Taicang Port in east China's Jiangsu Province has seen a significant surge in new energy vehicle (NEV) exports since the beginning of 2025, with automobile throughput expected to reach 65,000 in the first month.
Taicang Port stands as the largest export base along the Yangtze River for products such as photovoltaics, NEVs, and lithium battery storage cabinets, with exported cars accounting for one-tenth of the national total.
In addition to NEVs, lithium battery storage cabinet manufactured in China have emerged as another hot export item at Taicang Port.
At the Zhenghe International Wharf of Taicang Port, the average daily container throughput reached nearly 10,000 TEUs during the Spring Festival holiday, with the wharf's tower cranes operating around the clock at full capacity.
Various port departments are working in coordination to ensure smooth exports. Additionally, the wharf underwent early reconstruction to meet safety standards for lithium battery storage cabinets.

A mega solar energy storage power station in southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region was put into operation on Saturday.
Located in Qusum County, the Huaneng Jiawa phase I power station has an installed capacity of 250,000 kilowatts, and features a 50 megawatts/200 megawatt-hours energy storage system, making it the largest solar energy storage power project in Xizang to date and representing the latest progress in the region's development of its rich clean energy resources. It can reach a nighttime electricity generation capacity of 200,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) in four consecutive hours, thus effectively guaranteeing local power supply,
"At an average altitude of more than 4,500 meters, the first phase of the Jiawa photovoltaic and energy storage station can generate about 370 million KWH of electricity on average every year after being put into use, which can effectively fill the power supply gap during peak consumption in Xizang, and provide stable clean energy for local economic and social development," said Li Yong, manager of the project.
