Ministry of Science and Technology: No new pilot cities for new energy vehicles will be added

The person in charge of the Ministry of Science and Technology said yesterday at the “2011 China Intelligent Transportation Annual Conference” that vigorously developing energy-saving and new energy vehicles and developing intelligent transportation systems will be the key support for China’s medium and long-term science and technology work. In the next 5 to 10 years, the close integration of technology research and development and promotion of demonstration work will be an important way to promote the development of energy-saving and new energy vehicles. In addition, pilot cities for demonstration and promotion of energy-saving and new energy vehicles will not increase for the time being.

Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Wang Weizhong said that the development and application of intelligent transportation will greatly promote the in-depth integration of information, communications, control, and new energy vehicle technologies and demonstration applications, and will effectively stimulate the development of related industries. During the "12th Five-Year Plan" period, the Ministry of Science and Technology will continue to strengthen its scientific and technological support for energy-saving and new energy vehicles and intelligent transportation systems.

Chen Jiachang, deputy director of the Department of High-Tech Development and Industrialization of the Ministry of Science and Technology, said that new energy vehicles are at the initial stage of market cultivation and it is expected that in the next 5 to 10 years, scientific and technological research and development will be closely integrated with the promotion of demonstration work. This is to promote the development of electric vehicles. The important way.

For the current 25 experimental cities for demonstration and promotion of energy-saving and new energy vehicles, Chen Jiachang suggested that the organizational structure for promoting the pilot should be established, and the implementation plan and annual work plan for the demonstration and promotion should be formulated to ensure the realization of the goals. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the study of policy measures, while increasing fiscal and taxation incentive policies, technological innovation policies, and actively studying the introduction of parking fee reductions, electricity price concessions, and restrictions on the purchase of such policies and measures. It is necessary to vigorously promote the construction of charging infrastructure and strengthen the implementation of national and industrial standards. In addition, it is necessary to establish a market order that is conducive to fair competition and encourage the use of tendering to promote the production enterprises to play their advantages and participate in the fair competition in an orderly manner. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen the monitoring of the demonstration operation and the evaluation of its effectiveness and strengthen the establishment of a pilot city information release system.

Chen Jiachang stated that the demonstration and promotion of energy-saving and new energy vehicles has now entered a stage of large-scale development. Regulating and strengthening management and improving the quality and level will be an important part of the future. The High-tech Division of the Ministry of Science and Technology will further increase support for scientific research, refine and improve relevant policies and measures, and promote and support the development of energy-saving and new energy automobile industrialization.

In addition, Wu Ping, Director of the Department of Transportation of the High-tech Development and Industrialization Department of the Ministry of Science and Technology, also stated that nearly 20 cities have officially proposed to participate in pilot projects in the public service sector and subsidies for private purchases of new energy vehicles, which have been approved twice before. In principle, the cities have not considered the approval of the third batch of model cities in principle. After obtaining certain experience in 25 cities, they will gradually adopt appropriate methods and expand the demonstration scope.
