Liu Fawang, Deputy Director of the Equipment Industry Development Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Xu Ziming, Director of the Energy Storage Department of the Science and Technology Department of the State Energy Administration, Liang Weixin, Secretary of the Ningde Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, and Kang Bosi, Chief Regional Representative of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization. Relevant leaders of China Nuclear Industry Group, State Grid Co., Ltd., China Huadian Group, China Three Gorges on Yangtze River Group, State Energy Investment Group and other central enterprises, as well as well-known experts and scholars from more than ten countries around the world, representatives of industry a ssociations, key enterprises in the energy storage industry chain and representatives of application enterprises attended the opening ceremony. The opening ceremony was presided over by Zhang Yongning, Mayor of Ningde Municipal People's Government. Su Bo, deputy director of

the Economic Committee of the

13th CPPCC National Committee, pointed out that the global energy structure has been accelerated to adjust, the energy system and development model are entering a new stage dominated by non-fossil energy, and the rapid development of new energy has also put forward urgent requirements for the accelerated development of energy storage industry. The development of new energy storage plays an important supporting role in absorbing new energy, peak shaving and valley filling, enhancing the stability of power grid, and improving the regulation ability, comprehensive efficiency and security ability of energy and power system.

Combos, the regional chief representative

of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, pointed out that the new energy storage will change the way we produce, distribute and use energy. This dynamic and growing field is the key and cornerstone for achieving the goal of sustainable development and ensuring the well-being of future generations. The World Energy Storage Conference provides us with an important communication platform to promote cooperation and accelerate the promotion of new energy storage scenarios and applications.

Miao Changxing, a first-level inspector

of the Equipment Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that the scale of China's energy storage industry has expanded rapidly, and the output value of China's lithium-ion battery energy storage industry chain has approached 200 billion yuan in 2022. In the first half of 2023, the installed capacity of new energy storage in operation reached 8.63 million kilowatts, which is equivalent to the total installed capacity in previous years. Next, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will work with all parties concerned to promote the high-quality development of the energy storage industry. The first is to accelerate the upgrading of industrial innovation capability, the second is to focus on pilot verification and scenario traction, the third is to optimize the industrial development ecology, and the fourth is to deepen international cooperation . Liang Weixin, Secretary of

the Ningde Municipal Party Committee of Liang Weixin, delivered a welcoming speech to the conference. He said that Ningde has cultivated four internationally competitive industrial landmarks, namely, lithium and electricity new energy, new energy vehicles, stainless steel new materials and copper materials, which not only engraved Ningde's mark on the world's new energy and new materials industry, but also made Ningde's mark. It also leads Ningde to the "fast lane" of high-quality development and becomes an important growth pole of Fujian Province's development. Relying on the strong leadership of leading enterprises such as Ningde Times, Ningde seized the opportunity and took the lead in running on the energy storage track, with the global market share of energy storage batteries exceeding 40%, ranking first in the world for two consecutive years.

Ningde welcomed the new business card

of "China New Energy Battery Capital", and China Machinery Industry Federation awarded Ningde the title of "China New Energy Battery Capital" .

Ningde will take this honor as an opportunity to continue to develop the new energy battery industry with high quality, take scientific and technological progress and technological innovation as the driving force, take market demand as the guide, accelerate industrial upgrading and structural adjustment, further improve product quality, and continue to promote brand strategy, so as to lead the scientific and technological innovation of new energy batteries. The goal is to build a world-class core area of new energy and new materials and a world-class superior industrial cluster, so as to make greater contributions to the development of new energy battery industry.

The 2023 World Energy Storage Conference is an important platform for promoting cooperation in the energy storage industry. At the meeting, Ningde held a centralized signing ceremony for 63 projects, with a total planned investment of 119.12 billion yuan . It covers the upstream supporting facilities such as key materials for positive and negative electrodes of energy storage batteries, supporting structural parts and intelligent equipment, and the production of midstream products such as energy storage batteries, PACK, industrial and commercial energy storage and household energy storage; New downstream application scenarios, such as electric aviation, electric ships, optical storage, charging and inspection, offshore wind power, offshore photovoltaic , energy storage technology services, focus on building the whole industry chain ecosystem.

In addition to the opening ceremony, the conference also held a series of activities, such as the main forum, the round table on the future development of energy storage equipment, the three thematic forums of "energy storage market, policy and environment from a global perspective", "technology-driven, innovative energy storage", and "new scenarios and applications of energy storage". At the same time, the conference also organized the China (Ningde) International New Energy Industry and Energy Storage Equipment Exposition. This conference focuses on the new trend of energy storage industry development under the background of implementing the "double carbon" strategy, explores the new path of energy storage market, policy environment, technological innovation and scenario application, and gathers wisdom from all sides to jointly promote the high-quality development of energy storage industry.
