On August 24, SCC Group was invited by CATL to attend the official opening ceremony of China's first heavy-duty truck battery swap corridor — the Shenyang–Haikou Expressway Ningde–Xiamen Trunk Line — witnessing a milestone moment for the road freight industry's entry into the 'zero-carbon' era.

It was learned at the ceremony that the Ningde–Xiamen line spans a total distance of 680 kilometers, with four battery swap stations installed along the route, capable of meeting the simultaneous battery swap and energy replenishment needs of no fewer than 200 heavy-duty trucks. This will effectively address the 'range anxiety' and 'recharging anxiety' associated with new energy heavy-duty trucks.

The completion of the Ningde–Xiamen line represents a pioneering practice in green and efficient development of domestic trunk logistics, accelerating the road freight industry's transition into the 'zero-carbon' era.

The opening of the Ningde–Xiamen line not only marks a significant milestone in the electrification of heavy-duty trucks but also serves as the starting point for us to seize carbon opportunities and jointly embrace a carbon-neutral future.

Qiji Battery Swap Unleashes Energy Efficiency Advantages

The Ningde–Xiamen Line Connects 'Lucid Waters and Lush Mountains' with 'Mountains of Gold and Silver'

Under the dual-carbon targets, the electrification of heavy-duty trucks has become an unstoppable trend. CATL has introduced Qiji Battery Swap, the world's first self-developed one-stop chassis battery swap solution for heavy-duty trucks, enabling electric heavy-duty trucks to achieve safe, fast, and low-cost full-power dispatch, opening up vast opportunities for building a nationwide heavy-duty truck battery swap network. With the official deployment of the Qiji battery swap solution, China's first heavy-duty truck battery swap green logistics dedicated corridor — the Ningde–Xiamen Line — has broken through the limitations of 'point-based' application scenarios, heralding a new era for electric heavy-duty truck development.

The Ningde–Xiamen Line is located along the Shenyang–Haikou Expressway Fuzhou Ring Expressway section, spanning approximately 420 kilometers, with four battery swap stations equipped along the route. It integrates Qiji battery swap blocks, Qiji battery swap stations, and the Qiji cloud platform, fully leveraging the innovative technology and operational model advantages of the Qiji one-stop battery swap solution to resolve the 'range anxiety' and 'recharging anxiety' experienced by heavy-duty truck drivers traveling between Ningde and Xiamen, thereby constructing an environmentally friendly, economical, and efficient heavy-duty truck battery swap corridor.

Relying on the Qiji battery swap solution, based on Fujian Province's heavy-duty truck fleet of 120,000 vehicles, and adopting a vehicle-battery separation business model, without factoring in fuel price fluctuations and without increasing vehicle acquisition costs, logistics costs can be reduced by approximately RMB 3 billion annually, while carbon emissions can be cut by over 18 million tons.

The opening of the Ningde–Xiamen Line will powerfully promote the transformation of old growth drivers into new ones, optimize industrial structure, and accelerate Fujian's development into an ecologically advanced province, truly achieving the organic unity of 'lucid waters and lush mountains' and 'mountains of gold and silver.'
