With a total investment of 859 million RMB and a five-year construction period, the project was supervised by the Ministry of Education of China and the Hubei Provincial People’s Government, and jointly established by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and the Wuhan Municipal People’s Government. The application was initiated in 2010, approved in 2015, and construction began in 2018.
