Seize Opportunities from Carbon Peak and Neutrality to Thrive in China’s New Energy Sector<\/b><\/p>\n
Mr. Cheung <\/b>Yi<\/b>p-sang,<\/b> the new Chief Executive Officer of the Group, said, “I am excited about joining Century Energy International to steer the Group’s business transformation after a two-year business restructuring. The business focus of the Group will be squarely set on the new energy sector, pivoting on the development of the clean energy industry chain. As a major energy-consuming country, the Chinese government has committed to achieving carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060. The fundamental key to achieving the ‘double-carbon’ target is to change the path of the energy industry by adopting new technologies to accelerate the switch to clean energy, so as to increase energy efficiency and minimise the impact to the environment. As an emerging energy corporation, the Group’s mission is to ‘Benefit People’s Livelihood with Clean Energy and Technological Innovation’. We will explore the use of new technologies to advance the energy industry by introducing and integrating quality projects in China and from abroad, combining capital, technology and businesses to create synergies. Our goal is to thrive in the fields of new energy materials, energy saving and environmental protection and digital technologies for energy safety.”
