能源绿色转型看中国！

China is the future of green energy transition.

2019年，是能源大国——中华人民共和国成立70周年，也是习近平总书记提出能源安全新战略的5周年。在这样一个特殊的年份，ABEC如约迎来了第7届！

2019 marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the great power abundant in energy and resources. It has also been five years since President Xi Jinping announced the new strategy for energy and resources security. In this felicitous year, ABEC has gathered again.

追忆2013，第1届ABEC召开，中国的新能源汽车产销量还不足2万辆，国产第一代纯电动汽车动力电池系统才刚开始量产。

Thinking back, when the first session of ABEC was held in 2013, the production and sales of new energy vehicles in China didn't exceed 20,000 units. The first version of domestically produced  motor battery system of electric vehicles had just entered into mass production.

行至2019，第7届ABEC召开，中国新能源汽车和动力电池产量已双双连续4年蝉联全球第一。截止到今年年中，全国新能源汽车保有量已超344万辆。

It's been a long way to 2019's 7th ABEC. Since 2015, China has established itself as the undisputed dual world champion in new energy vehicles and motor battery production. Six months into 2019, there were over 3.44 million vehicles in China.

7年来，经济发展诉求日渐强烈，能源安全保障日益紧迫。国际能源市场格局正在发生深刻变革，向“绿色”转型已成为能源革命的主要驱动力。新能源正开始由补充能源上升为替代能源，未来还将向主导能源行业发展。

 Over the past seven years, as calls for economic development have continually grown in intensity, energy security and safety have become matters of urgency. The green transition has become the driving force behind the energy revolution that is effecting sea change in the international energy market patterns. Green energy, proving to be more than an ad hoc solution, but rather a credible alternative source of energy, is well on its way to become the main driving source of industrial development.

7年来，中国新能源电池产业发展速度超出世界预期，锂电池发展成为新能源汽车的主要动力，燃料电池、固态电池、石墨烯等新一代电池技术初现端倪，ABEC也由锂电“达沃斯”发展成为电池“达沃斯”。

Over the past seven years, the growth of China’s green battery industry has exceeded all expectations. Lithium battery has emerged as the main component of electric vehicles. New battery technologies, such as fuel cell, solid cell and graphene, have taken off. Accordingly, ABEC, formerly dubbed the “Davos of Lithium”， is now the “Davos of Batteries”。

自2013年创办以来，ABEC目前已在中国的江西宜春、四川成都、湖北武汉、湖南长沙、广东汕头、山东青岛成功举办了6届，吸引了超3000多家机构或单位参会，数千位重量级嘉宾出席。

Since its founding in 2013, ABEC has had six successful editions in Yichun （Jiangxi）， Chengdu （Sichuan）， Wuhan （Hubei）， Changsha （Hunan）， Shantou （Guangdong） and Qiangdao （Shandong）。 More than 3,000 institutions or organizations, and thousands of influential guests have taken part in the forum.

ABEC继承并创新了世界知名经济论坛“达沃斯”的精华，凭借前瞻性、权威性、开放性、包容性和专业性，已发展成为一个世界性的顶尖技术与市场应用的交流峰会和资源平台，赢得了业界的广泛认可与支持。

Building on the World Economic Forum, the ABEC has developed into an open, inclusive, expert-driven world-class international forum and a platform to establish dialogues on cutting-edge technologies and market applications. This professional forum has won extensive recognition and support from the industry.

7年来，中国新能源电池产业的成长与成绩不可否认，但近忧和远虑同样不容忽视。

Over the past seven years, China has made undeniably great achievements in the green battery industry. However, both short term and long term concerns should not be ignored.

在今年，全球汽车产业下行、新能源汽车补贴大幅退坡，新能源电池产业在变革中迎来重大机遇和挑战：事故频发，新能源汽车全产业链安全如何保障？政策补贴退魅、资本炒作退潮，电池行业面临怎样的新挑战和新机遇？技术迭代，下一代电池技术与市场何时爆发？注册制开启，科创板开市，瞪羚企业与独角兽如何抉择投资市场？续航与残值之忧，充电与换电谁是终极选择？工业4.0之下，电池品质提升之路如何走？外资入局，自主新能源品牌何以制胜？“朋友圈”扩大，微利期来临，电池生态圈如何构建？……

This year, the automobile industry has generally followed a downward path. Moreover,  subsidies for the electric vehicles were substantially reduced. This revolution offers both opportunities and challenges to the green battery industry. In light of frequent accidents, how can we ensure the security of the whole industrial chain of new energy vehicles? After the cutback of government subsidies and the retreat of overheated investment, what new opportunities and challenges await us? As the technology advances, when will the next generation of battery technology and market emerge? With the newly established registration mechanism and the opening of the science and technology innovation board, how do gazelles and unicorns come to a decision about the investment market? There's also the issue of battery autonomy and residual value: Charge or change, which will come on top? How to improve battery quality in the “Industry 4.0” era? With the influx of foreign capital, how can local brands stand out? As our “circle of friends” is expanding, and as we are heading for a low-profit period, how can we create a battery industrial ecosphere ? ……

带着种种疑问，新一届ABEC让我们再次相聚，汲取智慧，相约前行。

These questions are reason enough to meet again in ABEC 2019, share our ideas and progress side by side.
