Do not be biased against diesel vehicles, Weichai is confident in hydrogen fuel technology

On March 7, 2019, Tan Xuguang, deputy of the National People's Congress and chairman of Weichai Group, accepted an exclusive interview with the reporter. As a representative of the National People's Congress and a leader in traditional manufacturing, Tan Xuguang made a corresponding answer in this interview on the environmental pollution of diesel vehicles, the core technology of enterprises and the direction of enterprise development.

Tan Xuguang pointed out that diesel vehicle transportation is the main mode of logistics transportation in China, accounting for about 80% of the national logistics, especially heavy commercial vehicles. This is an important way for China to achieve efficient logistics development. It is inseparable now and will not be inseparable in the future. The point-to-point logistics demand will never be inseparable from diesel vehicles. Never put all the contaminated hats on diesel vehicles. Do not "prejudice" diesel vehicles.

"How do you understand the development of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles?" During the two sessions, the reporter threw out this question to Tan Xuguang, the representative of the National People's Congress and the chairman of Weichai Power Co., Ltd. Tan Xuguang said: Hydrogen fuel cells are one of the main strengths for Weichai's transformation and upgrading. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles cannot be rushed to the top, and they cannot become "political achievements" of blue sky and white clouds.

As Tan Xuguang said, with the country's emphasis on environmental protection and energy development and reuse, the automotive market is facing unprecedented energy innovation. As one of the most comprehensive automobile and equipment manufacturers in China, how does Weichai view the technology of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles? What is the “ambition” in hydrogen fuel cells? This article will try to interpret.

Relying on the national major special project to develop hydrogen fuel, the problems need to be solved urgently

Weichai Power , one of the domestic comprehensive strength automotive and equipment manufacturers, has a leading position in the whole vehicle, automotive electronics and parts market. With the rise of the hydrogen fuel cell industry, Weichai's strategic adjustment began to force hydrogen fuel cell engines.

On August 29, 2018, the national "new energy vehicle" key project "fuel cell engine and commercial vehicle industrialization technology and application project" led by Weichai Power was officially launched. Weichai will establish a demonstration project for the industrialization of fuel cell commercial vehicles in the whole industry chain. Tan Xuguang once said publicly: "Weichai will rely on Jinan, the capital of Shandong Province, to promote the hydrogen fuel engine of 2000 city buses, based on the major project of national hydrogen fuel cell industrialization."

“Hydrogen fuel cell engine technology is a recognized and achievable technology in the world. It can achieve zero emissions and fully utilize secondary energy.” Tan Xuguang said in accepting the Chinese bus network that hydrogen is compared with lithium batteries. Fuel cells have advantages in terms of emissions and thermal efficiency.

There is already a clear message that the financial subsidies for pure electric vehicles will be cancelled in 2020, but the subsidies for fuel cells have not retreated, and they have maintained a large tilt. Under the background of national and local policies to promote the application of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, many listed companies from automobile manufacturing, traditional energy, electrical machinery and other industries have actively deployed hydrogenation stations and other infrastructure, and the industry has shown a thriving trend.

Tan Xuguang also made several suggestions on the development trend of the current hydrogen energy industry. First, hydrogen energy management is a big problem at present, and government functions should take the initiative. Tan Xuguang said that it is recommended that the National Energy Administration separate hydrogen energy from hazardous chemicals; develop safety standards for hydrogen refueling stations;

Second, not all regions can achieve the development of the hydrogen energy industry. Without resources, artificially refining resources is a waste. Tan Xuguang said that some provinces and cities in China, represented by Shandong, have important resources for the extraction of waste hydrogen. Shandong's waste hydrogen refining can meet the needs of 100,000 urban buses.

Third, the state should choose a demonstration zone to actively and effectively promote the progress of this science and technology. Tan Xuguang emphasized that policy guidance and financial subsidies should be given to terminal demonstrations. The deception of individual enterprises is not equal to the behavior of all enterprises.

Join hands with hydrogen fuel cell leaders to help upgrade the national new energy auto industry

The development of the fuel cell vehicle industry is inseparable from policy support, financial guidance and demonstration applications. The functional departments strictly control the flow of subsidies, and truly implement the subsidies to the key technological innovations of fuel cells, and truly implement the demonstration of encouraging the application of technology, in order to help the healthy development of the hydrogen fuel technology ecology. As early as before the national special project of "fuel cell engine and commercial vehicle industrialization technology and application project", Weichai has taken the lead in the field of hydrogen fuel power system.

In November 2016, Weichai Power invested 49.95 million yuan to make strategic investment in the domestic hydrogen fuel cell leader Foulsay, and cooperated with Fulsey in the development of hydrogen fuel cell buses, hydrogen fuel cell heavy trucks and other products. The existing business of Felsey will have synergy with Yaxing Bus and Weichai Automobile, giving full play to the advantages of Foer's “fuel cell technology advantage + Weichai terminal platform”.

In November 2017, Weichai Power signed a comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement with Bosch in Germany. Bosch will cooperate with Weichai in the research and development and supply of high-power, high-speed diesel engine fuel injection systems, and jointly develop and match according to the characteristics of commercial vehicles in the Chinese market. Bosch is the world's leading technology and service provider with more than 10 years of experience in fuel cell engineering development, sample development and component technology.

In May 2018, Weichai Power signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Sirius Power Holdings Co., Ltd. to cooperate fully in the field of solid oxide fuel cells and establish a joint venture company in China. The joint venture uses Silis' unique SteelCell technology to produce and sell fuel cell systems, stacks and cells for use in passenger cars, trucks and specific power generation markets.

In August 2018, Weichai Power announced that it has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Canada's Ballad Power Systems Co., Ltd., a global leader in hydrogen fuel cells, in Jinan, Shandong. Weichai Power intends to invest in a 19.9% ​​stake in Ballard and become the largest shareholder of Ballard. At the same time, the two companies plan to establish a joint venture company in Shandong to jointly develop next-generation proton exchange membrane fuel cell stacks suitable for the Chinese market, as well as next-generation fuel cell modules for passenger cars, commercial trucks and forklifts.

From fuel to pure electric, to more energy-saving and environmentally friendly hydrogen energy on the development stage, the country gradually liberalized and increased policy support for environmental energy. Throughout the relevant proposals and suggestions of the representatives of the automobile and transportation industry of the two sessions this year, the development and application of hydrogen energy infrastructure and hydrogen fuel cells have been mentioned many times. This also released a clear signal to the industry that hydrogen fuel cells will become the technological development trend of new energy vehicles in the future.

Tan Xuguang has publicly stated that by 2020, the traditional business of Weichai will surpass the world-class level. By 2030, Weichai's new energy business will lead the development of the global industry. For the moment, Weichai is making a positive example for the industry through its real work; in the future, we also expect this equipment manufacturing giant from Shandong to contribute more to the upgrading of China's new energy vehicle industry.
