Minister of Industry Opened the largest Electric Battery Plant in ASEAN

Today (December 12, 2021) at Amita Technology (Thailand) Co., Ltd., Chachoengsao Province Mr. Suriya Soroongkit, the Minister of Industry presided over the ceremony to open a lithium-ion battery factory and a full range of energy storage systems. fashionable Has the largest capacity.

In ASEAN region, Mr. Suchat Chomnom, the Minister of Labour, Mr. Distat Hotrakit, Secretary-General, Gavin Tungsupanich, Energy Secretary, Assoc. Prof. Sumantha Promboon, President of Chitrallada Institute of Technology, Mr. Maitri Tritilanan, Governor of Chachoengsao Province with representatives from government agencies and private sectors, educational institutions and related executives participated in the ceremony. Mr. Somphot Ahunai, Chief Executive Officer Pure Energy Public Company Limited (EA), a leader in innovation in renewable energy and electric vehicles said that lithium-ion battery plants and energy storage systems would be at the heart of electric vehicle production and the introduction of stable renewable energy in everyday life to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The plant has designed to use modern systems to enable continuous and efficient production, and it can also improve and change production processes more easily to meet future technology needs.

The plant also emphasizes the concept of energy efficiency. Reduce waste caused by the production process, focus as much on recycling in the production process as possible, with cooperation from Amita Technology Inc (Taiwan), which has been a manufacturer and distributor of lithium-ion batteries in Taiwan for more than 20 years. Now, the Pure Energy Group has participated in the scholarship, conveying the experience and technology of building the plant successfully. Through its subsidiaries under the name Amita Technology (Thailand) Co., Ltd., there is a larger production capacity at the World Class level to produce Pouch Cell lithium-ion batteries.

With modern technology and highly secure materials to produce battery cells, it provides a high-power capacity, lightweight, and long service life. It does not contain harmful substances such as acid or lead and uses special techniques to produce cells. Upon expiration of use, recycle it with easy sorting of anode and negative plates. It is an environmentally friendly battery. In addition, Amita’s batteries are designed to match ultra-fast charge technology.

It supports large-scale electric vehicle charging in just 15 minutes and supports up to 3,000 cycles of charging that will be a hallmark for the use of large commercial electric vehicles, whose time factors are the most important aspect of use.”Manufactured lithium-ion batteries can be applied to all types of electric vehicles, whether electric vehicles. Electric Truck To help reduce emissions to the environment caused by internal combustion engines by lithium-ion batteries produced at an early stage of 1 gigawatt or 1,000,000 kW. It can be used in 11-meter electric buses, which drive up to 240 kilometers to 4,160 vehicles per year, and the use of 4,160 electric buses can reduce the amount of GHG emission reduction by about 91,709 tons per year and reduce diesel consumption by more than 97,066,667 liters per year. Compared to diesel-powered buses.

This lithium-ion battery plant and backup system of the Pure Energy Group (EA) under the name amita technology (Thailand) Co., Ltd. The first phase is ready to expand capacity by up to 4 gigawatt hours per year immediately. With a total production area of more than 80,000 square meters, it is a Pouch Cell lithium-ion battery factory and a one-stop power reserve system that uses intelligent and state-of-the-art automated production systems to ensure maximum production efficiency and low cost. This important production base is located in the EEC zone with an area of over 90 rai. It is ready to expand the investment of lithium-ion battery plants and energy storage systems by more than 10 times to the maximum capacity of the ASEAN region of 50 gigawatt hours per year, as well as in areas where investments of related industries are finally fully equipped to create the New S Curve ecosystem.
