The Zhengzhou government published environmental filings on the website on Friday, seeking public feedback on the project.

BYD did not immediately respond to Benzinga’s request for comment.

BYD’s Blade Battery is a less bulky lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery that is safer than other alternatives in the market, according to the company Chairman Wang Chuanfu

The battery is also less prone to catching fire and has been powering BYD’s best-selling battery electric cars, such as the Han and Seal sedans, which compete with Tesla’s Model 3 vehicles in China.
