CATL (03750.HK) unveiled its third-generation Qilin battery at its Tech Day 2026 ‘event, achieving a supercharging equivalent of 10C and a peak rate of 15C, according to Chinese media. The battery's gravimetric energy density reached 280Wh/kg, with a volumetric energy density of 600Wh/L and a driving range exceeding 1,000km. In terms of charging time, it takes only 1 minute to charge from 10% to 35%, and just 6 minutes and 27 seconds to reach 98% from 10%, surpassing the same metrics of BYD COMPANY (01211.HK)'s second-generation Blade Battery released in March 2026. Wu Kai, Chief Scientist of CATL and Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, stated at the event that sodium-ion batteries have broad applications in travel scenarios like high-temperature, extremely cold environment and in the energy storage sector. CATL has resolved key manufacturing challenges related to sodium-ion batteries, and will achieve large-scale mass production within the year. Auto-translated by AI AASTOCKS Financial News |
