In the spring sunshine of Guizhou’s Dalong Economic Development Zone, a wave of new energy materials construction is in full swing. At the construction site of the key supporting project for the zone’s anode battery material industry — Guizhou Depu New Materials Technology Co., Ltd.’s 20,000 tpa lithium-ion anode material production line — 50 workers are seizing the good weather to push forward construction, adding new momentum to the development zone’s lithium battery anode material supply chain.
As a key supporting component of the zone’s anode material industry, the project has consistently maintained rapid progress. According to project manager Ran Changqing, construction has now entered a critical phase: the Building 2 general complex has completed foundation cap work; Building 3 has finished roof and wall panel installation, with insulation work to follow, reaching an overall completion rate of 80% and expected to be handed over by the end of this month. Building 4’s steel structure is fully complete, with workers carrying out protective coating work, at 70% completion and planned for handover by the end of April. All stages of construction are proceeding on schedule.
The project is being invested in and built by Guizhou Depu New Materials Technology Co., Ltd., with a total investment of CNY 300 million (~USD 43.5 million) and a total construction area of approximately 140,000 square metres. It primarily involves the construction of standardised factory buildings, warehouses, general office buildings, and ancillary facilities, along with supporting infrastructure including roads, water supply and drainage, and fire protection systems. Once fully completed and operational, the project is expected to achieve annual output value of CNY 100 million (~USD 14.5 million), annual tax revenue of approximately CNY 6.5 million (~USD 943,000), and provide 80 jobs. It will not only facilitate local employment but also further strengthen the development zone’s lithium battery anode material supply chain, filling in key gaps for industrial cluster development.
Note: All CNY figures converted to USD at an approximate rate of 1 USD = 6.89 CNY as of 3 April 2026.
