Core Points - The article discusses the newly issued "Guidelines for Shared Battery Swapping of Electric Bicycles" by the National Fire Rescue Administration, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and State Administration for Market Regulation, aimed at standardizing the construction, operation, and regulation of shared battery swapping services to promote healthy industry development [1][2][3] Battery Usage Standards - The guidelines specify that newly replaced batteries in swapping cabinets must comply with national safety standards and prohibit the use of repurposed batteries, with a maximum output voltage of 60V [1] - Batteries must ensure safety under various mechanical impacts and conditions, including puncture, compression, and immersion, while real-time data on voltage, current, and temperature must be collected during charging [1] Battery Swapping Cabinet Construction - The guidelines emphasize the need for careful planning and site selection for battery swapping cabinets, encouraging integration into urban infrastructure and ensuring they do not obstruct pedestrian pathways [2] - When installed indoors, the cabinets must meet fire safety standards and maintain a safe distance from combustible materials [2] Management and Operational Requirements - Shared battery swapping operators are required to use products that meet technical specifications for safety and develop user-friendly software for operations such as registration, navigation, and payment [3] - An intelligent management platform should be established for monitoring and optimizing operations, and operators are encouraged to purchase commercial insurance to protect consumer rights [3] Battery Recycling Mechanism - Operators must establish departments for battery recycling in regions where products are used, ensuring proper management and safe storage of batteries, while minimizing environmental impact [3] - Regular assessments of battery health should be conducted to timely eliminate old or hazardous batteries [3]
