February 26, 2026 — Vice General Manager Xia Fawan takes the Bijie delegation to the new production base of Zhongxin General’s subsidiary Boruian New Energy, currently under construction, showcasing Zhongxin General’s strategic expansion into industrial energy storage systems.

A standout highlight of the visit was Mr. Xia Fawan’s guided tour of the newly established production base of Zhongxin General’s subsidiary, Boruian New Energy, which specializes in industrial-scale energy storage systems.

The significance of this particular stop cannot be overstated. The Bijie project’s core output includes lithium iron phosphate (LFP) — the dominant cathode material in today’s grid-scale energy storage batteries. By touring Boruian’s energy storage manufacturing facility, the delegation was effectively exploring a natural downstream application scenario for their own upstream material production. This convergence opens the door to a compelling vertical supply chain synergy: Bijie producing the raw material, Boruian manufacturing th energy storage systems that depend on it.

The active construction of Boruian New Energy’s new base also demonstrated to the delegation Zhongxin General’s serious commitment to the new energy sector — not just as a future plan, but as a concrete, capital-backed strategic investment already underway.

Visit 2: Chengdu Construction Engineering Group Co., Ltd. — March 2, 2026

About the Client: A CNY 100-Billion State-Owned Construction Giant

Chengdu Construction Engineering Group Co., Ltd. is a state-owned enterprise under the Chengdu SASAC, founded in 1954. With total assets exceeding CNY 100 billion, the group has ranked among China’s Top 80 Contractors for 19 consecutive years and has appeared in the China Top 500 Enterprises list 11 times.

What These Two Visits Mean: Zhongxin General at a Strategic Inflection Point

Two landmark client visits in under a week, upon resuming work after the Spring Festival, is a clear signal. Here is what it reveals about Zhongxin General’s current market position:

1. Proven Capability to Serve China’s Largest Industrial Projects

Both the Bijie Phosphate-Coal project (CNY 73 billion) and Chengdu Construction (CNY 100+ billion in assets) operate at a scale that demands suppliers pass rigorous technical and operational vetting before a site visit even occurs. The fact that both chose to visit Zhongxin General within the same week reflects genuine, research-backed interest — not casual inquiry.

2. Energy Storage as a Powerful Business Differentiator

The Bijie delegation’s interest in Borean New Energy’s manufacturing base signals that Zhongxin General’s strategic pivot into energy storage is already generating commercial attention. As China accelerates its industrial electrification and renewable energy integration agenda, the ability to supply both traditional power distribution equipment and new energy storage systems under one roof is increasingly rare — and increasingly valuable.

3. A Full-Spectrum Electrical Equipment Provider

Across both visits, the products evaluated covered the entire power distribution chain: dry-type transformers → medium & low voltage switchgear → box-type substations → energy storage systems. This breadth positions Zhongxin General not merely as a component supplier, but as a comprehensive electrical infrastructure partner for large-scale projects.

A Strong Start to the Year of the Horse

These two visits in the first week back from Chinese New Year set an energizing tone for Zhongxin General in 2026. As China’s industrial sector continues to expand — from mega chemical complexes in Guizhou to large-scale urban construction across the southwest — the demand for dependable, certified, and technically sophisticated power distribution and energy storage equipment will only grow.

Zhongxin General remains committed to delivering exactly that: precision-engineered electrical solutions backed by rigorous manufacturing standards, decades of project experience, and a forward-looking investment in new energy technologies.
