The First in China’s Lithium‑ion Battery Industry｜Dr. Drew Feng of Ampace is honored with the UL Standards Outstanding Contribution Award
Dr. Drew Feng, Chief Safety Officer of Ampace, has been honored with the UL Standards Outstanding Contribution Award and the TC Members Five‑Year Honorary Medal in recognition of his long‑term dedication and remarkable contributions within the UL Standards Technical Committee. He is the first expert from China’s lithium‑ion battery industry to receive this prestigious honor.
As an authoritative safety science institution with over a century of history, UL has long been committed to standards development and product safety certification. Widely adopted and recognized across North America and global markets, its standard system serves as a “safety passport” for numerous electronics and new‑energy products entering the international marketplace. The UL Standards Outstanding Contribution Award recognizes industry leaders with outstanding performance within UL Standards Technical Committees, who continuously advance standards through professional expertise.
As a voting TC/STP member, Dr. Drew Feng has been deeply involved in the development of 19 important UL standards on the applications of ESS, micro e-mobility and high power products (such as power tools, cleaning devices and drones), laying a solid foundation for battery safety across global market segments.
In the energy‑storage sector, Dr. Drew Feng has led and participated in standards including UL 9540/UL 9540A, UL 3001, UL 1778/IEC 62040‑1/IEC 62477‑1, UL 2743, forming a complete safety standard system ranging from utility-scale energy storage systems to residential energy‑storage units.
In the micro e-mobility segment, he has been deeply involved in UL 2849, UL 2272, UL 2580, UL 558/UL 583, delivering reliable safety guarantees for green mobility and smart logistics.
For high‑power and smart‑device applications, he has extensively contributed to UL 2595, UL 3030, UL 1740 and UL 1017. His efforts ensure that batteries in a wide range of smart terminals withstand stringent testing and protect end‑user safety.
This award not only validates Dr. Drew Feng’s global leadership in lithium‑ion battery safety standards, but also demonstrates Ampace’s profound technological expertise and valued contributions to standard developmet in the new‑energy sector. It further highlights the growing influence of China’s lithium‑ion battery industry on the international standards arena.
As an innovation pioneer specializing in lithium‑ion batteries, Ampace consistently prioritizes product safety. Moving forward, Ampace will further strengthen its engagement in international standards and build greater industry influence.
Driven by elevated standards and technological innovation, Ampace will accelerate the global energy transition toward safer, more efficient and sustainable development.
