China BAK Battery, Inc. (CBAT) Latest News
24 Sep
CBAK Energy Technology Limited signed an investment agreement with the Nanjing Gaochun Economic Development Zone to research, develop and manufacture large cylindrical sodium-ion battery cells and integrated battery systems in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. The deal would add 12 GWh of annual cell production capacity, advancing the company’s sodium-ion expansion plan. Separately, CBAK targets a 6 GWh expansion at its existing Nanjing facility by year-end 2026, more than doubling current annual capacity from 4.5 GWh to 10.5 GWh. Full output from the 6 GWh expansion could generate approximately RMB 2.4–2.7 billion ($356–$400 million) in annual revenue; the 12 GWh project could bring roughly RMB 4.8–5.0 billion ($712–$741 million) per year. Production lines would be designed for sodium-ion or lithium-ion cells, with phasing and financing determined by demand, feasibility and financing conditions. Expansion and diversification into sodium-ion with a 12 GWh project plus a 6 GWh expansion significantly broadens capacity and revenue potential, contingent on financing and market demand.

CBAK Energy Technology Limited signed an investment agreement with Nanjing Gaochun Economic Development Zone to develop large cylindrical sodium-ion battery cells and integrated systems in Nanjing, Jiangsu. The project would add 12 GWh of annual cell production capacity, advancing the company’s sodium-ion expansion. Separately, CBAK targets a 6 GWh increase at its existing Nanjing facility by year-end 2026, nearly doubling its current capacity to 10.5 GWh. The 12 GWh project is expected to advance in the second half of 2027, subject to financing. At Nanjing, 6 GWh expansion will support Model 60150 demand; the facility currently has 4.5 GWh of annual Model 32140 capacity. The 12 GWh lines could be configured for either sodium-ion or lithium-ion cells, depending on market demand, with estimated annual revenue of RMB 2.4-2.7b from the 6 GWh expansion and RMB 4.8-5.0b from the 12 GWh project, assuming full output. Testing underway. Significant strategic expansion into sodium-ion with large capacity and dual-chemistry flexibility could materially alter CBAT's growth trajectory, subject to financing.
