The 18th Shenzhen International Battery Technology Exchange and Exhibition (CIBF2026), organized by the China Industrial Association of Power Sources, will be held from May 13 to 15, 2026, at the Shenzhen World Exhibition and Convention Center. With a grand exhibition area of 280,000 m², the event is expected to attract over 3,000 exhibitors and more than 350,000 visitors, continuing the legacy of one of the world’s most influential new energy exhibitions. Under the macro theme of “new productive forces” and the official theme “Connecting the Globe, Empowering Green Energy, Driving the Future,” CIBF2026 will bring together leading enterprises across the entire battery industry chain—from materials and equipment to cell manufacturing, pack technology, and recycling—to showcase breakthroughs in solid-state batteries, sodium batteries, large-scale energy storage systems, and advanced materials like high-nickel ternary and silicon-based anodes. The exhibition will feature a wide range of products including lithium-ion, solid-state, and fuel cells, power battery systems, charging infrastructure, energy storage applications, and hydrogen technologies. Concurrent high-level forums will address cutting-edge topics such as next-generation electric aviation batteries and energy storage engineering applications, while cross-sector integration will demonstrate battery technologies in embodied intelligence, AI data centers, and eVTOL aircraft. CIBF2026 cordially invites enterprises, experts, scholars, and industry professionals to join in exploring boundless opportunities and empowering the digital-intelligent future of the new energy sector.
