This project is a benchmark project of CATL New Energy, and many urgent problems during the project implementation process were raised. For example, due to design errors, the installation work can’t be done rightly. Houng Fuh adhered to the principle of customer first and rushed to the site thousands of miles away within 24 hours, and made a rectification plan overnight, which was praised by the client. The system is under commissioning. And the installation of EVE project is also nearing completion, and will be put in production in May 2023.And the conveying system of CALB and JEVE have already started normal production.

Compared to ordinary projects, the requirements for new energy projects are relatively strict. All rollers and related screw accessories are made of stainless steel and the rollers need to be coated with glue. The use of zinc and copper materials is prohibited. The fire sink, after a fire alarm, is automatically placed in the sink to extinguish the fire. This is a special equipment specifically designed for new energy.

The successful implementation of these projects indicates that Houng Fuh has comprehensive capabilities in the field of new energy to serve more customers. Houng Fuh will certainly continue to pay much attention to the new energy field and customize more solutions that meet the industry's needs for customers.
