MIIT and CHINA STATE PLANNER jointly issued the "15th Five-Year Plan for Electronic Information Manufacturing Development", directing consolidation of the energy‑electronics sector and coordinated advancement across PV, storage, terminals and communications. The plan calls for iterative upgrades to high‑efficiency crystalline silicon PV cells, development of perovskite tandem cells and supporting equipment/materials, and deployment of high‑reliability, intelligent PV modules and smart O&M to expand PV+ applications. It mandates strengthening full‑chain innovation for new batteries, maintaining lithium‑ion competitiveness while continuing to commercialize solid‑state, sodium‑ion, flow and fuel‑cell technologies, and promoting smart, green, integrated battery systems. The plan supports new battery applications in smart devices, NEVs, shipping, aviation, robotics, construction and agricultural machinery, and calls for accelerated R&D and supply of power‑electronics core technologies and components plus improved efficient integration and precise control of energy storage systems.
