Core Viewpoint - The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) has introduced a new mandatory national standard for electric bicycles, which will be implemented on September 1, 2025, to enhance safety and regulation in the industry [1][2]. Group 1: New Standards and Implementation - The new mandatory national standard, "Safety Technical Specifications for Electric Bicycles" (GB 17761—2024), was officially released on December 31, 2024, and aims to standardize production, sales, and usage management of electric bicycles [1]. - The MIIT emphasizes that the implementation of the new standard is a systematic project requiring synchronized progress across multiple sectors, including production, certification, sales, registration, and management [2]. Group 2: Regulatory Measures - The new guidelines focus on two main areas: sales and registration. Strict measures will be taken against the illegal sale of non-compliant electric bicycles and components, including enhanced monitoring of online transactions [3]. - The registration process will involve rigorous checks of invoices, product certificates, and CCC certification to ensure compliance before issuing registration plates for electric bicycles [3]. Group 3: Battery Management and Safety - The MIIT is addressing the significant safety risks posed by old lithium batteries in electric bicycles, which are linked to fire hazards. The guidelines prioritize the replacement of non-compliant electric bicycles [3][4]. - A top-level design has been established to improve the recycling and utilization of old lithium batteries, including the release of guidelines for health assessments and recycling systems [4]. - Special actions have been initiated in several provinces to evaluate the health of electric bicycle batteries and promote recycling, with significant numbers of old electric bicycles reported in provinces like Shandong, Henan, Jiangsu, and Sichuan [4]. Group 4: Consumer Services - Consumers will have access to health assessment and recycling service points for their electric bicycle batteries, allowing for convenient testing and recycling of batteries that are no longer suitable for use [5].

Core Viewpoint - The implementation of the new national standard for electric bicycles in China on September 1 aims to address the safety concerns related to aging lithium batteries and promote a recycling system for old batteries [1][2]. Group 1: Current Situation - The total number of electric bicycles in China is approximately 380 million, equating to one electric bicycle for every four people [1]. - The increase in production and sales of lithium battery electric bicycles has led to a rise in the total number and proportion of these bicycles, with many batteries facing issues such as long usage time and poor maintenance conditions [1]. Group 2: Government Initiatives - The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) is actively promoting the establishment of a recycling system for old lithium batteries, which includes the release of guidelines for health assessments and recycling processes [1][2]. - A special action was initiated in March to accelerate the health assessment and recycling of lithium batteries across the country, aiming to reduce safety hazards associated with existing electric bicycles [2]. Group 3: Regional Insights - Provinces such as Shandong, Henan, Jiangsu, and Sichuan have over 30 million old electric bicycles, with 14 provinces having more than 10 million [2]. - The MIIT has included the health assessment and recycling of old lithium batteries as a key indicator in safety production evaluations for provinces, emphasizing the need for rigorous enforcement [2].
