The 2024 China Energy Storage CEO Summit in Guangzhou.
2025 China Energy Storage CEO Summit
I. Background
Against the backdrop of the accelerating global energy transition, the energy storage industry has become a core driver of the green economy. Leveraging rapid technological innovation, a complete industrial chain, and cost advantages from large-scale production, Chinese energy storage enterprises are gradually emerging as key participants in the global market. At the same time, the international community faces shared challenges, including evolving policy frameworks, localization requirements in supply chains, and the pressing need to strengthen cross-border cooperation.
As a vital hub city on China’s southeast coast, Xiamen combines the industrial resources of the Greater Bay Area with strong connectivity to Southeast Asian markets, serving as a strategic pivot that links China’s energy storage sector with the global market.
The Summit, themed “Breaking Through – Driving Global Innovation”, will focus on the globalization of the energy storage industry chain. It will bring together senior representatives from overseas energy asset owners, project developers, and international energy organizations to build a platform for in-depth dialogue, resource matchmaking, and the sharing of practical cases. The event aims to deepen international cooperation, explore opportunities in emerging energy storage markets, and jointly promote the sustainable development of the global energy storage industry.
