Valence Energy Tech (VET), Suzhou, China
Suzhou, China - Valence Energy Tech
Valence Energy Tech (VET) was established in May 2004 with an initial investment of $15 million. Our two facilities located in close proximity within Suzhou Industrial Park, provide approximately 100,000-square-feet of manufacturing space and employ over 400 workers. The ISO 9001 Certified plants are the core manufacturing facilities for cathode materials and pack manufacturing. VET deploys SPC methods of manufacturing and is currently working towards TS16949 accreditation.
VET is split into the following divisions:
- Manufacturing
- Supply Chain Management (SCM)
- Quality Assurance (QA)
- Product Engineering
- Logistics
To meet growing demand, VET began an extensive capacity expansion program during 2008. The company has invested $4 million in upgrading the two facilities to enable a ramp-up capacity to 100+ metric tones of cathode material per month and almost 20 mega watt hours per month of battery modules. Investments include state of the art furnaces, welding stations wet ball mill and spray dryers.
Focusing on high capacity equipment and automation, VET has maximized floor space usage and minimized head count increases through increased efficiencies and improved processes. Our powder and pack processes are easily scalable to meet future demands. And, VET is planning to develop new product lines including new battery formats and customized solutions such as custom trays.
Since 2006, VET has shipped over 10,000 energy storage modules to customers globally.
