China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and six other ministries
released the 15th Five-Year Plan for new battery industry development, defining
19 priority tasks across five areas: accelerate full‑chain innovation, drive
industrial upgrading,完善產業體系建設, enhance industry science-and-technology service
capacity, and raise the quality and level of trade and investment cooperation.
Targets through 2030 include steady industry scale growth; strengthened
full‑chain innovation with breakthroughs in advanced materials and major
progress in next‑generation battery system R&D; leading firms achieving product
defect rates at parts‑per‑billion (PPB) levels; accelerated construction of a
full‑scenario application ecosystem and faster integration of battery technology
with clean energy and end‑use sectors; and deeper international trade and
investment integration to support global low‑carbon development.
