01 "King of Invention".
This question cannot be as you say. ”
No, you're having a problem with that logic. ”
In that case, let's stop arguing, go to Mei Gong and let him see it. ”
In the office area on the third floor of Qing'an Energy Storage, two technicians are discussing technical issues.
The Mei Gong they are talking about is Mei Ruoyu, a senior engineer of Qing'an Energy Storage, also known as everyone"King of Invention".。Speaking of this three-point joke and seven-point respectful nickname, it is because Mei Ruoyu has so many invention patents that it is "scary".

Since joining Qing'an Energy Storage in November 2021, he has participated in the research and development of a number of various patents, including more than 30 patentsMore than 900 items
Mei Ruoyu's addition quickly put an end to the controversy. He listened carefully to the discussion between the two colleagues, and then analyzed the problem in depth and gave reference opinions. For more than two years, his colleagues have been convinced by his professionalism and profound skills. In Qing'an Energy Storage, Mei Ruoyu led the team to overcome difficulties and combine theoretical knowledge with practical operation, creating great value for the company. However, Mei Ruoyu did not become complacent because of his achievements, but worked harder to devote himself to technology research and development, such as the one he led the research and development"Explosion-proof pressure relief energy storage cabinet".By setting an electric exhaust mechanism and a pressure relief valve on the top of the cabinet, the hydrogen generated by the battery in the cabinet can be discharged in time, and the safety accident caused by the accumulation of hydrogen in the cabinet can be avoided. Its innovative design of top hydrogen exhaust and explosion venting effectively avoids the hidden danger of injury and heat diffusion to the personnel and peripheral facilities around the equipment. Because of a technology leader like Mei Ruoyu, Qing'an Energy Storage has made remarkable achievements in the field of new generation energy storage.
The energy storage components and systems independently developed by Qing'an Energy Storage are at the leading level in the industry, and the distributed energy storage system has also passedThe second batch of Chongqing's first (set) major technical equipment products were identifiedand have been applied to products and projects. At the same time, it strengthens intelligent and digital operation and maintenance, and independently develops and buildsEnergy storage and smart energy management system, energy Internet of Things platform, energy storage APPThe Qing'an "cloud" series has also caused strong repercussions in the energy storage industry ecosystem and has been highly praised.
People are our most important resource. Li Desheng, chairman of Qing'an Energy Storage, said with a smile, "In order to introduce young talents with high academic qualifications and high levels of doctoral degrees, we plan to apply for a municipal postdoctoral research station. ”

In particular, the outstanding performance in many large-scale key energy storage projects this year reflects the competitiveness of Qing'an Energy Storage's high-safety energy storage system products, fully demonstrates Qing'an's comprehensive strength in energy storage system R&D and manufacturing, and lays a solid project foundation and market foundation for the sustained, high-quality and rapid development of the enterprise.
At the same time, in order to realize cutting-edge technology research, technical verification, and product development and trial production in the field of energy storage, Qing'an Energy Storage was establishedEnergy Storage Safety and Smart Energy Laboratory, which is alsoIt is the only key laboratory in Chongqing focusing on the safety of energy storage systems and smart energy management。After the introduction of a number of postdoctoral fellows, a number of important research results have been made in battery defect identification, battery cell testing, evaluation and suppression, battery thermal runaway early warning and other special researches through a number of special studies such as "lithium battery thermal runaway safety prevention and control", "extreme thermal management" and "efficient active balancing". At present, the company has obtained more than 100 intellectual property rights (including applications), forming its ownCore technical barriers
03 Virtuous cycle
Science City's first energy storage safety and smart energy manufacturing base (Phase I) was officially put into operation.
It is favored by the capital market, and its valuation has increased by 30 times in two years.
The output value exceeded 300 million, showing a state of contrarian growth at the same time.
The number of orders has risen in tandem.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to "actively and steadily promote carbon peak and carbon neutrality", emphasizing that "achieving carbon peak and carbon neutrality is a broad and profound economic and social systemic change", which is a major decision and deployment made by the overall domestic and international situation, and provides a fundamental basis for promoting carbon peak and carbon neutrality.
With follow, how to implement?
In Li Desheng's view, "expanding production" and "expanding the circle" are not only for the rapid growth of enterprises, but more importantly, to participate in the ecological construction of the entire industry - to unite first-line partners in the industry to build a sustainable and intelligent energy ecological environment with advanced technology and complementary industries.
Qing'an Energy Storage is deeply involved in the construction of the Science Valley Energy Storage Power Station Project. Data map.
To realize the safe utilization of energy storage systems and the development of the technology industry, the ability of a company is always limited, which must be the result of the joint efforts of the entire technology chain, industrial chain and ecological chain. Li Desheng said.
That said, even more so. In August this year, at the Chongqing Energy Storage Technology and Industry Development Summit Forum, Qing'an Energy Storage brought together more than 100 upstream and downstream partners with its excellent industry appeal, and successfully promoted 30 top industry experts to join the Chongqing Energy Storage and Smart Energy Industry Technology Innovation Alliance led by Qing'an Energy Storage. At the meeting, Qing'an Energy Storage called on all parties to work together to accelerate the establishment of relevant standards in the field of energy storage safety, lead the healthy development of the industry with standards, and prevent the occurrence of energy storage safety accidents.

Enterprises think so, and the Science City puts the ecological construction of the entire industry in the first place.
The city's goal of building a "33618" modern manufacturing cluster is accelerating the cultivation and expansion of future industries such as new energy and new energy storage, and unremittingly promoting the development of green and low-carbon industries. Science City is also seizing the development opportunities of carbon peak and carbon neutrality, focusing on promoting the introduction and implementation of projects in the fields of clean energy, energy conservation and environmental protection, promoting the integration of low-carbon industrial systems, circular links, and energy substitution, improving the industrial chain and innovation chain related to "double carbon", and accelerating the construction of zero-carbon and low-carbon demonstration parks such as Science Valley and Science ParkIt is a "dual-carbon economy demonstration zone" with national influence.

As a result, we see that in the Science City, enterprises inject vitality into industrial development, and create a good industrial ecology by providing multi-dimensional services, so that the regional industrial ecology once again gives a new development platform to the development of enterprises. This virtuous circle of interaction and mutual promotion makes the three parties win-win. Just like Qing'an energy storage, in the global economic downturn and energy storage industry"The first year is the Red Sea".In the background, both the introduction of capital and the introduction of talents have achieved "reverse growth".
At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, it is the best time to sow the "seeds" of hope.
At the end of the interview, the reporter learned that Qing'an Energy Storage invested more than 100 million yuanThe second phase of the industrial park project of the manufacturing basePre-construction has already begun, and it is expected to be put into operation in 2024. It is foreseeable that the completion and operation of this industrial park will not only inject new vitality into the development of the energy storage industry, but also mean that the new generation of energy storage industry in Science City is about to reach a new level.
Winter is unharmed. This year, I have interviewed Qing'an Energy Storage many times, witnessed many moments imprinted with its figure, and felt the confidence in the eyes of Qing'an people because of innovation. Of course, I also felt from their words the increasing prosperity of the Science Valley Digital Intelligence Science and Technology Innovation Park.
The development path of Qing'an energy storage undoubtedly provides a vivid case for the energy storage industry in Science City. With an open mind, this company actively cooperates with scientific research institutions and enterprises to continuously promote technological innovation, which has made it achieve remarkable results in the field of energy storage. Its success is not accidental, behind it is the dedication to scientific research and the love of the industry. In the laboratory of Qing'an Energy Storage, I have seen passionate researchers working day and night, dedicated to the research and development of energy storage technology. Their efforts have enabled Qing'an Energy Storage to emerge in the field of energy storage, and have also injected a strong impetus into the development of China's energy storage industry.
The rapid growth of Qing'an energy storage is also a microcosm of scientific and technological innovation in Science City. There are many outstanding enterprises and scientific research institutions here, who cooperate with each other to jointly promote the development of the Western (Chongqing) Science City.
