November 1, the national electric bus electric control and safety engineering technology research center settled in Yutong, with a total investment of 330 million yuan, focusing on the electric bus electric control technology and safety technology for improving the economy, reliability and safety of electric bus , From a technical level to solve the new energy bus push without a wide range of problems.

It is understood that the newly established national electric bus electric control and safety engineering technology research center, located in the electric bus electric control and safety engineering research and development and transformation of scientific and technological achievements, to further reduce vehicle energy consumption and improve the energy efficiency of electric buses and Reliability, to meet the electric bus engineering and large-scale industrialization needs.

Li Gaopeng, executive deputy director of the national electric bus electric control and safety engineering technology research center, said: "The new energy bus has more advantages in the promotion of new energy vehicles, which is in line with the public transport mode of travel of most residents in China. At the same time, the higher purchase cost of new energy vehicles , More in line with the reality of public procurement conditions.Electric control and safety engineering research center of the national electric bus will focus on the characteristics of high voltage and high energy electric buses, electric passenger car accident types and causes of the summary analysis to improve the active and passive electric passenger safety rating, To prevent electric shock, fire and other accidents, and to achieve electric bus series of products engineering and industrialization.

At the same time, he also said that "the new energy bus has more advantages in the promotion of new energy vehicles, which is in line with most of the public transport modes of public transport in our country, meanwhile the higher purchase cost of new energy vehicles is more in line with the reality of public procurement, Technology Research Center was established, more conducive to improving the electric bus electric control and safety technology, promote mass promotion.

At present, the total number of urban buses in China is about 450,000 and that of buses in 38 central cities across the country is 21%. Compared with ordinary passenger cars, electric passenger cars take vehicle power as the main driving force and exhaust emission pollution is less, which can greatly reduce the consumption of oil and other non-renewable resources. At the same time, the electric bus, used as a bus vehicle, is in line with the national advocacy of public transport travel Idea and reality, energy saving, environmental protection features make its prospects are widely optimistic.

However, since the state launched the policy of energy-saving and new energy vehicles in 2009, the total number of energy-saving and new-energy vehicles promoted in the past five years is only 70,000, which is far from the original target of 500,000 vehicles to be held in 2015. Among them, , Less than 20,000 new energy bus sales. According to the latest statistics, as of September this year, the domestic sales of new energy buses was 8869 units, compared with the total sales of 379,000 buses, which means that there are only 2 new energy buses out of 100 buses.

National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Science and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the "Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei public transport and other public service areas of new energy vehicles to promote the work program" put forward: 2014-2015, in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area of ​​public transport services to promote 20222 new energy sources Automobiles, 94 new charging / substations, and 16,200 new charging posts. If the above message is the country to promote the application of new energy bus market policies and means; then next, "National Electric Bus Electronic Control and Safety Engineering Technology Research Center settled in Yutong", it is the country to "point and plane" to seize the future high ground of the automobile industry One of the strategic initiatives.

Zhengzhou Yutong Group Co., Ltd. President Tang Yuxiang that: In order to achieve "zero emissions", pure electric vehicles is currently the world recognized the best solution. In this market there is still a huge bottleneck in development, give priority to the development of electric buses, more suitable for the current industrial environment. Public transport is a relatively fixed segment of the route and use of the market, and can be charged at a relatively fixed site, which reduces the reliance on charging facilities. Moreover, from the perspective of energy consumption, although the number of vehicles involved in public transport is relatively small, the energy consumption is great. Therefore, the bus, especially the bus, is of great significance in the development of new energy vehicles.
