On August 9, Zhai Hong, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Yangmei Group, presided over a video conference to advance the Zhongke Haina project for manufacturing sodium-ion batteries from anthracite. Zhai Hong called for accelerating the work pace further to ensure the project is implemented as soon as possible. Strengthen top-level planning, increase investment in research and development, reduce production costs, and develop plans for future projects in order to promote the high-quality transformation and development of Yangquan Coal. Yu Beijian, Deputy General Manager, and Gao Yanqing, Party Committee Secretary and Chief Accountant, attended the meeting in the conference room on the first floor of the office building. The meeting was connected via video to Tang Kun, General Manager of Zhongke Haina Technology Co., Ltd., and Liu Qiankun, Founder and President of Wutongshu Capital. After listening to Tang Kun’s presentation on the project feasibility study report, Zhai Hong noted that the project is in line with the relevant policies of the **strategic plan, and it holds broad market prospects in areas such as power batteries for low-speed electric vehicles like electric bicycles, as well as energy storage batteries for **smart grids. Yangquan Coal is accelerating its transformation and development to explore new paths, speeding up the development of the \"six new\" industries, extending the value chain of anthracite, increasing the added value of coal, and striving to achieve the conversion of coal into carbon. Zhai Hong called for accelerating the work pace further, including this project among the matters under the \"13710\" supervision and follow-up system, requiring weekly reports to swiftly advance the implementation of the project. During project construction, it is necessary to strengthen top-level design, increase research efforts, and reduce production costs. Led by the Equity Investment Department, efforts will be made to reach a consensus with Wutongshu Capital on relevant matters as soon as possible. The New Energy Division needs to strengthen its staffing, focus on conducting preliminary research for projects and preparing feasibility reports, and enhance the management of production, sales, and marketing aspects for both existing and new projects. At the same time, it is necessary to formulate plans for the next phase of project development, carry out market research and studies on applicable scenarios, etc., in order to promote the high-quality transformation and development of Yangquan Coal. Zhongke Haina Technology Co., Ltd. is a high-tech enterprise dedicated to the research and development and production of next-generation energy storage systems – sodium-ion batteries. It focuses on sodium-ion battery products that feature low cost, long lifespan, high safety, and high energy density, with potential applications in areas such as low-speed electric vehicles, large-scale energy storage, electric vehicles, and **safety. The participants also offered suggestions and opinions on the project feasibility report.
