Guizhou Zhixi Technology Co., Ltd. is an enterprise introduced by Honghuagang District, dedicated to the research and industrial production of new energy storage vanadium battery technology. At present, the first phase of the company's production line has been completed and entered the equipment debugging and trial production stage.

At the production workshop of Guizhou Zhixi Technology Co., Ltd. located in the Yingtian Gonggu Industrial Park in Zunyi, workers are intensifying equipment debugging, familiarizing themselves with production equipment and processes, and preparing for the upcoming formal production.

"A manual stack production line, membrane carriage production line, and semi-automatic stack assembly production line have been established, and all equipment has entered the operation and commissioning stages respectively," said Lu Meng, Deputy General Manager of Guizhou Zhixi Technology Co., Ltd.

Guizhou Zhixi Technology Co., Ltd. is a key project signed in Honghuagang District in 2022, mainly engaged in the research and development and industrial production of new energy storage vanadium battery technology. Its products are mainly used in the energy storage field. The CME series perfluorinated ion membrane is one of the core products independently developed and produced by the company. The product is prepared using a new process, which has advantages such as high tensile strength, high conductivity, good chemical properties, and also has a self humidifying effect. After testing, the mechanical strength of perfluorinated ion membranes at the same thickness and size exceeds 80% of traditional imported membranes, making them suitable as solid electrolyte separators in fuel cells, vanadium batteries, electrolytic cells, and electrochemical sensors.

Zhang Qing, Deputy General Manager of Technology at Guizhou Zhixi Technology Co., Ltd., introduced, "The company's first wet casting method has been granted invention patents in more than 30 countries, filling the gap in the entire Chinese market. It is applied to all vanadium flow batteries, and independent production can greatly reduce the cost of the entire system or stack, with a decrease of about 3% -5%. The company's product performance has received high praise from the public, providing strong support for the entire vanadium flow battery, long-term energy storage material supply, and the core industry chain of all fluorine ion membranes."

In addition to perfluorinated ion membranes, the company also produces products with core technologies such as vanadium batteries, battery stacks, and electrolytes. It has production workshops such as sublimation electrolyte production plant, vanadium battery R&D center, ion membrane production workshop, battery stack production workshop, vanadium battery component production workshop, and vanadium battery modular system assembly workshop. It has also cooperated with Zunyi Energy Mining Group, Three Gorges Group, Huadian Group, and Guohua Group to obtain some intended orders.

After the company is officially put into operation, it will continue to promote the construction of production lines, strengthen the layout of the industrial chain, rely on its own all vanadium flow battery and high-quality ion membrane production technology, and fully build the energy storage industry chain. It will also strengthen cooperation with universities and research institutes to develop core technologies for the industrialization of all vanadium flow batteries with core competitiveness, and promote the high-quality development of the new energy industry.

"In the later stage, the company will also add three fully automatic production lines and two film casting machine production lines, striving to deliver the 300 MW production capacity of Building 6 as soon as possible. All equipment in the film workshop will be put into trial operation, with an annual output of 100000 square meters and an annual output value of 300 million yuan. The full load operation of the stack production line can reach 300 megawatt hours and an annual output value of 750 million yuan," said Lu Meng.
