National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC): resolutely combat “workshop-style battery recycling and dismantling”.
Battery Industry Network News National Development and Reform Commission yesterday held a special press conference to introduce the overall progress and effectiveness of large-scale equipment renewal and consumer goods trade-in policy.
In recent years, under the goal of “double carbon”, China's new energy industry continues to expand. From January to August this year, the production and sales of energy vehicles were completed 7,008,000 and 7,037,000 respectively, an increase of 29% and 30.9% year-on-year.
As the world's largest new energy vehicle market, China's power battery recycling market also has unlimited potential.
Industrial Research Department analysis: according to the new energy vehicle 5-year scrapping cycle, it is expected that by 2028 China's decommissioning of power battery packs will be about 3 million tons, 2030 will be about 4 million tons.
However, because the power battery recycling industry is still in the early stages of development, a series of problems are lurking at the same time in the wild development.
Development Research Center of the State Council released a survey report shows that as of 2023, the domestic new energy vehicle power battery standardized recycling rate of less than 25%, which also means that more than 70% of the decommissioned battery into the informal workshop.
The lithium battery recycling treatment is quite dangerous, may cause fire, pollution of the environment, this kind of “small workshop” safety risks are prominent, in the long run is not conducive to the healthy and orderly development of the battery recycling industry.
In order to standardize the development of the industry, as early as the end of 2018, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announced that it would publish information on new energy vehicle power battery recycling service outlets, and update the information quarterly. At the same time, it also successively released five batches of 156 “white list” enterprises for comprehensive utilization of used power batteries.
In the recent revision of the “new energy vehicle used power battery comprehensive utilization of industry norms (2024 this)”, also on the laddering and recycling enterprises and other aspects of the more detailed requirements to raise the threshold of the industry, more adapted to the rapid development of the industry's rhythm and needs.
