      • The National Institute of Clean-and-Low-Carbon Energy (NICE) is a leading clean and renewable energy research institute located in China and affiliated with the China Energy. Established in 2009 and headquartered in the Changping's Future Science Park near Beijing, NICE also has R&D centers in Germany and California. NICE aims to drive innovation and collaboration in clean energy research, contributing to a sustainable future. It is home to the State Key Laboratory of Water Resource Protection and Utilization in Coal Mining.
      With a team of about 500 researchers, the institute focuses on a range of areas, including carbon emission reduction, carbon neutrality, clean energy, coal chemical industry, hydrogen energy, energy storage technology, energy network, water treatment, environmental protection, global carbon cycle, smart energy, and energy-related applications of artificial intelligence. The advisory board features internationally recognized scientists such as Norman N. Li, Robin John Batterham, Robert Grubbs, Ke-Chang Xie, Uma Chowdhry, and Alexis T. Bell.

      NICE collaborates closely with partner universities and institutions, including Tsinghua University, Sichuan University, China University of Petroleum, Tianjin University, Zhejiang University, Tongji University, Dalian University of Technology, China University of Mining and Technology, Eindhoven University of Technology, University of Pittsburgh, GE, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and Jacobs Consultancy, among others. Since its inception, NICE has undertaken 68 national-level research projects in China, published 67 national industry standards, and received 61 awards from national, provincial, and industry associations.
