The Central Economic Work Conference to be held at the end of 2020 listed “Doing a Good Job in Carbon Peaking and Carbon Neutrality” as one of the key tasks in 2021. In the government work report submitted for deliberation on March 5, it was also proposed that this year, we must do a good job in carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, and formulate an action plan for carbon emissions peaking by 2030. As a result, "carbon peak" and "carbon neutral" have also become keywords, appearing frequently in the two sessions.

   Create a healthy development environment for the hydrogen energy industry and accelerate the marketization of fuel cell vehicles

    Low-carbonization and electrification are major trends in the global green and sustainable development of energy and transportation. In my country’s “three vertical” strategy for the comprehensive development of fuel cell vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and pure electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles have zero emissions, high efficiency, stable operation, low temperature resistance, and stable endurance compared to the other two technical routes. Many advantages.

    However, “the strategic direction of my country’s hydrogen energy industry is still unclear, the supporting policies are not yet complete, the management of hydrogen refueling stations is inadequate, and the hydrogen energy supply system for vehicles is not yet complete,” said Wang Fengying, a representative of the National People’s Congress and president of Great Wall Motors. The autonomy of parts and components is still insufficient, and the high price of vehicle manufacturing and hydrogen has hindered the process of industrialization.

    Representative Wang Fengying suggested to formulate a national top-level design of hydrogen energy, improve standards and regulations; guide to increase investment in hydrogen fuel cell basic scientific research, break through the technical bottleneck of core materials and key components; accelerate the industrialization of fuel cell vehicles, and encourage multiple means to reduce promotion Cost; strengthen the synergy of high-quality resources and optimize the industrial development environment.

    Calling for the transformation of truck electrification, suggesting to solve the corresponding legal obstacles

   "In order to achieve peak carbon emissions and control emissions of pollutants in the automotive industry, the electrification of trucks is imperative." Li Shufu, a representative of the National People's Congress and chairman of Geely Holding Group, focused his attention on the transformation of truck electrification.

    According to calculations by the China Automotive Technology Research Center, my country's transportation industry carbon emissions in 2019 will be about 1.2 billion tons, of which the number of commercial vehicles only accounts for about 12% of the number of vehicles in my country, but it produces 56% of the carbon emissions of road transportation.

    “The power-swap mode provides a viable energy replenishment method for the electrification of trucks. The state has issued a series of policies to promote the electrification of trucks and the demonstration operation of the power-swap mode,” said Li Shufu, “but at present, the electrification of trucks still faces the maximum total mass of vehicles. , Vehicle length and other legal obstacles."

    In this regard, Li Shufu suggested that for electric trucks equipped with 1kW.h of electricity, the maximum total mass limit of the vehicle should be increased by 10kg on the original basis to offset the increase in the curb weight of the vehicle due to the equipped power battery; The length limit of the entire train (articulated train) is supplemented to 18.5m to meet the rapid promotion and application of the power exchange mode on new energy trucks.
