China's market regulator has revised CCC certification rules for power banks, adding mandatory standard GB 47372-2026 Safety Technical Specification for Power Banks. Key safety tests now include thermal abuse and nail penetration.

The new rules refine quality assurance and product consistency requirements for manufacturers, introduce classified supervision, and strengthen post-certification oversight.

A transition period applies until March 31, 2027. During this time, certification may be based on either old or new rules as per enterprise preference. From April 1, 2027, only the new rules will apply. Existing CCC certificates for power banks and their internal lithium batteries must be converted before April 1, 2027.

Wu Kai, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and chief scientist of CATL, said at the 2026 Equipment Power Forum that the company will achieve mass production of a series of sodium-ion battery products this year. Compared with lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries have abundant raw material resources and lower costs. Looking ahead, lithium-air batteries will be CATL's future direction. Wu Kai explained that lithium-air batteries use lithium as the negative electrode and oxygen from the air as the positive electrode reactant, offering ultra-high theoretical energy density and representing the next global battleground for next-generation batteries.
