Executive representatives of EVE, together with Dou Xiankang, President of Wuhan University, Li Ziyuan, Vice President of Wuhan University, Lu Changning, Secretary of CPC Committee of College of Chemistry and Molecular Science, Professor Zhuang Lin, Dean of College of Chemistry and Molecular Science and Professor Ai Xinping attended the ceremony.



Inheritance of the electrochemistry dream

 

To deeply memorize his mentor-- Academician Chuan-Sin Cha, who passed away on August 1, 2019, Dr. Liu Jincheng named the building as "Chuan-Sin Cha Hall", which gained unanimous recognition from Wuhan University alumni from all over the world.

As one of the important founders of modern electrochemistry in China, Academician Chuan-Sin Cha has devoted his life to the research and personnel training related to electrochemistry. He is an outstanding educator, being the first person to advocate the restoration of the college entrance exam and has made important contributions to the reform and development of China's higher education. At the same time, he is the respectful graduate tutor of Dr. Liu, has been guiding the technical work of EVE for many times at the very beginning of its establishment. The rapid growth of EVE is inseparable from the care, guidance and help of Academician Zha.

Dr. Liu shared at the opening ceremony that “it is a very glorious, interesting and meaningful thing to conduct research under the guide of Mr. Zha. EVE still maintain high-quality development in this challenging year 2020. In 2021, we will have a stronger ability to participate in the development of power batteries and energy storage related to the electrochemical field. EVE has already established a global advanced R&D team that the future business is promising. As long as there’s a need for the development of Wuhan University and the development of electrochemistry, I assure the president that I will do my best and spare no effort to do this job well. I am proud of myself as a student of Wu University, a student of Mr. Zha and a student of Mr. Yang. I am willing to do my best to return to my alma mater”.

"Chuan-Sin Cha Hall" condenses Dr. Liu's eternal memory of Mr. Zha, deep friendship with alma mater and his sincere feelings for the development of chemistry. The building carries Academician Zha’s persistent spirit in pursuing science, creative academic spirit, rigorous and serious academic attitude, which will continue to nurture and inspire generations of electrochemical students in the future to overcome core technical problems of electrochemistry and work together to develop China's electrochemical technology to a world-class level.

 

Dr. Liu always remembers Mr. Zha's instruction on his 85th birthday that "take the mission and make due contributions to the advancement of transportation energy for the mankind".


The completion of the "Chuan-Sin Cha Hall" will strengthen the cooperation between EVE and Wuhan University and further enhance EVE’s research and development capabilities and innovation capabilities, jointly promotes the application of new energy materials in the field of lithium batteries, fulfilling Academician Zha's instructions.


 

Set up the Chair Professor Fund


At the opening ceremony, on behalf of EVE, Dr. Liu signed an agreement with Wuhan University and Wuhan University Education Development Foundation to set up Chuan-Sin Cha Chair Professor Fund and EVE Chair Professor Fund, sponsored by EVE.
