CATL and CECEP Deepen Strategic Partnership for Zero-Carbon Energy Projects

Contemporary Amperex Technology Co Ltd (CATL) has strengthened its long-term collaboration with China Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Group (CECEP) through a newly expanded strategic cooperation agreement. The partnership focuses on accelerating innovation across next-generation photovoltaic technology, sodium-ion energy storage applications, comprehensive zero-carbon solutions, and international green mining development. The agreement reflects the shared objective of supporting cleaner energy infrastructure while expanding advanced renewable energy technologies across multiple sectors.

As part of the cooperation, both organizations will jointly advance the industrial-scale production of next-generation perovskite photovoltaic technology. This effort is intended to accelerate commercialization by combining technological expertise and industrial capabilities. The collaboration is designed to support the broader adoption of high-efficiency photovoltaic solutions while contributing to the continued development of renewable energy technologies for future energy systems.

To support large-scale renewable energy projects, CATL will supply CECEP with Tianheng lithium-ion energy storage systems, Tianheng sodium-ion energy storage systems, and EnerD liquid-cooled energy storage systems. These technologies will be deployed in major wind and solar energy storage installations, enabling improved energy management and supporting stable integration of renewable electricity into power networks.

The agreement also includes joint work on green development initiatives within the China Hainan Free Trade Port. Under this arrangement, CECEP will oversee comprehensive planning for cities and industrial parks, while CATL will contribute advanced photovoltaic technologies together with energy storage solutions. The combined approach aims to support low-carbon urban development and improve the deployment of sustainable energy infrastructure.

In addition, the two organizations will collaborate on environmentally focused mining developments across countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative. CATL will provide electric mining trucks along with supporting energy storage systems for these projects. The cooperation is expected to promote cleaner mining operations by integrating electrified equipment and advanced energy technologies into international resource development activities.
