In the production workshops of Guizhou Kaijin New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., workers on the production lines are busy but orderly. The company has switched its production lines to full-capacity mode to keep pace with a continuous stream of orders from around the world.
Kaijin New Energy established its base in the Dalong Economic Development Zone, Guizhou Province in 2021. It is a high-tech enterprise specialising in the R&D, production, and sale of lithium-ion battery anode materials. Its products are widely used in new energy vehicle batteries, emergency batteries, and energy storage batteries, and the company has established deep partnerships with globally renowned battery manufacturers including CATL, BYD, Panasonic (Japan), and SK Innovation (South Korea).
Armed with its proprietary technologies, Kaijin New Energy is both consolidating its industry position through technical breakthroughs and investing further to expand production capacity. Wang Shichun noted that the company has completed a 100,000 tpa integrated high-performance lithium-ion battery anode material production line at the Dalong Development Zone. This year, Kaijin will also commence construction of a 50,000 tpa integrated graphitisation project to further increase capacity, targeting a revenue scale of RMB 5 billion (~US$732 million).

Looking across the broader Dalong Economic Development Zone, the area has attracted 30 above-scale new functional materials enterprises, including CNGR Advanced Material and Huicheng New Materials. In 2025, this sector generated output value of RMB 25.475 billion (~US$3.73 billion), accounting for 93.34% of the zone’s total above-scale industrial output. The cluster has sustained annual output above RMB 20 billion (~US$2.93 billion) for four consecutive years, demonstrating a pronounced industrial agglomeration effect.
