The development of electric vehicles in China has been more than 10 years ago. During this period, it has experienced various disturbances such as subsidy fraud, spontaneous combustion, and false battery life standards. However, after 10 years of development, electric vehicles cannot yet become fuel vehicles. The reason why it is a mature and alternative transportation solution is that current electric vehicles still have problems such as low cruising range, being greatly affected by temperature, significantly shrinking high-speed cruising, and fast charging affecting battery life. Many car owners even call them "electric dads". In the cold winter, many electric car owners dare not turn on the air conditioner.
So after fuel vehicles, what is the future of automotive energy? Kaiba gave the answer.
In the recent two sessions of Hainan Province, Jing Zhu, a member of the Standing Committee of the Hainan Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of Haima Group, personally drove a hydrogen fuel vehicle to attend the two sessions, attracting the attention of many media present. This car, the Haima 7X with an "experimental" license plate, is powered by a hydrogen fuel cell and is the first hydrogen fuel cell MPV on the road in China. This move has great practical significance. It marks that in addition to commercial vehicles, hydrogen fuel vehicles have officially entered the civilian vehicle field, and the development of hydrogen fuel vehicles has entered the fast lane.
It is understood that this car is a 7-seater MPV equipped with three 70MPa hydrogen tanks with a capacity of 60L. It only takes 3-5 minutes to charge 7.25kg of hydrogen at a time. At the same time, due to the The energy efficiency of a hydrogen fuel vehicle is 2-3 times that of an internal combustion engine, so the vehicle’s hydrogen consumption per 100 kilometers is less than 1KG and its driving range exceeds 800km. In addition, the maximum power of the car is 120KW, and it can accelerate from 0 to 100 seconds in less than 10 seconds.
In addition to the power system, the exterior and interior of this car are also very fashionable and avant-garde. The official calls it "marine element design". The car adopts a 2+2+3 style 7-seater family MPV (there is also a 6-seater version). It uses an exaggerated hexagonal air intake grille, which is very eye-catching. The interior uses a large-size full LCD instrument and center console. The connected screen design of the control screen is full of technology.
As for the issue of hydrogenation, Haima Motors will establish a small hydrogenation station in Hainan for use by this hydrogen energy vehicle, and use Hainan as a pilot to take the lead in promoting the Haima 7X hydrogen fuel cell vehicle. Maybe it won’t be long before we can drive hydrogen-fueled cars across the country. Regarding the price issue that netizens are most concerned about, we will continue to follow up on the construction and operation of hydrogen stations.
For electric vehicles, hydrogen energy is a new development path. It has high thermal efficiency, higher safety than gasoline, no pollution during driving, and inexhaustible energy. It is An ideal alternative. At present, the main bottlenecks in the application of hydrogen energy are cost and large-scale storage and transportation. However, if we do not research and utilize it, the technology will always stagnate. Our nearest neighbor, Japan, owns 83% of the world’s hydrogen fuel cell technology patents. If we wait until all the problems in hydrogen energy application are solved before developing, we will undoubtedly fall behind others. Will we have to overtake again in a corner?
According to the goals of the "Blue Book on Infrastructure Development of China's Hydrogen Energy Industry", China will have 10,000 fuel cell vehicles and 100 hydrogenation stations in 2020. 2020 may be the beginning of hydrogen energy. In 2019, we will wait and see where the development of hydrogen energy will go.
