According to the Hainan Provincial Government website on August 22, the Hainan Provincial People's Government issued the "Hainan Province Carbon Peak Implementation Plan" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan").
It is proposed to vigorously promote the application of new energy vehicles and ships. Implement preferential vehicle purchase tax policies and related support policies for new energy vehicles, gradually promote the clean energy use of all types of vehicles in the province in stages and fields, and build a world new energy vehicle experience center.
By 2025, the proportion of new and replaced vehicles using clean energy in public services and social operations will reach 100%. By 2030, the sale of fuel vehicles will be completely banned across the island.
The "Plan" clarifies that by 2025, Hainan Province will initially establish a green, low-carbon circular development economic system and a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system, and the carbon emission intensity will be reasonably controlled. Lay a solid foundation for peak goals.
By 2025, the proportion of new and replaced vehicles using clean energy in public services and social operations will reach 100%. By 2030, the sale of fuel vehicles will be completely banned across the island. In addition to special purposes, vehicles in the province's public service and social operation fields have fully realized clean energy, and the proportion of new energy vehicles added and replaced in the private vehicle field has reached 100%.
The "Plan" clearly states that efforts will be made to solve the problem of inconvenient charging and optimize the experience of using new energy vehicles. With the goal of building a charging infrastructure service network covering Hainan and promoting the development and application of new energy vehicles, pile stations will be put first and the construction of charging infrastructure in Hainan will be advanced appropriately.
By 2025, the overall vehicle-pile ratio of charging infrastructure in the province will be ensured to be less than 2.5:1, public charging piles will be less than 7:1, and the average service radius of the charging network in key pilot areas will strive to be less than 1 km. , the priority development area is less than 3 kilometers, and the actively promoted area is less than 5 kilometers.
In addition, the "Plan" proposes that by 2030, the construction of a modern economic system will be accelerated, the green and low-carbon development model in key areas will be basically formed, the construction of clean energy islands will continue to deepen, and the green and low-carbon circular development policy system will continue to improve . The proportion of non-fossil energy consumption will be increased to about 54, and carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP will be reduced by more than 65% compared with 2005, successfully achieving the carbon peak target before 2030.
According to China News Weekly, retail data from the National Passenger Car Market Information Association (hereinafter referred to as the "Passenger Car Association") show that in the first half of 2022, domestic sales of new energy passenger vehicles reached 2.247 million units. A year-on-year increase of 122.4%; China's new energy vehicle sales have reached 59% of the global market, nearly twice the level of Europe. According to statistics from the Ministry of Public Security, as of the end of June 2022, the number of new energy vehicles in China has exceeded 10 million.
At the same time, China has built the world's largest charging and swapping network. According to Zhang Jianhua, director of the National Energy Administration, "As of June this year, China has built a total of 3.92 million electric vehicle charging infrastructure. By 2025, it will meet the charging needs of more than 20 million electric vehicles."
"At present, most international car companies are slower than Chinese car companies in electrification, their technology is lagging behind, and their industrial chain layout is poor." Cui Dongshu, secretary-general of the Passenger Car Association, said in an interview with China News Weekly: "China's new The goal of energy vehicles changing lanes and overtaking has been basically achieved. "
It is worth noting that Hainan Province also made it clear in the "Plan" that by 2025, Hainan Province will strive to increase the proportion of clean energy power generation installed capacity and electricity. Respectively reach about 85 and 75, scientifically and rationally control the scale of peak loads, use the construction of smart distribution networks and smart micro-grids as a breakthrough, explore the construction of source-grid load-storage systems and market mechanisms, and basically build a new power system demonstration province.
By 2025, 4 million kilowatts of newly installed photovoltaic power generation capacity will be added, approximately 2 million kilowatts of wind power installations will be put into production, and the proportion of non-fossil energy power generation installed capacity will reach 55%. By 2030, non-fossil energy resources will be fully developed and utilized, the proportion of installed power generation capacity will reach 75%, and the low-carbon energy ecosystem will begin to take shape.
By 2035, most countries around the world will ban the sale of fuel vehicles
According to China News Weekly, Chinese brands that originally had no obvious advantages in the automobile market have made early progress in electrification transformation. , more determined. As early as December 2015, 195 countries and regions, including China, signed the Paris Agreement. In 2020, China announced "dual carbon goals": to peak carbon emissions before 2030 and to achieve carbon neutrality before 2060.
It is worth noting that China’s time from peak emissions to net-zero emissions is shorter than that of the United States, France, Germany and other countries. Although the total carbon emissions of China's automobile industry account for a smaller proportion of China's total carbon emissions than those of developed countries, if China's automobile industry develops "step by step", it will be almost impossible to achieve the "dual carbon goals."
BYD and Long March Motors, a car brand owned by Great Wall Motors, have officially announced the suspension of production of fuel vehicles. BYD is the first car company in the world to officially announce the suspension of production of fuel vehicles. According to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's "Reply to Recommendation No. 7936 of the Second Session of the 13th National People's Congress", relevant departments have begun to study the withdrawal time of traditional fuel vehicles.
Not long ago, the European Parliament’s proposal to stop the sale of new fuel vehicles in the EU in 2035 was passed amid controversy. The full carbon neutrality roadmap released by the International Energy Agency shows that by 2030, annual sales of new energy vehicles will reach 55 million; by 2035, most countries around the world will ban the sale of fuel vehicles and fully enter the era of new energy vehicles.
In the view of Wang Chuanfu, chairman and president of BYD Co., Ltd., from an energy perspective, China's vigorous development of electric vehicles has another in-depth consideration.
Wang Chuanfu said that China will rely on imports of 72% of its oil in 2021, and 70% of the imported oil will be transported to China's shores through the South China Sea. Of all China's oil, 70% will be used for transportation. "Cars consume 70% of China's petroleum. From the three 70s, we can see that electric vehicles must be vigorously developed. In other words, China's development of electric vehicles is more urgent than any other country."
