Zeng proposed that electrochemical energy storage should be incorporated into the national and local energy development plans as a new form of national infrastructure. This is because it will play a crucial role in helping reaching peak carbon targets and carbon neutrality.

Zeng said that the large-scale commercial application of electrochemical energy storage should rely on the improvement of energy storage policy and the market environment.

He suggested developing electrochemical energy storage in China from the aspect of strengthening top-level design. This would formulate and improve the energy storage standard system.
