In considering the design of power batteries, Microvast has long adhered to the concept of “user-centricity.” That is, thinking from the user’s point of view, beyond the boundaries of traditional battery design, according to actual operational needs. As a Microvast business representative at the GGLB forum said, “Whether bus or taxi companies, their real demand for pure electric vehicles have three aspects: First, ensure operational efficiency; second, lower operating costs, so they can be compared to traditional fuel vehicles; third, lower total cost of ownership.”

It is also based on this understanding, coupled with eight years of persistence and effort, that Microvast could achieve the breakthrough of fast-charging (10-15 minutes), ten thousand cycles of battery life, and high safety in battery technology. As a leading company in fast-charge technology, Microvast established the “fast-charge, long-life, high-safety” direction of technology research and development in 2008, and began large-scale application of fast-charging battery in 2011. In recognition of these accomplishments, Microvast was proud to receive the annual “Innovative Technology” and “Innovative Product” Golden Ball Awards, reflecting the lithium industry’s recognition.
