Located in the city’s Bishan District, the factory is currently the only production base for the Blade Battery. It possesses a highly demanding production environment and much of BYD's self-developed Blade Battery production equipment. The factory has a total investment of 10 billion yuan with an annual production capacity of 20GWH.
The blade battery is an in-house development from BYD. The name refers to the unusual format: the pouch cells are very long and therefore resemble a sword blade. The elongated cells, which are produced exclusively using LFP chemistry, are installed in the battery packs at right angles to the direction of travel.
In addition to solving the issue of endurance – once a previous limiter to the development of traditional lithium iron phosphate batteries – the Blade Battery can be charged from 10% to 80% of its full capacity within 33 minutes, supporting the BYD Han EV's acceleration of zero to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds.
FAW has already been using BYD blade batteries in the Hongqi E-QM5 for some time, for example. The blade battery is an in-house development from BYD. The name refers to the unusual format: the pouch cells are very long and therefore resemble a sword blade.
According to Sun Huajun, the Vice General Manager of FinDreams Battery, these demanding conditions are a “necessary foundation” to the Blade Battery’s high safety standards. “The nearly one-meter-long pole piece can achieve tolerances of within ±0.3mm, and the accuracy and speed of a single-piece lamination have an efficiency of 0.3s/pcs.
The partners had started construction of the new production facility in February 2022 and had originally planned to start series production in September 2023. The joint venture FAW FinDreams New Energy Technology (FinDreams is the BYD brand for third-party business with eMobility components) will manufacture blade batteries in Changchun.
