CHINT Group is a leading global smart energy solutions provider and one of China’s foremost private enterprises in the electrical and new energy sectors. As a listed company, it possesses the advantage of a complete industrial chain in the new energy and smart electrical sectors. It has long been committed to green and low-carbon industrial development and continues to drive the global energy transition and industrial upgrading through technological innovation.
The delegation visited the University Gallery and the Aviation Services Research Centre to gain an understanding of the University’s academic development, research innovations and its strategic move to establish Mainland Translational Research Institutes. Prof. Jin-Guang Teng introduced PolyU research strengths in fields such as engineering, artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing and new energy. PolyU research teams also introduced the work of the PolyU-Wenzhou Technology and Innovation Research Institute and a variety of pioneering technological achievements. The two parties discussed potential collaboration paths, including technology matching, joint talent cultivation and co-construction of innovation platforms, focusing on fields including new materials, clean energy, precision manufacturing and rehabilitation technology.
Dr Lam Tai-fai
said that PolyU had a strong foundation for collaboration with Zhejiang, particularly through the establishment of the Technology and Innovation Research Institute in Wenzhou. He also noted that PolyU and CHINT Group had continued to strengthen their partnership, which includes co-hosting international technology innovation competitions. A number of research outcomes in energy storage and power-related fields are also expected to be implemented in Wenzhou soon. PolyU has distinct strengths in engineering, energy and power, and artificial intelligence, and will continue to align its cutting-edge research with Zhejiang’s industrial needs and deepen industry-academia-research collaboration to foster the upgrading and high-quality development of the manufacturing industry.
Prof. Jin-Guang Teng
said that PolyU has long been committed to integrating cutting-edge research into industry. He emphasised that, while it is important for research outcomes to be published in top international journals, it is equally crucial to bring them into the real economy to create market value. Given Zhejiang’s robust industrial base and dynamic innovation culture, PolyU is set to strengthen its collaboration with the province, focusing on areas such as new energy, dual carbon, smart manufacturing and rehabilitation technology. Together, they will address key technological challenges, cultivate high-level talent and establish a collaborative innovation model bringing together the industry, academia and research sectors.
Mr Nan Cunhui
noted that by leveraging PolyU’s advantages in research, talent and internationalisation, and combining these with the industrial foundation, application scenarios, market resources and project execution capabilities of CHINT Group, the two sides would deepen university-enterprise collaboration and advance the campus-to-corporate recruitment mechanism. They will also co-invest in and co-establish a “Future Energy Research Centre” and undertake applied research and development in new energy, new-type power systems, new-type energy storage and energy artificial intelligence, thereby advancing collaborative innovation across industry, academia and research fields.
PolyU and CHINT Group also signed a Memorandum of Understanding to deepen their cooperation. With the Nation’s 15th Five-Year Plan as the strategic core, the two parties will establish the Future Energy Research Centre to drive the research, development and commercialisation of new energy technologies. They will also establish an ancient oriental health and wellness platform to promote the integration of traditional wellness practices with modern medical technologies. In addition, they will conduct joint policy research to provide professional advice on Hong Kong’s green development and the industrialisation of technology. A dedicated coordination mechanism will be implemented to ensure the efficient implementation and industrialisation of research outcomes in Zhejiang.
The visit has further strengthened the bridge for innovation and technology collaboration between Zhejiang and Hong Kong, enhancing the alignment of resources between universities, local authorities and enterprises and the integration of innovation and industrial chains. This will support both regions in achieving breakthroughs in technological innovation and high-quality industrial development.
