About ENN Energy Research Institute

The ENN Energy Research Institute is ENN’s innovation engine, which aims to address humanity’s
energy challenges in a sustainable, reliable and economic manner. Since its establishment in
2006, the institute has achieved technical innovations and scientific breakthroughs in coal-based
low-carbon energy technologies and Ubiquitous Energy Internet. Its current research interests
focus on compact fusion, deep geothermal energy, advanced energy materials and other
carbon-free technologies that would reshape the future of energy.
The Institute houses the State Key Laboratory for Coal-based Low Carbon Energy, the International
Scientific and Technological Collaboration Base and the Post-Doctoral and Academician
Research Center, etc. We utilize bench scale laboratories, pilot and demonstration plants to
achieve optimal scale up to industrial production. 500 scientists and engineers work together in
multidisciplinary teams to make possible solutions to critical energy problems of national and
global importance. We have participated in over thirty national government-funded R&D
programs and resulted in 1800 patents with 1300 awarded patents as of September 2019.
