3.7.2020 Stuttgart. Mercedes-Benz CO2-neutral mobility is an important step in the transformation comes from. Stuttgart-based premium manufacturer Energy battery manufacturer in China, Paradise (R) is associated with the collaboration. Ltd. capital contributions, including a comprehensive strategic partnership.
This step “Ambition2039 within the framework of Mercedes-Benz is an important milestone in the path to CO2 neutrality”. Cost the basic elements of the agreement in the position of advanced cell technologies and the development of the ambitious industrialization targets. Planning process the contract for enhancing the capacity of security Electric for assault, battery cells, safe supply Mercedes Benz offers.
The increasing demand for future use the German Mercedes-Benz plants in response generates no money Bitterfeld-Wolfen a factory for the creation of new jobs and 2 thousand battery cells. The eastern site from the beginning, CO2-neutral factory will be designed.
“More electric drive ‘make a decisive step in the implementation and expand it Electric our first’ we are pleased to introduce our partnership with Rat. Through strategic expansion of our business relationship, we are pushing forward the electrification of our portfolio model. With the deal, we bring expertise in the field of battery cell development. At the same time, provided support and new plant paradise more important technology, Germany, and we will encourage the development of sustainable housing. The management board of Daimler AG and Mercedes-Benz AG Markus Schäfer, member of the Daimler Group Research and Mercedes-Benz Cars responsible for COO with our partners CO2-neutral mobility with a common vision of a more sustainable world we share,“ he says.
Hubertus Troska, Daimler AG executive board responsible for Greater China, the world’s largest market for electric vehicles in China, says: “and has great potential for further growth. With strong and reliable partners in our local area is trying to expand in China already, but at the same time, we’re here to strengthen our competitiveness in the world. Chinese battery manufacturer on the first pile, the advantage to pursue our strategy in the Chinese market, potential partners, innovative technology and global electricity we want to take. In the future, in China, research and development, production and purchasing, we will expand our activities.“
The strategic partnership with Mercedes-Benz’s sustainability activities have deepened and strengthens existing business relationships with the supplier with participation of three percent battery. Daimler is investing an amount of money with the Euro Millions This contains the Great Wall of China IPO.
Participation is subject to necessary regulatory approvals. As a result, the battery cell by the manufacturer Daimler has the opportunity to appoint a representative to a seat on the supervisory board. The management board of Daimler AG and Mercedes-Benz AG Markus Schäfer, member of the Daimler Group Research and Mercedes-Benz Cars COO charge, a period of twelve months, registration, and he intends to take over after subjected to the electoral process.
With the mouse are added to existing contracts, and, in addition to the technical and commercial building blocks of contract, legal and sustainability requirements were advanced. Under some technological and commercial conditions of the supplier at an early stage in the project of Mercedes-Benz products, you can enter for future generations of EQ.
With a mouse as a strategic partner Mercedes-Benz is set as a cornerstone of available battery cells suppliers. A prerequisite for a balanced lieferante best possible access technology and is the basis for the competition.
Advanced battery Investment know-Mercedes-Benz continues.
A comprehensive intelligence battery and a highly complex system. Performance, defines the characteristics of an electric vehicle in terms of range and charging time. Mercedes-Benz A comprehensive approach to all the battery technology, attaches importance to basic research and development series maturity. Cell battery the heart and chemistry is very important Master.
The purpose of net development, thanks to improvements in energy intensity, at least load times significantly, future battery technologies increase the range of batteries is to advance the maturity of and meaningful future. The efficiency of the batteries of electric vehicles will enhance the sustainability of the future. The reduction of these critical cell materials and CO2 neutral production, operational efficiency, recycling, raw material and begins with a closed cycle. Together with its partners, Mercedes-Benz the fastest possible industrialization of the new technologies also continues.
Global demand for electricity to run electric tools flexible and efficient local Battery Manufacturing Company-aggressive and a key element for success is an important factor. Mercedes-Benz global production network global production network development and highly efficient battery systems in battery production are concentrated. These consist of nine factories in seven locations across three continents in the future.
Mercedes-Benz refers to the battery cells of the different partners in the world market, and the latest technologies, global production network, as well as provides access to the source. In the field of drive systems, research and development expertise in extremely complex and cell production, production, Mercedes-Benz brings the correct depth how the appropriate features about the supplier I know.
Sustainability as an integral part of the partnership
Already in the summer of 2019 Mercedes-Benz adopted the framework for partnership and sustainability. For example, hydropower, electricity from renewable energies such as wind and solar power with battery cells of the first result. EQ new-generation vehicles, luxury sedan, fully equipped including EQS, partially CO2-neutral with the battery cells will be.
Key industrialization technology development for battery manufacturers China Electric Mobility Daimler and actively participation. In China, the supplier of battery cells CO2-neutral facility built in Shanghai location.
In East Germany the location of Bitterfeld-Wolfen is currently planning and CO2-neutral from the beginning are aligned. At another plant in the US will follow. Thus, where the joint is produced by Mercedes-Benz, shop there, strategy focused.
All accelerated electric model portfolio
This “Electric-First”strategy, Mercedes-Benz is applying for electricity within the framework of model types and all vehicle types. In less than 20 years,-Benz cars CO2-neutral fleet of Mercedes new car and used car sales hybrid or pure electric vehicles by 2030 more than 50 others already receipt the company wants to ensure.
Already today electric series, Mercedes-Benz trucks, vans and buses are full. By the end of this year, five full-electric car models and 20 plug-in Hybrid variants on the market must be. Plug-in hybrid electric variants of the Model S with ranges up to 100 km in portfolio GLE Class GLA extends.
Also, the battery-electric side, the model continues to attack. Full electric Mercedes models already available tool-7 kWh/100 km; [1] CO2 emissions combined: 0 g/km, smart, intelligent EQ 2, and EQ-four-four-EQV models and 300 (power consumption: 26,4-was 26.3 kWh/100 km; CO2 emissions combined: 0 g/km)[2] combined (400 4Matic consumption Bee:) BEE Benz. But at the same time completely electric variants in the compact segment, the electrical EQUALIZER is completely sustainable luxury in the premium segment as the starting blocks already.
