This standard is the worlds first international standard in the field of solid-state batteries. Solid-state batteries are considered an important development direction for next-generation lithium-ion batteries. Compared with traditional liquid batteries, they offer longer range, higher safety, and more stable performance. This international standard, building upon my countrys accumulated experience in solid-state battery research and development, will clearly define the testing specifications for solid-state batteries. This international standard will provide a unified "benchmark" for global automakers in the research and production of solid-state batteries, helping to accelerate the adoption of safer, longer-range electric vehicles and promoting the rapid development of the new energy industry.August 21 – According to Irans Mehr News Agency, Major General Abdullahhi, Chief of the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, stated: "The achievements of the Ministry of Defense over the past few years have transcended military equipment production itself; they represent a deterrent revolution in the defense industry.
