As low altitude aircraft wait for safer and lighter power sources, deep-sea polar equipment craves stable power supply, and a new blueprint for battery development covering multiple scenarios has officially landed. Seven departments jointly issued a plan to focus on the research and development of aviation grade safety low altitude equipment batteries, promote the upgrading of the entire battery industry chain, expand the broad application space of energy storage and electrification, and provide reliable energy support for various high-end equipment.

Tackling cutting-edge battery technology

The plan proposes to strengthen the research and development of cutting-edge battery technologies, promote the integration and collaborative innovation of material structure manufacturing systems, and focus on the industrialization of all solid state batteries. Forward looking layout of new systems such as alkali metal ion multivalent ion metal air sulfur batteries, upgrading of electrode electrolyte auxiliary materials, research and development of high-speed intelligent complete production equipment to fill the gaps in industrial software, and continuous improvement of battery energy density, lightweight level, and intrinsic safety performance.

Expand diverse application scenarios

We will focus on building aviation grade safety lightweight low altitude equipment batteries, balancing high energy power density and continuous discharge capability, and synchronously supporting intelligent robot special environment batteries. Promote the electrification of automobiles, ships, agricultural machinery, and public transportation, expand the industrial microgrid energy storage scenarios of intelligent computing centers, explore new models of green power direct connection and virtual power plant computing collaboration, and tap into the electricity demand of cutting-edge equipment such as deep space, deep sea, and polar exploration. Keywords: New type of battery, low altitude economy, 15th Five Year Plan

Building an ecosystem for industrial development

The development goal set for 2030 is to achieve a cycle life of 15000 times for long-life lithium batteries, a defect rate of PPB level for leading enterprises' products, and preliminary large-scale application of all solid state batteries. Establish a sound system for recycling waste batteries, improve innovation platforms and standard systems, promote the joint construction of standards between batteries and low altitude equipment robots, agricultural machinery and other fields, enhance the level of international cooperation in the industry, and create a new type of green, intelligent and resilient battery industry system.Editor/Min Jing
