Conference
10th International Summit on the Application of New Materials in New Energy
Date: 4 June 2026
Room: InterContinental Shanghai Hongqiao NECC, Grand Ballroom 3
Time: 09:00-12:30
This forum centers on the core theme of“New Materials Driving the Leap Forward in the New Energy Industry, New Quality Productivity Empowering a Green Future.”Aligned with the key directives in China's 15th Five-Year Plan regarding the cultivation of strategic emerging industries and the accelerated formation of new quality productivity, it will conduct in-depth discussions on the fundamental role of new materials in enhancing energy conversion efficiency, reducing industrial chain costs, and overcoming critical technological bottlenecks, thereby promoting the comprehensive upgrading of the new energy system and foster global collaborative development.
The key topics of the forum include: Frontier Breakthroughs—Innovation Hubs for Next-Generation Energy Materials; Integration and Empowerment—Key Materials Enabling New Energy System Construction While Reducing Costs and Improving Efficiency; Ecosystem Synergy—Global Supply Chain Development, Mutual Recognition of Standards, and Sustainable Development. Additionally, the forum will explore application scenarios for new materials in cutting-edge fields such as photovoltaics (including space PV), energy storage, and hydrogen energy, while advancing the digital and intelligent transformation of materials R&D to establish a data-driven, AI-empowered paradigm for materials innovation.
The forum will bring together resources from government, industry, academia, research institutions, and finance to provide strategic guidance and collaboration opportunities for breakthroughs and industrialization in new materials technology. It will help enhance the international competitiveness of China's new materials industry and lay a solid foundation for the global transition toward green and low-carbon development.
