On the 21st of the month, Binhai Energy issued a statement indicating that it plans to build a project for producing 1,000 tons per year of porous carbon in Xingtai City, Hebei Province, and another project for producing 2,000 tons per year of silicon-carbon anode materials in Baotou City, Inner Mongolia. The total investment for these projects is estimated to be around 548 million yuan. The project is still in the stage of preliminary procedures and construction preparation. It is expected that by launching operations in phases, the company’s product portfolio of anode materials will be gradually improved, thereby establishing a vertical integration framework from precursors to silicon-carbon anode materials, enhancing overall competitiveness and facilitating long-term strategic development. According to the announcement, the porous carbon project will be carried out by Xingtai Xuyang New Energy Technology Co., Ltd.; a production line with an annual capacity of 1,000 tons of porous carbon is planned to be built, with an investment of 120.7 million yuan ； The silicon-carbon anode material project is undertaken by Baotou Xuyang Silicon-Carbon Technology Co., Ltd.; it involves the construction of a production line capable of manufacturing 2,000 tons of silicon-carbon anode materials per year, with an investment of 427.21 million yuan. The company states that through these projects, it can not only expand its range of negative electrode material products but also ensure the stability and consistency of upstream raw material supply, which helps to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and foster collaboration between upstream and downstream partners. At present, the domestic industry for porous carbon and silicon-carbon anode materials is going through a phase of accelerated development and capacity expansion. According to incomplete statistics, in 2025 alone, at least 60+ developments related to silicon-based anodes were disclosed in China, with the planned total production capacity exceeding several hundred thousand tons.
