Civil Aviation Administration of China: Power banks without 3C certification or recalled models banned on domestic flights
To ensure the safety of aviation operations, the Civil Aviation Administration of China has issued an urgent notice. Starting June 28, passengers are prohibited from carrying power banks that lack a 3C certification label, have unclear 3C labeling, or belong to recalled models or batches on domestic flights. (For details, please visit the official website of the State Administration for Market Regulation's Defective Product Recall Technical Center at www.samrdprc.org.cn/xfpzh/xfpgnzh)
Pudong Airport and Hongqiao Airport will enforce the requirements of this notice to ensure passenger safety. We kindly ask all passengers to comply with this notice by carefully checking the certification label, brand, and model of your power banks before traveling. Please do not bring non-compliant power banks on board. Remove your power bank before security checks to prevent travel delays.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

The energy center of the municipal supporting facilities project for Pudong Airport's Phase IV expansion recently reached a major milestone, with the concrete structures of all individual buildings completed.
The project will now enter the decoration and equipment installation stage and is scheduled to be ready for equipment commissioning by May of next year. After completion, the facility will provide heating and cooling for the future Terminal 3.
Covering a total floor area of 22,000 square meters, the center includes a high-voltage diesel generator room and a 35-kilovolt substation, an energy center complex and three energy storage tanks, each with a capacity of 24,000 cubic meters.
The generator room, substation and complex building were recently topped out.
Once operational, the center will use off‑peak nighttime electricity to store cooling and heating energy and release it during peak daytime hours. This will help balance the local power grid, enhance the airport's peak‑shaving capacity, and contribute to lower carbon emissions.
