The pilot is to strengthen key technology research and development, accelerate battery swap infrastructure construction, promote battery swap mode vehicle application as the goal, the formation of new energy vehicle charging battery swap mode complementary benign development ecology. The country will also strengthen policy implementation, model exploration, innovation support, and accelerate the formation of experience in a wider range of use, the document says.Īt the end of April this year, the MIIT and the National Energy Administration announced that they would jointly organize a pilot project on the application of battery swap mode for new energy vehicles, with the aim of implementing the New Energy Vehicle Industry Development Plan (2021-2035). This will help save more than 700,000 tons of fuel per year and reduce carbon emissions by more than 2 million tons per year, the document says.Ĭhina will establish a coordinated working mechanism to strengthen the implementation of the battery swap model pilot, according to the document.Ĭhina will improve the safety management system, strengthen safety supervision, and effectively ensure the operational safety of battery swap stations and vehicles. The goal of the pilot is to boost sales of more than 100,000 additional battery swap-enabled vehicles and build more than 1,000 battery swap stations.

The first 11 cities to be included in the pilot include Beijing, Nanjing, Wuhan, Sanya, Chongqing, Changchun, Hefei, Jinan, Yibin, Tangshan and Baotou, the last three of which will focus on the heavy truck industry.
