On September 3, the 2026 World Power Battery Conference was held in Yibin, Sichuan. Vice Minister of Industry and Information Technology Xiong Jijun said at the conference that it will further strengthen technological innovation, support upstream and downstream forces to break through all-solid-state batteries, sodium-ion batteries, lithium metal batteries, etc., accelerate R&D and application of new material systems, new process structures, etc., and work together to improve the energy density, safety and durability of power batteries. It will further strengthen standard guidance, speed up the formulation of standards for power battery safety performance, cycle life, carbon footprint, recycling, etc., actively promote the integration of the standard system with the international community, strengthen, implement and implement inspections, etc., and lead the improvement of quality standards and competitiveness through standard upgrades.
