Chinese battery giant Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd. (CATL) will continue to work hard with counterparts around the world to make outstanding contributions to the new energy industry, said founder and chairman Zeng Yuqun.

He made the comments on Wednesday during the first Members' Corridor of the Fourth Session of the 14th Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Zeng is also a member of the committee.

Zeng told reporters that the company has established a robust and resilient supply chain and ecosystem in recent years.

Looking ahead, he said CATL will increase investment in research and development, particularly by incorporating more artificial intelligence (AI) technologies.

The company will sell its products worldwide while promoting its technologies and standards globally, Zeng added.

CATL is the world's largest electric vehicle battery maker, holding approximately 36.8% of the global market share and leading the sector for seven consecutive years.
