Fuel cell vehicles, the ultimate solution for new energy vehicles, are gradually being transformed from ideals into reality. It is understood that the battery buses carrying the 'Keli's core' fuel will be delivered to the vehicle in late June and will be completed by the end of June. Shenzhen demonstration run on the road.
It is worth noting that the fuel cell bus was jointly built by Keliyuan, Ankai Bus and Remodeling Technology. Among them, Keliyuan provided auxiliary power battery systems. Insiders pointed out that due to this forward-looking strategic layout, Keliyuan In the competition for the ultimate solution of this new energy vehicle won the key industry card position.
It is reported that from 2015 onwards, Keliyuan has laid out its plans for the industrialization of fuel cells, and its National Advanced Engineering Research Center for Energy Storage Materials has conducted research on localization of key materials and components for fuel cells. The company has conducted special applications for fuel cells. Auxiliary power supply and system development, the results applied to this fuel cell bus bus demonstration project.
The Keliyuan 2017 financial report shows that in the past year, Keliyuan’s national research center has made significant progress in fuel cell membrane electrodes, fuel cell bus demonstration operations, and other projects, and all indicators and performance have reached the leading domestic level. Fuel cells rely on battery life. Long, with fast fuel supply and other advantages, is expected to break the bottleneck in the development of new energy auto industry and become a new hot spot.
Fuel cell, generally understood as a device that converts chemical energy of fuel into electrical energy, is divided into hydrogen, methanol, ethanol, methane, etc. Currently, hydrogen fuel cells are relatively mainstream at home and abroad. Hydrogen is used as a fuel instead of oil. , Also replace the current lithium battery, using fuel cells instead of the engine. Fuel cell vehicles have always been considered the ultimate solution for new energy vehicles, has become one of the 21st century market prospects for new energy vehicles.
It is understood that Toyota's strategic partner, Toyota, has developed the fully automated EV prototype 'e-Palette concept car' and the fuel cell car 'MIRAI' (the only car in the world to commercialize fuel cell vehicles).
In recent years, Toyota and Keli have collaborated on many occasions. In April this year, they jointly increased their investment in Kelimei to expand their production capacity to meet market demand. Kelimei is a joint venture established by Toyota, Keliyuan and other enterprises. Liyuan has a share of 40%. Its production of power batteries is mainly used to support FAW Toyota and GAC Toyota's domestic hybrid vehicles. This time, Kelimei expands production and meets Toyota’s battery consumption of 220,000 vehicles throughout the year. To promote the production and sales of polar products such as Cobalt Co., Ltd. and Changde Liyuan Foam Nickel Co., Ltd., and further increase the investment income of KeLiyuan.
In addition, in the field of public transportation, the two have also cooperated. FAW Toyota has provided a total of 3000 Corolla Twin Engines to Keliyuan for the marketing of Keli in public transportation. Currently, the public transportation platform has 15 stations. City, operating more than 3,000 hybrid cars on the ground.
Keliyuan executives had previously introduced that the company will focus on platform building and provide powertrain and new energy vehicles based powertrain package solutions. Through leading products, technical services include one-stop integration of supply chain services, terminal auto financing leases. Services, which bring considerable value output to vehicle manufacturers, local governments, terminal public transport industry practitioners, and related suppliers for the Chinese energy-saving and new energy automotive industry.
