Recently, Hope Deeblue A/C and Hefei General Machinery and Electrical Products Testing Institute Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Hefei Institute”) officially signed a “Industry-Academia-Research Cooperation Agreement.” The two parties will engage in in-depth collaboration across four key dimensions: testing and certification, joint technology research, standard formulation, and talent cultivation. Specifically, they will collaborate on product CRAA certification, energy efficiency certification, low-carbon and carbon footprint certification, characteristic certification, system and product testing and inspection, standardization, metrological calibration, laboratory evaluation, and related research projects.

Previously, through years of in-depth cooperation with Hefei Institute, Hope Deepblue has become a member unit of the China Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Industry Association and a member unit of the “Dual Carbon” Work Leading Group of the refrigeration and air conditioning industry, expanding the company's influence within the industry and effectively promoting industry development. As a national-level technical authority and authoritative testing institution in the industry, Hefei Institute's research and development capabilities, testing qualifications, and standard-setting capabilities will inject more momentum into the cooperation. The deep cooperation between the two parties aims to transform the laboratory's “testing standards” into a ‘catalyst’ for industrial upgrading. This not only benefits the development of both parties and strengthens their competitive advantages but also promotes industry transformation, reconfigures the innovation ecosystem, and drives the industry from “fragmented competition” to “collaborative innovation.”

It is hoped that the collaboration between Deepblue and Hefei Institute is not merely a routine technical service partnership, but a strategic initiative leveraging testing as a lever to gain technical influence, representing a high-value strategic alliance in China's refrigeration and air conditioning industry.
