East China's Jiangsu province has given a strong impetus to the development of new energy industry by launching a number of major new energy projects since the beginning of the new year.
Changzhou has contributed half of the production and sales of new energy vehicles in the province. Its production and sales of power batteries account for one fifth of the national total. Its new energy industry ranks fifth in the country.
In recent years, Changzhou has always taken the new energy industry as a new advantage for forging development. Spearheaded by BYD, Ideal and other automobile manufacturing enterprises, Changzhou has boosted the development of power batteries, core components, photovoltaic solar energy, power equipment and other industries. Changzhou has continuously optimized the industrial innovation environment through major platform construction, core technology research and other measures.
Gu Jingzhe, Deputy Director of the Technical Center of BAIC Heavy Truck Co., Ltd.
We have formulated a development plan for new energy and intelligent truck products, formed a research and development team of more than 400 people, and China's first-class software and hardware systems. We are accelerating the layout of new energy commercial truck products, helping Changzhou to build a "new energy capital".
At the beginning of the new year, Changzhou signed 15 major new energy projects, and rewarded the newly introduced major new energy projects. It is expected that by 2025, Changzhou will register more than one trillion yuan of new energy output value, and the market value of the new energy Changzhou sector in the capital market will exceed one trillion yuan, which will help the city to make every effort to build a new energy capital that will lead the Yangtze River Delta, radiate the whole country and have global influence.
Yang Jun, Deputy Director of Changzhou Municipal Bureau of Industry and Information Technology
We will introduce more policies to support the promotion and application of high-end talent innovation resources for high-quality new energy projects, and continue to improve the application of new energy products in all fields.
Dafeng District of Yancheng City has sent ten investment promotion teams to the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta to attract investment projects for green low-carbon industries including wind power, photovoltaic, hydrogen energy, and new energy auto parts, and inject strong impetus to promote high-quality development in Jiangsu’s coastal areas.
Shenghong Group has invested 30.6 billion yuan to build a super factory for energy storage batteries and a new energy battery research institute in Zhangjiagang, which will inject stronger momentum into Zhangjiagang's efforts to build a 100-billion-yuan new energy industry innovation cluster.
Cao Yingfei, Secretary of the Party Committee of Zhangjiagang Development and Reform Commission
We will actively seize the development opportunities of the digital economy era, fully promote the construction of industrial innovation clusters, and build new energy industrial innovation clusters at a high level. It is expected that the operating income of the new energy industry in our city will reach 60 billion yuan in 2023, and will exceed 100 billion yuan in 2025.
