BYD Jinan Base: Smart Manufacturing Drives Industrial Chain Growth

The BYD Jinan Base, a significant industrial endeavor in the Start-up Area, represents a total investment of 15 billion yuan. It encompasses the complete production chain for vehicles and their core components. The facility has implemented an integrated system of “intelligent perception, flexible manufacturing, and digital management,” establishing a new standard for intelligent automotive manufacturing. To support this key project, the Start-up Area has allocated nearly 400 hectares of land, generating 26,000 jobs, facilitating the establishment of supporting businesses, and attracting clusters of semiconductor and power battery projects. This has spurred the advancement of a new energy vehicle industrial chain.

Charging-Swap Demonstration Station: Zero-Carbon Pioneer Empowers Green Mobility

China’s first comprehensive vehicle-grid interactive charging and battery-swap demonstration station, built around the concept of “100% green electricity and zero carbon emissions,” includes four functional zones: vehicle-grid interaction, zero-carbon demonstration, commercial fast charging, and energy storage battery swap. With 123 charging/swapping bays, the station accommodates over 36,000 new energy vehicles in the region, meeting various charging requirements. Its liquid-cooled 600kW ultra-fast charging guns can deliver 100 kWh of power in 10 minutes, while the energy storage battery swap stations can handle up to 280 swaps per day, also serving as a grid-balancing resource.

Industrial Ecosystem Converges, Forging New Energy Hub

The Start-up Area has drawn projects like Aikosolar’s photovoltaic cells, Shandong Energy’s perovskite battery initiative, and SPIC’s hydrogen energy base. These projects are strengthening the comprehensive “production-application-service” ecosystem in new energy, demonstrating Jinan’s strong progress toward achieving its “dual-carbon” goals.
