Up to now, Yongkang advanced battery and energy storage industry has taken shape. Peking University School of Materials Science and Engineering will jointly carry out scientific research and transformation cooperation of new batteries with Yongkang, promote the effective connection of talent chain, industry chain and innovation chain, join hands to create a benchmark model of school-local cooperation, and make new and greater contributions to regional economic and social development.
In Cai Ning's view, it is the efforts he has seen Yongkang make around the general goal of building China and even the world's advanced manufacturing base that has pushed economic development to burst forth with new vitality. He said that as a member of the world's largest clean energy production group, Ronghe Leasing has been cooperating with Yongkang for more than a year, jointly exploring innovative cooperation models, promoting the landing of industrial and energy projects around building a source network storage and use ecosystem, and actively promoting the pilot rural energy revolution. In the future, it will continue to deepen cooperation with Yongkang, promote the strong chain of new energy industry in Yongkang to complement and expand the chain, and provide a strong impetus for the transformation and upgrading of Yongkang's traditional industries.
