Wanhua Chemical’s Industry‑Chain Transformation: A Strategic Move into the New Energy Sector

TIME :2026-08-28

Against the backdrop of accelerating global decarbonization, the new energy vehicle and energy storage markets are growing rapidly, while electrochemical energy storage technologies are advancing quickly. Wanhua Chemical has set its sights firmly on the new energy track, making battery materials the Groups second core business. By building integrated capabilities across R&D, resource security, industrial chain support, and green energy synergy, Wanhua is accelerating its overall transformation toward the new energy industry.

 

Securing Upstream Resources to Anchor the Foundation of Raw Material Security

 

A resilient industrial chain begins at the source. To ensure stable supply of core raw materials, Wanhua has extended its reach upstream into mining, making forward-looking investments in the two critical inputsphosphorus and lithium. By securing resources at the origin, Wanhua builds a robust foundation of supply security for its entire new energy value chain.

 

Building a Green Power Industrial Park to Slash Carbon Emissions Across the Value Chain

 

In March 2025, Wanhua Chemical commissioned its Haiyang Green Power Industrial Park, focusing on high-density lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode material production via the advanced iron-phosphate process. The park is designed to achieve two core objectives simultaneously: manufacturing premium cathode materials and enabling low-carbon green production. Operationally, the park is equipped with captive wind and solar power, using clean energy to produce new energy battery materialsthereby reducing carbon emissions across the entire production chain.

 

Extending Downstream to Cover Full-Scenario Battery Material Solutions

 

Leveraging decades of expertise in fine chemicals R&D, Wanhua has expanded downstream to build a comprehensive portfolio of lithium battery supporting materials, including NMP solvent, battery pack structural adhesives, cell potting and sealing adhesives, and lightweight composite functional materials. This enables integrated material supply from internal cell components to complete vehicle packaging. The result is a closed-loop industrial ecosystem spanning "captive green power mineral resources cathode and anode active materials lithium battery auxiliary materials power battery and energy storage end applications."

 

Wanhua will continue to support sustainable development by delivering practical, system-level solutions for the green energy transition.
