China state planner and the National Energy Administration issued the "15th
Five-Year" new-type energy storage implementation plan, urging manufacturers to
strengthen key raw-material security and product quality, bolster full-chain
domestic R&D and manufacturing capacity, and improve performance-testing
capabilities. The plan directs study of a storage-battery recycling system,
encourages local governments to cultivate location-appropriate industry clusters
with stronger market assessment to guide demand, promote rational capacity
layout and structural optimization, and instructs implementation of
lithium-battery industry controls to guide energy-storage battery firms to
advance projects in an orderly way and prevent blind expansion risk.
