The comprehensive work plan for energy conservation and emission reduction in the 14th five year plan (hereinafter referred to as the "work plan") recently released by the State Council proposes that by 2025, the sales of new energy vehicles will reach about 20% of the total sales of new vehicles. Driven by the consumption demand of new energy vehicles, Byd Company Limited(002594) , beiteri and other lithium battery industry companies announced production expansion plans to meet the rapidly growing market demand through capacity expansion.
strong consumption potential
The work plan proposes to strengthen energy conservation and emission reduction projects in transportation and logistics, and increase the proportion of new energy vehicles used in urban public transport, leasing, logistics, sanitation and cleaning.

While encouraging the consumption of new energy vehicles, the work plan also points out that we should orderly promote the construction of infrastructure such as charging and changing electricity, filling (gas), hydrogenation and shore power of ports and airports. Data show that by the end of 2021, China had built 75000 charging stations, 2.617 million charging piles, 1298 replacement power stations, and more than 10000 power battery recycling service outlets in 31 provinces and cities across the country.
AVIC securities predicts that the number of replacement power stations in China will be more than 20000 in 2025. Based on this, it is estimated that the investment in new replacement power stations during the 14th Five Year Plan period will reach 127.6 billion yuan and the operation market space of replacement power stations will reach 109.1 billion yuan.
