 1.Tesla Shanghai Supercharging Pile Factory officially launched2.5

Tesla Shanghai Supercharging Pile Factory was officially completed and put into operation on February 3rd, and V3 Supercharging Pile started to go offline. It took less than half a year from the project approval in August 2020 to production, which once again reflected “Shanghai speed” and “Tesla speed”.

Tesla Shanghai Supercharging Pile Factory has invested about RMB42 million and covers an area of nearly 5,000 square meters, integrating the functions of R&D and production. It is initially planned to produce 10,000 supercharging piles annually, mainly V3 Supercharging Piles, which are Tesla’s most advanced charging piles at present, with 15-minute charging capable of up to 250 kilometers.

Up to now, Tesla has launched more than 730 supercharging stations in China, and its charging network covers more than 300 cities.

 

2. The container throughput of Yangshan Port reached record high2.10

   In January 2021, the container throughput of Yangshan Port broke the historical record with 1.965 million TEUs, up 17.8% year-on-year.

3. The first semiconductor perfluoro seal production line in China reached full capacity2.20

      On the first working day of the Year of the Ox, Shanghai’s three leading industries, namely integrated circuits, biomedicine and artificial intelligence, have shown their hardcore strength with full power. The first semiconductor perfluoro seal production line in China is running at full speed at Lingang New Area.

The products of Shanghai Xinmi Technology Co., Ltd., located at Lingang New Area, are one of the five main consumables needed for the production of integrated circuits. There is also the first pure “made in China” production line. The ultra-clean, high temperature resistant and strong corrosion resistant perfluorine sealing rings have been delivered to customers since last August and gradually integrated into the value chain of the integrated circuit industry.

Led by senior researchers with PhD in materials science, the R&D team at Shanghai Xinmi features years of R&D experience in perfluororubber in multinationals. Currently, they are studying the 4th-generation perfluororubber sealing products. At the same time, it also conducts targeted research cooperation with well-known universities in China to further expand the performance analysis and testing capabilities of materials and products.
