New energy vehicles in 2012 to 5% of total vehicle production
"Jiangsu New Energy Automobile Industry Development Plan Outline (2009-2012)" has been completed. This reporter learned that the provincial Development and Reform Commission will take the lead in boosting our province into the new energy automotive industry to speed the developments.
Current Status: smaller companies, the quality is not stable enough
Currently, the normal operation of the world more than 100 fuel cell vehicles, about 60,000 electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles more than 150 million, mostly concentrated in developed countries.
According to the latest survey, the province's existing business 31 new energy vehicles, of which nine research and development vehicle manufacturers are developing new energy vehicles, 11 models, manufactured by Nanjing Iveco trucks are electric special service district of Shanghai World Expo launch services. Industry experts said the company relatively small, lack of R & D capabilities, quality is not stable enough, restricting the development of new energy vehicles in our province the biggest bottleneck, in addition, high cost, high price and small market demand and other factors also affect the industry.
Target: 2012 sales revenue 20 billion industry
According to the latest development of the "planning", to 2012, the new energy automotive industry in our province and strive to break through 20 billion yuan sales income, vehicle production capacity of 60,000, the new energy vehicles accounted for the proportion of car production up 5%; all R & D of new energy vehicles up to 40, over 1,000 researchers, patents granted totaled 100; to 2015, formed a relatively complete new energy vehicle development, manufacturing, application, service system, the formation of 150,000 vehicle production capacity and has the domestic first-class technology and obviously a key component of competitive industrial system.
Features: Nanjing enterprises involved in key projects and technological platforms
This reporter learned that, in the new energy automotive industry's key products, key projects, key technologies and technology platforms planning, there are figures of enterprises in Nanjing. Among them, the focus of the project, Nanjing Automobile Group AP11 (strong mixing) plug-in hybrid cars, 2000 and 500 light commercial vehicles, light trucks dedicated R & D and industrialization, export-oriented Nanjing Jiayuan Gong Secretary electric car, car engine, Nanjing days Electronics electric power steering system and other projects top the popular list; technology platform plans include the Institute of Nanjing Auto, Nanjing Auto Machine Co., Ltd.
