goedemorgen iedereen,
het ziet er naar uit dat de Chinezen vol inzetten op electrische voertuigen en de opslag van elektriciteit, dit zou wel eens een serieuze boost kunnen geven aan hun tijdelijk haperende economie en het zou de luchtkwaliteit in hun steden kunnen verbeteren als ze die stroom op de juiste manier opwekken...
BEIJING -- China will continue to roll out favorable policies to encourage the construction of new energy vehicle (NEV) charging facilities in 2016-2020. The government will reward major provinces and cities with prizes of between 90 million yuan ($13.6 million) and 120 million yuan that welcome more than 30,000 NEVs to their roads in 2016, said a guideline jointly released Tuesday by five administrative departments including the Ministry of Finance, and the National Development and Reform Commission. In 2020, the reward will increase to 126 million yuan should there be more than 70,000 NEVs on the roads. The cash prizes will support the construction, operation and upgrade of NEVs charging facilities and the operation and supervisory system for NEV battery charging and swapping service network. China's NEV sector has seen explosive growth in the past two years, thanks to subsidies and tax cuts. China's NEVs output increased about four-fold year on year to 379,000 in 2015, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. According to a guideline released by the State Council, China will build more than 12,000 new charging stations before 2020 to fulfill the demands of over 5 million NEVs.
Total production in November stood at 72,300 units, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said Monday in a statement.During the month, output of pure electric passenger vehicles soared 700 percent from a year earlier to 30,000 units and that for plug-in hybrid passenger vehicles tripled to 7,509. Pure electric and plug-in hybrid commercial vehicles skyrocketed by 18 times and 97 percent, the statement said. China rolled out a raft of measures to promote new energy vehicles in a bid to save energy and combat pollution, including tax exemptions, subsidies for car purchases and a requirement for government departments to buy more new energy cars. Official data showed that 95 percent of new energy vehicles produced in November would benefit from the favorable taxation policies.
