The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has officially released two important international standards developed by the CTTL Terminal Labs of China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT) - L.1011 "Guidelines for Durability Evaluation of Lithium-ion Batteries" and L.1018 "Technical Specifications for Durability Evaluation of Mobile Communication Terminals". This marks another key breakthrough in the field of international standardization of product sustainability and durability for our country.
With the increasing global emphasis on sustainability and the circular economy of electrical and electronic products, product durability has become a key indicator of their environmental impact and economic benefits. In order to actively comply with international green environmental protection requirements and help the green transformation and competitiveness of the ICT industry, the CTTL Terminal Labs of the CAICT took the lead in formulating durability evaluation standards for batteries and mobile communication terminals in the ITU-T SG5 group. The L.1011 standard released this time clarifies the test and evaluation process, key performance attenuation indicators and cycle life evaluation model of battery durability, aiming to promote the design and manufacturing of longer and more reliable batteries, reduce electronic waste from the source, and help green and low-carbon development. The L.1018 standard systematically constructs a technical framework and method for the durability evaluation of mobile communication terminals, and specifies in detail the technical requirements and evaluation methods including environmental adaptability, maintenance and repair of the whole machine and accessories, recycling and utilization, and system update management.
The successful release of the two standards not only reflects our country's profound technology accumulation and innovation capabilities in this field, but also elevates our country's practice and concept of green development in the ICT field to international consensus. These standards will provide clear guidance for global manufacturers to improve product quality and consumers make rational choices, and will have positive significance for promoting the green transformation of the global ICT industry and implementing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
The successful release of this international standard has further enhanced our country's influence in the formulation of international standards and promoted China's technical solutions and services to the world.
The CTTL Terminal Labs of the CAICT has been engaged in green development and low-carbon research in the industrial and communications industries for a long time, providing technical support and consulting services for government departments and industry enterprises at all levels in terms of carbon peak and carbon neutrality, green development, energy conservation and environmental protection, circular economy, digital and green collaborative transformation, etc., carrying out the formulation and revision of green and low-carbon standards at home and abroad, and providing training and consulting services on domestic and foreign policies, regulations and standards for industry enterprises in terms of green and low-carbon.
