Heavy truck new energy development trend of low carbon

When it comes to heavy-duty trucks, many people will spontaneously think of a powerful monster who has a lot of energy and car butt often throws a black smoke. In the entire automobile industry is popular in energy saving and environmental protection today, heavy truck field will not fall behind it? Recently, the reporter interviewed Fang Hongwei, chairman of the Shaanxi Automobile Group Co., Ltd. He said: "The heavy trucks must strictly implement energy conservation, environmental protection and emission regulations."

The old heavy truck company name is not bad

Shaanxi Automobile Group Co., Ltd. was established in 1968, and it is the only designated off-road vehicle production base and the first batch of auto export base enterprises retained after the country's selection and comparison test. At present, the group has owned 20 participating companies including Shaanxi Heavy-duty Truck Co., Ltd.

According to Fang Hongwei, the Group has established a full range of commercial vehicle R&D platforms and supporting systems through extensive external cooperation, and established a modern state-level enterprise technology center and postdoctoral research station, and its technical level has always maintained a leading position in the country. At the same time, the Group has re-innovated and developed innovative new products for upgrading China's heavy-duty vehicles with independent intellectual property rights, and has won awards in the annual evaluation of China's logistics and transportation vehicles.

In recent years, the Group has won various awards through continuous innovation in its systems and mechanisms and has grown into one of China's five largest brand truck companies. "In the future, we will follow the strategy of 'strengthening heavy trucks, expanding commercial vehicles, nurturing new growth points, and achieving sustainable development'. We will continue to develop heavy trucks while vigorously developing high-tech vehicles. , Exploiting and developing other commercial vehicles, and driving the development of special vehicles, auto parts and other automobile derivative industries, and strive to build an international large-scale commercial automobile enterprise group with an annual output of 200,000 vehicles and an industrial output value of 50 billion yuan.” Introduction said.

Pure electric heavy truck draws attention from the industry

As a breakthrough in the new round of economic growth, electric vehicles have become a common strategic choice for major countries and automobile manufacturers in the world. At present, electric vehicles have entered a new stage of accelerated development under the vigorous promotion of various governments. In the face of such opportunities, Shaanxi Automobile certainly will not miss it. At present, Shaanxi Automobile's purely electric traction vehicles have been successfully researched, researched and compared in various aspects. After 12 months of research and development, they have finally succeeded in research and development and have begun mass production and sales.

As we all know, heavy trucks have a very high demand for power. At present, electric vehicles cannot completely shake off power problems in the field of passenger cars. How do electric heavy trucks meet their own power needs? According to Fang Hongwei, currently the electric heavy truck developed and produced by Shaanxi Steam is mainly used as a tractor for the port. "The port tractor has several features, such as low speed and intermittent driving, which means that if traditional heavy trucks are used, the pollution will be very serious." Fang Hongwei said: "Because the speed is not high, electric heavy trucks can well meet the power demand, And there is no pollution. At the same time, in places like the port, charging the car will be relatively easy."

Low carbonization is a trend in the heavy truck industry

When talking about Shaanqi’s electric heavy trucks, Fang Hongwei said that there is relatively little tendency to discuss low carbonization in the heavy truck industry. Everyone is more concerned about how to develop new energy vehicles in the field of passenger cars, but he personally believes that the heavy truck industry is actually more Should be noticed, because this is a real high energy-consuming industry, low carbonization should be a trend in the heavy truck industry.

Fang Hongwei said: “In a commercial vehicle, heavy-duty trucks consume a lot of energy, and pollution is also the most serious, so the heavy-duty truck industry should be conscious of it. We can't do anything because there isn’t enough people to mention it or not.”

At present, in addition to pure electric heavy trucks, the use of compressed natural gas heavy trucks developed by Shaanxi Auto and the use of LNG heavy trucks have also been fully industrialized. “This year, we may have thousands of heavy-duty trucks that use natural gas in areas with natural gas resources.” Fang Hongwei said, “China has been applying natural gas to automobiles for some years, and has been developing from the early years of compressed natural gas to the present. LNG: Take heavy trucks as an example, the cost of vehicles using natural gas is about 45% less than that of diesel, and the combined carbon emissions are 80% less than diesel. In the future, we will explore methanol in natural gas vehicles.”
