At the 2026 World Energy Storage Conference in Ningde, Fujian on Oct. 15, Yang
Xudong, director of the Electronic Information Department at the Ministry of
Industry and Information Technology, said China’s new battery industry should
maintain steady growth during the 15th Five-Year Plan period but avoid blind
rapid capacity expansion that could produce unnecessary supply‑demand
imbalances; national top-level design will prioritize supply‑demand matching.
