On September 1, the “2024 World Power Battery Conference” was held in Yibin, Sichuan. In the afternoon, BYD CTO Sun Huajun delivered a speech at the global advanced battery forward-looking technology conference. He mentioned that the new energy industry should think about sustainable development, not blindly expand, and rationally arrange production capacity. He also mentioned that security technology must be comprehensively conquered. Regarding battery innovation, he said that it is necessary to continue to strengthen research and development of next-generation batteries, such as solid-state batteries and new materials. “Sulfide solid-state batteries are one direction”, and sulfide solid-state batteries will achieve breakthroughs in the fields of battery life and fast charging. Sun Huajun believes that 2027 to 2029 is a demonstration period for sulfide solid-state batteries, mainly for mid-range and high-end electric vehicles. From 2030 to 2032, sulfide solid state batteries will enter an expansion period and will be used in mainstream electric vehicles.
