With the breakthrough of fuel cell technology, the bottleneck of new energy vehicles such as short battery life and difficult supply is expected to be a breakthrough. Fuel cell vehicles are also expected to become the new growth pole of the entire industry.
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, replace the engine with a fuel cell.
The Chinese government has been giving greater support to the research and development of fuel cells. As early as 2015, the officials clearly stated at the high-level meeting that they should support research and development of power batteries, fuel cell vehicles, etc. In recent years, research and development of fuel cell vehicles have also been conducted. Made a series of progress.
The first is a series of technological upgrades. 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 demonstrations and other projects, and all indicators and performance have been achieved. Domestic leading level.
Secondly, at the same time as technological breakthroughs, industry standards have also been continuously improved. Chen Hongjun, deputy director of the Standardization Management Committee, said that the next National Standardization Committee will closely focus on the development needs of hydrogen and fuel cell industries, and give full play to the guiding role of cattle nostrils. Continuously improve the standard system of hydrogen energy and fuel cells, and vigorously promote the application and implementation of standards.
Thirdly, the speed of advancement of the industry from technology research and development to market application is also increasing. According to reports, the “Keliyuan” fuel cell bus will be delivered to the vehicle in late June and will be put into operation in Shenzhen at the end of June. Li Yuan disclosed that the application was grounded in the domesticization of key materials and components for fuel cells that began in 2015, as well as the development of dedicated auxiliary power supplies and systems for fuel cells.
In this case, the fuel cell vehicle is expected to become a new growth pole for the future development of new energy vehicles.
Guojin Securities predicts that the fuel cell industry chain will develop well, the domestic electric reactor technology will break through, and the infrastructure will advance steadily. In 2017, there will be more than 1,000 fuel cell vehicles. It is expected that there will be more than 10,000 vehicles by 2020, and the whole industry chain will usher in. break out.
