Core Viewpoint - Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) has officially entered the hydropower station business by investing in the Dadu River Danba Hydropower Station project, marking its first investment in hydropower [2][3]. Group 1: Investment Details - The Dadu River Danba Hydropower Development Co., Ltd. was established with a registered capital of 3.6 billion yuan, with CATL holding a 10% stake [2]. - The total dynamic investment for the Danba Hydropower Station project is 15.273 billion yuan, with a capital ratio of 30%, and CATL's direct investment amounts to 458 million yuan [6]. - The project is expected to generate an annual power output of 4.718 billion kilowatt-hours, with a calculated electricity price of 0.2974 yuan per kilowatt-hour [6]. Group 2: Strategic Implications - This investment aligns with CATL's strategic shift towards becoming an energy comprehensive service provider, moving beyond battery manufacturing to include renewable energy solutions [7][8]. - The project is part of a broader strategy to achieve carbon neutrality, with CATL aiming for core operational carbon neutrality by 2025 and value chain carbon neutrality by 2035 [12]. - By securing clean electricity through this hydropower investment, CATL can reduce the carbon footprint of its battery production processes, which is crucial for compliance with international regulations like the EU's "Battery Passport" [13][14]. Group 3: Industry Context - The Dadu River Danba project is a key construction project under China's 14th Five-Year Plan for renewable energy development, expected to save approximately 1.507 million tons of standard coal and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by over 3 million tons annually [15]. - The collaboration with the State Power Investment Corporation aims to leverage CATL's technological advantages in energy storage to enhance grid regulation capabilities [15].

江河奔腾，见证央企担当；碧水安澜，涌动绿色动能。 "十四五"以来，中国大唐锚定"双碳"目标，深耕西南水电沃土，以愚公移山的韧劲、鲁班造物的精工， 铸就一座座精品水电站。截至目前，中国大唐水电在役规模达2772万千瓦，占全国水电总装机容量 6.3%，为长江经济带、珠江流域高质量发展注入强劲绿色动力。 打造"中国人的争气工程" 从乌江深处的悬崖峭壁到红水河畔的峡谷险滩，中国大唐一项项标志性水电工程，展现着中国水电的硬 核实力。 在乌江之畔的重庆彭水，装机175万千瓦的彭水水电站巍然矗立，自2008年投产以来，该水电站累计产 出绿色电能超960亿千瓦时，用清洁能源点亮了万家灯火。 谁曾想，这片平整的厂区二十年前还是高山险壑、交通闭塞。2003年一声开山炮响，中国大唐建设者们 接过国家"十五"能源规划的重任，直面"强岩溶、窄河谷、大泄量"三重考验，创新采用地下洞室高边墙 无盖重固结灌浆技术，一举攻克了岩锚梁施工等世界级难题。 最终，这座乌江梯级开发的关键工程创下多项纪录：大坝表孔单宽泄量居国内外同类工程之首，引水隧 洞规模刷新同期国内纪录，更成为国内首座采用变顶高尾水隧洞尾水流道体形的水电站。中国建设工程 鲁班奖、国 ...
