Rept Battero Energy Co Ltd (HKG: 0666), a power battery maker backed by Chinese stainless steel and nickel giant Tsingshan Industry, plans to build its first overseas factory in Indonesia to expand its presence to overseas markets.
由中国不锈钢和镍业巨头青山工业支持的动力电池制造商Rept Battero Energy Co Ltd（HKG：0666）计划在印度尼西亚建造其第一家海外工厂，以将其业务扩展到海外市场。
Rept's first overseas battery plant will be housed alongside Tsingshan's existing operations in Weda Bay and could begin operations as early as next year, according to a Bloomberg report today.
彭博社今天报道称，Rept的第一家海外电池厂将与青山在威达湾的现有业务并驾齐驱，最早可能在明年开始运营。
Many battery makers are building plants and ramping up in Europe and North America, but their capacity isn't expected to be operational until around 2026 or later, said Jason Hong, US general manager of Rept, adding that the company wants to build a plant in Indonesia ahead of them.
Rept美国总经理杰森·洪说，许多电池制造商正在欧洲和北美建造工厂并扩大产能，但预计它们的产能要到2026年左右或更晚才能投入运营，并补充说，该公司希望提前在印度尼西亚建造一座工厂。
Rept aims to get a head start on rivals planning new capacity elsewhere in the world and capitalize on its parent company's raw material and infrastructure advantages, the report noted.
报告指出，Rept的目标是抢占竞争对手在世界其他地方计划新产能的先机，并利用其母公司的原材料和基础设施优势。
Indonesia's labor and power costs are similar to China's, while Tsingshan has a comprehensive infrastructure built, and its extensive experience will help with budget estimates, Hong said.
洪说，印度尼西亚的劳动力和电力成本与中国相似，而青山已经建立了全面的基础设施，其丰富的经验将有助于预算估算。
"We also have a good relationship with the Indonesian government, which is supportive of new energy sectors," he added.
他补充说：“我们还与印度尼西亚政府保持着良好的关系，后者支持新能源行业。”
Rept was founded in October 2017 and began mass production and delivery of lithium-ion batteries in April 2019.
