2024-12-23

Recently, the State Administration for Market Regulation decided to implement mandatory product certification (CCC certification) management for electric vehicle power supply equipment. Starting from March 1, 2025, certification applications will be accepted; from August 1, 2026, electric vehicle power supply equipment without CCC certification certificates and certification marks shall not be manufactured, sold, imported, or used in other business activities.

 

1. Which charging pile products require certification?
