China: Ministry of Industry and Information Technology opened consultation on Fourteenth Batch of Standards

On 26 November 2025, the Department of Science and Technology of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology opened a public consultation on 24 industry standards, until 24 December 2025. The consultation covers standards related to Internet of Things (IoT) applications and artificial intelligence testing. It includes technical requirements for IoT digital twin systems for hot-rolled and cold-rolled steel workshops, unmanned underground-loader driving systems, digital steel-delivery systems, intelligent equipment-fault perception systems, and equipment-level digital twin systems. It also covers requirements for wind-turbine vibration-monitoring sensors, distributed storage systems for video surveillance, data-security requirements for video-surveillance systems, passive smart-warehousing systems, IoT computing-fusion application systems, smart-building operations-management systems, and smart-fishery sensor protocols. The consultation further addresses end-side artificial intelligence pilot-testing standards, including algorithm-robustness evaluation, digital pilot systems, pilot-equipment management, pilot-platform evaluation, pilot-project management, and pilot-verification requirements.
