3.Lithium-ion Batteries in Energy Storage Systems Shall Meet Requirements of GB/T 36276,
Lithium Ion Batteries,
BSMI is short for Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection, established in 1930 and called National Metrology Bureau at that time. It is the supreme inspection organization in Republic of China in charge of the work on national standards, metrology and product inspection etc. The inspection standards of electrical appliances in Taiwan are enacted by BSMI. Products are authorized to use BSMI marking on the conditions that they are in compliance with safety requirements, EMC testing and other related tests.
Electrical appliances and electronic products are tested according to the following three schemes: type-approved (T), registration of product certification(R) and declaration of conformity (D).
On 20 November 2013, it is announced by BSMI that from 1st, May 2014, 3C secondary lithium cell/battery, secondary lithium power bank and 3C battery charger are not permitted to access to Taiwan market until they are inspected and qualified according to the relevant standards (as shown in table below).

On June 21, 2022, the website of Chinese Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development released the Design Code for Electrochemical Energy Storage Station (Draft for Comments). This code was drafted by China Southern Power Grid Peak and Frequency Regulation Power Generation Co.,Ltd. as well as other companies, which are organized by Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. The standard is intended to apply to the design of new, expanded or modified stationary electrochemical energy storage station with a power of 500kW and a capacity of 500kW·h and above. It is a compulsory national standard. The deadline for comments is July 17, 2022.The standard recommends to use of lead-acid (lead-carbon) batteries, lithium-ion batteries and flow batteries. For lithium batteries, the requirements are as follows (in view restrictions of this version, only the main requirements are listed):1. The technical requirements of lithium-ion batteries shall comply with the current national standard Lithium-ion Batteries Used in Power Storage GB/T 36276 and the current industrial standard Technical Specifications for Lithium-ion Batteries Used in Electrochemical Energy Storage Station NB/T 42091-2016.
