It was a common ideal shared by everyone in Ronbay to “develop new energy industry and improve the humankind’s living
environment”, which was also the social responsibility to be fulfilled by us. Centered on our “Battery Triangle Strategy”, we focused
on such business fields as battery disassembly, recycling and cascade utilization to further develop an “ecological” cyclic industrial
chain. Meanwhile, in order to respond to the national policies of “carbon peak and neutrality”, we were striving to develop and use
clean energy, keep tapping our potential in energy saving and carbon reduction, so as to provide strong guarantee for the building
of zero-carbon factories. In addition, we implemented the environment protection concept of “zero accidents, zero penalties, zero
complaints”, established and promoted a scientific environment management system, continually reduced the environmental
impacts of our own operations and developed an environment-friendly enterprise by means of reducing the pollutant discharge,
recycling and reusing our wastes and “digital” empowering.
We expanded from the industrial chain of positive electrode material to the “battery triangle” cyclic industrial chain, actively
deployed business such as battery disassembly, recycling, extraction, refinement and mineral in the upstream of our supply
chain, and deployed business such as battery operation and cascade utilization in the downstream of our supply chain,
so as to form a complete battery triangle strategy and provide strong guarantee for the “ecological” development of our
