double production this year is expected to expand production to 100 megawatts next year scale, equivalent to a medium-sized power plant generating capacity.
