ZTE's director of corporate strategy, George Sun, also said the company had signed agreements with more than 20 cities in China to provide wireless charging technology for public transportation, in a significant boost for the country's electric car industry.
Feedback from local governments is positive. ZTE solved the biggest headache of electric car charging for local government, Sun said.
Chinese drivers have yet to widely adopt the use of electric vehicles despite years of government programs to support their development, although public transportation fleets are a notable exception.
Shenzhen-based ZTE plans to conduct pre-commercial trials of wireless charging for public transportation in 50 to 100 Chinese cities in 2015, Sun said.
ZTE was in talks with several Chinese and foreign carmakers over possible collaboration on wireless charging technology for vehicles, he added, declining to elaborate.
China has rolled out aggressive targets for vehicle fuel efficiency in a big to cut down on pollution. It will have better standards than the US by 2020.
