BEIJING, Nov. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

The city of Changzhou, in east China's Jiangsu Province, ranked the fifth in

the 2022 Hurun China New Energy Intensity City list, which was released during

the 2022 World Industrial and Energy Internet Expo held in the city from Nov.

11 to Nov. 13.

According to the Hurun Research Institute, factors of the intensity of leading

enterprises, small-and-medium enterprises (SMEs) and investment in terms of the

field of new energy were considered when rating all levels of cities in China

to compose the list.

Among the top ten of the list, Changzhou is the only second-tier city with a

GDP less than a trillion yuan (about 142.2 billion U.S. dollars), while others

ranked before it are all first-tier cities, including Shenzhen, Shanghai,

Beijing and Wuhan, which reflects that Changzhou has attached great importance

to the new energy industry, said Rupert Hoogewerf, or Hu Run in Chinese,

Chairman and Chief Researcher of Hurun Report.

Hu Run accredited the miracle to the "industrial ecology" of new energy

constructed by Changzhou, which others cannot easily copy.

In recent years, Changzhou has seized the opportunities brought by new

industries and the integration of digital and real economy, building an

ecological framework with Changzhou characteristics. New energy has become a

signature industry of Changzhou where more than 3,400 enterprises on the NEV

industrial chain are located.

Chen Jinhu, Secretary of the CPC Changzhou Municipal Committee, noted that the

city has made a development blueprint for the future of its new energy industry

with two major goals. One is to realize over a trillion yuan of industrial

output in the city's new energy sector by 2025, and the other is to achieve a

market value of over a billion yuan in the sector in capital market during the

same period.

The two-day expo witnessed agreements on 21 key projects with a total

investment of 47 billion yuan, mostly covering new energy, industrial and

energy internet, and digitalization. Two hundred products from 161 enterprises

in numerous fields including new energy vehicles (NEVs) and intelligent

manufacturing will stay virtually exhibited until Dec. 10 at the expo site.
