Zhang Xiaokai: Low-energy New Energy Vehicles Are the Future of China's Autos


Recently, the State Council promulgated the Outline of the National Medium- and Long-Term Scientific and Technological Development Plan (2006-2020) (hereinafter referred to as “Development Outline”). In this “Development Outline”, the “low-energy and new energy vehicles” are clearly listed as the priority thematic development direction in key areas. Recently, Zhang Xiaoyu, the vice chairman of China National Machinery Industry Federation and the chairman of the China Association of Automotive Engineers, who participated in the research and drafting of equipment development in the Development Outline, said in an exclusive interview with our reporter. The Outline of Development sets out requirements for the development of China's auto industry and indicates the direction.

In reviewing the process of understanding the development of the automotive industry by the Chinese government, Zhang Xiaoxi said that the country’s understanding of the development status of the auto industry is a process of gradual deepening and gradual improvement. He explained that during the “Seventh Five-Year Plan” of the 1980s, the national government departments proposed for the first time that the automobile industry as a “pillar industry” should be included in the five-year plan. "At that time, it was proposed to adapt to the development of transportation. Therefore, the automobile industry should be developed as a pillar industry." Zhang Xiaozheng said, "After the 8th Five-Year Plan, the Central Committee proposed in the proposal on the development of the national economy that the automotive industry It occupies an important position in the development of the entire national economy, and not only meets the needs of the transportation industry.” Zhang Xiaoxuan also said that when the “Ninth Five-Year Plan” was reached, the country proposed to revitalize machinery and electronics, petrochemicals, and automobile manufacturing industries. The construction industry, at this time, raised the status of the automobile manufacturing industry to a higher level and requested that it be a pillar industry that will drive the entire national economic growth and structural upgrading as soon as possible; subsequently, the “Tenth Five-Year Plan” proposed that cars be encouraged to enter the family and be proposed. Fully develop key auto parts and agricultural machinery and improve independent innovation capabilities.

Zhang Xiaoxuan told reporters that during the preliminary investigation and study of the “Development Outline”, he began to study the automobile industry as the initial component of the manufacturing industry.

Due to a wide range of manufacturing industries, it does not reflect the important position of the automotive industry in the development of science and technology. Later, in the course of the research, experts and scholars in energy, transportation, and automobiles, etc., who participated in the previous research, invariably linked energy consumption and transportation resources with the development of the automobile industry.

Zhang Xiaolu said that experts in the field of energy research have pointed out that the development of the automotive industry has brought tremendous pressure on energy. The expert group's research conclusions show that if China's national economic growth quadruples, energy can only double, which creates a huge contradiction between energy supply and national economic growth. Zhang Xiaolu also said that from the point of view of specific industries, if the automobile industry develops at a rate of quadrupling, oil resources can only supply half, so the pursuit of petroleum resources and new energy sources is very urgent. According to Zhang Xiaoyu, the oil resources consumed by transportation equipment account for 70% of the total petroleum resources, while automobiles also occupy 70% of the oil resources consumed by transportation equipment. Overall, nearly 50% of the petroleum resources are occupied by automobiles. Therefore, the development of the automobile industry is very urgent to reduce energy consumption and new energy requirements.

In the subject research in the field of transportation, Zhang Xiaozhen told reporters that the development of modern transportation requires the rapid development of large aircrafts, high-speed railways, and expressways in order to truly realize the development of modern logistics, and that automobiles are important for solving the most efficient and modern logistics. tool. For example, Zhang Xiaojun explained that as of the Spring Festival travel season, the number of passengers during the Spring Festival has reached the highest level in the same period in history. From the perspective of daily passenger traffic, the number of aircraft is hundreds of thousands, and the number of trains is counted by millions. Passenger traffic is measured in tens of thousands of people, which fully shows that cars play an important role in modern logistics.

"In the modernization process in rural areas, we must also first build roads for rural areas to get rich." Zhang Xiaoxi said: "Now the country proposes to build a new socialist countryside and it is necessary to build rural infrastructure. The state plans to rebuild and build 1.2 million new buildings in the next five years. Kilometers of rural roads. This is not only the improvement of rural infrastructure, but also puts forward new requirements for the development of China's automobile industry."

Zhang Xiaokai said that in the manufacturing industry, the automotive industry occupies a pivotal position. For example, he said, now half of China's CNC machine tools are serving automotive companies; in the field of electronic computers, the latest software is providing equipment for the automotive industry, automotive design and manufacturing, and more inseparable from computers; automotive performance test test It is also inseparable from informationization. "In this sense, the position of the automotive industry in the entire manufacturing industry is also improving.
