On December 22, EVE Energy officially commenced construction of its “EVE Sodium Energy Headquarters and Jinyuan Robotics AI Center” at its Huizhou headquarters, signaling a significant investment as the company positions itself at the forefront of next-generation batteries, artificial intelligence (AI), and robotics.
The move comes amid rapid growth in the sodium-ion battery sector and accelerating developments in AI-driven robotics. EVE Energy’s dual investment reflects both a strategic alignment with industry trends and a long-term vision to drive innovation and sustainable growth.
The sodium battery facility, with a total investment of around 1 billion yuan and a gross floor area of 90,000 sq. meters, is designed as an integrated platform covering research and development, pilot testing, and mass production. The company plans to develop “non-flammable” and “zero-trace” sodium batteries, which offer a wide operating temperature range, high power capability, long cycle life, and enhanced safety. The zero-trace concept refers to low-carbon materials that degrade naturally, enabling zero-carbon battery solutions for AI data center (AIDC) applications. The facility is designed for an annual capacity of 2 GWh, ensuring safe, green power that can quickly respond to fluctuating energy demands.
The Jinyuan Robotics AI Center, spanning 50,000 sq. meters, will integrate the full lifecycle of robotics innovation, from R&D and prototyping to pilot runs, final assembly, and skills training. Guided by a “scenario-driven design and task-driven functionality”philosophy, the center combines robotics with generative AI to deliver full-stack, scenario-based intelligent solutions under a “1+1+N” model.
EVE Energy emphasized the strategic synergy between AI and battery production. Liu, EVE Energy, said, “This dual investment reflects a two-way strategy in the AI era, using AI to drive smarter battery manufacturing while production facilities accelerate AI innovation.”
The park is expected to become a leading domestic hub integrating sodium battery industrialization with AI and robotics innovation, helping reduce lithium dependency, boost energy storage adoption, and accelerate intelligent manufacturing, contributing to the global energy transition.
