Group 2: Market Context - By the end of 2024, Sichuan Province is expected to have 1.402 million new energy vehicles, with Chengdu having 932,500, indicating a significant market for waste battery recycling [3][4]. - A large-scale "retirement wave" of waste power batteries is anticipated in the next two to three years, presenting a promising market outlook for recycling [3][4]. Group 3: Current Industry Status - Sichuan has 11 comprehensive utilization enterprises and 512 recycling service points, with a total utilization capacity of approximately 69,000 tons [5]. - Only 2 enterprises in Sichuan meet national comprehensive utilization standards, accounting for 1.2% of the national total, indicating a significant gap in industry standardization [5]. Group 4: Future Development Focus - Sichuan will focus on two main areas: accelerating the construction of regional centers and cultivating a provincial "white list" of enterprises to ensure compliance with technical standards and safety requirements [5]. - The aim is to establish 4 to 5 regional centers and to eliminate non-compliant enterprises, promoting healthy and sustainable industry development [5].
