MIIT and six other ministries issued the 15th Five-Year Plan for New Battery
Industry Development, directing process optimization, material upgrades and
structural innovation to raise energy density, power density and cycle life. The
plan calls for development of high-safety lithium batteries for consumer
electronics; upgrades to new-energy-vehicle and electric-ship power batteries to
improve safety, fast-charging, low-temperature performance, light-weighting and
energy density; and development of high-safety, large-capacity,
networked/grid-integrated storage batteries with ultra-long cycle life.
