China has approved and published more than 600 national standards covering clean energy sectors, including hydropower, solar photovoltaics, concentrated solar power and hydrogen energy, according to data released at a World Standards Day event.

The country has also issued over 1,300 group standards and 345 foreign-language editions of national standards in the field. China leads the development of 174 international energy standards, accounting for about 15% of the total published. It also hosts the secretariats of 10 technical bodies within international standards organizations in areas such as solar energy and mechanical energy storage, and holds 34 working group convenor positions.

As the world's largest energy producer and consumer, China has developed globally leading industries in wind, solar and nuclear power, as well as ultra-high-voltage transmission. Official said standardization has played an important supporting role in their development.

At the event, the National Standardization Committee released a new batch of national standards for clean energy.
