Recently, some sources said that following the start of the unified standardization of electric vehicles in China and Germany, the work of standardization of electric vehicles in China and the United States will also start quickly. Once the harmonization and revision of relevant standards have progressed, the process of promoting the internationalization of China's electric vehicle standards will undoubtedly accelerate.
"At that time, the charging standards of American brands such as Tesla, gradually compatible with domestic charging standards, will be the general trend." A familiar industry person said to the tram. According to the source, as early as June this year, the "Sino-US Electric Vehicle Technical Standards Seminar" was held in Beijing. The seminar focused on topics such as electric vehicle charging standards, interface standards, battery testing methods and standards, and the Argonne seminar.
On June 9, 75 experts from the United States and China gathered in Beijing, China to meet to discuss electric vehicles. More specifically, the discussion focused on the standardization of electric vehicles.
Sure enough, this time, it was regarded as a milestone meeting of the standard of electric vehicles in China and the United States. It was held in an unusually low-key manner. There was no media coverage. In the end, only the relevant news of the conference was released on the official website of the Ministry of Science and Technology. More than 20 experts and scholars from the field of electric vehicle technology research in China and the United States can basically represent the highest number of speakers in the field of electric vehicle standards in the two countries or the core group that influences decision-making. Unfortunately, most media have missed this important news.
In fact, in order to further implement the spirit of the "Procedure on the Cooperation Agreement between the China-US Clean Energy Joint Research Center" signed by the Chinese and US governments in November 2009, the China-US Clean Energy Symposium was held. The discussion topics were further extended to areas related to electric vehicles and charging standards.
According to relevant people familiar with the event, during the seminar, several important topics included “standards, consistency and training programs between industry and government stakeholders to promote the growth of the electric vehicle market,” and so on. At the same time, the China-US electric vehicle seminar has also become a part of the US and China Standards and Consistency Cooperation Program (SCCP).
According to the source, the meeting was organized by the Ministry of Science and Technology and Technology (MOST), the China National Standardization Administration (SAC), and the US Trade Development Agency (USTDA). The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the China Automotive Technology and Research Center (CATARC) were held. Qualcomm, Contemporary New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (CATL), the American Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the Underwriters Laboratories (UL), sponsored as a sponsor.
Yes, this is a large transaction. Although it is affiliated with academic research, the whole process of sponsorship of Qualcomm and other companies is undoubtedly the hope to push the China-US new energy vehicle standard to its favorable level through the influence of relevant core decision makers. Or incorporate the standards it advocates into the purpose of the Sino-US New Energy Vehicle Standard. Therefore, an expert email reply from the US shows: "This is a big deal."
According to the source, in addition to the discussion of standards, the meeting also involved the safety of new energy vehicle batteries, the safety and interoperability of charging infrastructure, wireless charging, and fire and emergency response. According to the meeting, the goal of the cooperation project is to “work together, adopt and use common, globally recognized standards and consistent procedures, which will promote market access and export of US trading companies to China, as well as Chinese companies entering the United States. "In other words, we must work together to avoid future conflicts, increase industry costs, and ultimately pass on to consumers," said ANSI President and CEO, Joe Bhatia.
China’s core experts turned out to be them...
According to feedback from relevant people, the seminar has been held 14 times between China and the United States. After the meeting this year, the work on the standardization of new energy vehicles in China and the United States will soon begin. This further verified the comments of the relevant people on the “standardization work accelerated” of the tram.
After visiting some of the direct stores in Tesla recently, I found that in addition to some types of products, I still adhere to the inherent charging interface of Tesla. Some Tesla models have been consciously adapted for domestic charging facilities. Try it. The industry experts who promote relevant standards are the vice chairman of the China Electric Vehicle Centennial Association, Professor Ouyang Minggao of Tsinghua University, and Wu Feng, a professor at Beijing Institute of Technology who has just entered the list of academicians.
It is reported that as early as the 2010 seminar, Ouyang Minggao, Wu Feng and Larry Johnson, director of the Transportation Technology R&D Center of the Argonne National Laboratory in the United States, co-chaired the event. Experts from both China and the United States also made keynote speeches on testing methods and standards for electric vehicles. They introduced the current status of electric vehicles in the United States, the battery testing system of Argonne Laboratories, China's electric vehicle standards and battery standards.
“Ouyang Minggao is a senior expert in the field of new energy vehicles in China, and has the deepest understanding and grasp of the whole industry; while Professor Wu Feng is more focused on the application and safety of battery materials.” According to relevant persons, China and the United States The two sides have exchanged national testing standards for electric vehicles and batteries before August 2010, and have been deepening the content of the seminar. This year, along with the continuous fermentation of new energy vehicles in the domestic market, the discussion content has reached the consensus of experts from China and the United States.
