Ministry of Industry and Information Technology: Promoting the expansion of the application of power batteries in relevant fields, supporting the innovation of battery swapping mode and the pilot of vehicle-to-grid interaction.

The 2025 World Power Battery Conference was held in Yibin City, Sichuan Province from November 12th to 13th. Xin Guobin, member of the Party Group of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and deputy minister, attended and delivered a speech. Xin Guobin stated that for the next stage of development of the power battery industry, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will improve support policies, strengthen coordination among various parties, and continue to promote the high-quality development of the power battery industry. First, it will strengthen strategic guidance, formulate the "14th Five-Year Plan" for the development of intelligent connected new energy vehicles and new battery industries, clarify development goals and key tasks. Second, expand application scenarios, promote the wider application of power batteries in relevant fields, support innovative battery exchange modes and vehicle-network interaction pilots, and promote the coordinated development of new energy vehicles and smart infrastructure. Third, improve the governance system, improve the interim measures for the comprehensive utilization of power batteries, study and establish a carbon management policy system for power batteries, and further regulate the industrial competition order. Fourth, broaden cooperation space, create a first-class market-oriented, legal, and international business environment, accelerate the integration of rules and standards, and create conditions for high-quality international exchanges and cooperation.

Wan Gang, Chairman of the China Association for Science and Technology, Wang Xiaohui, Secretary of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and Director of the Provincial People's Congress Standing Committee, and Xin Guobin, member of the Party Group of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and Deputy Minister, attended and delivered speeches. The conference was presided over by Shi Xiaolin, Deputy Secretary of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and Governor, and attended by Shu Wei, member of the Party Group of the State Administration for Market Regulation and Deputy Director, Chen Wei, member of the Standing Committee of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and Secretary-General, and Chen Shuping, Deputy Governor. Xin Guobin pointed out that vigorously developing new energy vehicles and power battery industry is a strategic measure for China to address the global challenge of climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In recent years, China's power battery industry has achieved rapid development, with significant improvements in technical indicators such as system energy density, cycle life, and charging rate, and the industrial chain covering basic materials, battery cell manufacturing, system integration, and recycling gradually perfected. The life cycle carbon emissions of power batteries have been greatly reduced, making a significant contribution to global decarbonization. Xin Guobin stated that electrification technology is permeating comprehensively from automobiles to engineering machinery, ships, aircraft, Siasun Robot & Automation, and other fields, and the development prospects of the power battery industry are broad. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will conscientiously implement the decisions and arrangements of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, improve support policies, strengthen coordination among various parties, and continue to promote the high-quality development of the power battery industry. The first is to strengthen strategic guidance, formulate the "14th Five-Year Plan" for the development of intelligent connected new energy vehicles and new battery industries, and clarify development goals and key tasks. The second is to expand application scenarios, promote the wider application of power batteries in relevant fields, support innovative battery exchange modes and vehicle-network interaction pilots, and promote the coordinated development of new energy vehicles and smart infrastructure. The third is to improve the governance system, improve the interim measures for the comprehensive utilization of power batteries, study and establish a carbon management policy system for power batteries, and further regulate the industrial competition order. The fourth is to broaden cooperation space, create a first-class market-oriented, legal, and international business environment, accelerate the integration of rules and standards, and create conditions for high-quality international exchanges and cooperation. The theme of this conference is "New Vision, New Ecology, New Opportunities".
