photographed by Tian Yulong, spokesman and chief engineer of the Ministry of industry and information technology, journalist Zhou Qian < / P > on July 19, at the press conference on the development of industry and information technology in the first half of 2022 held by the Information Office of the State Council, a media question was raised: new energy vehicles handed over a bright report card in the first half of the year. Previously, the Ministry of industry and information technology said that it was studying whether to continue the preferential policy of vehicle purchase tax for new energy vehicles. May I ask whether this work is currently being carried out Any progress? What are the next steps to promote the consumption of new energy vehicles< Br > < div class= "contheight" > < / div > in this regard, Tianyulong, spokesman and chief engineer of the Ministry of industry and information technology, said that since this year, the development of the new energy vehicle industry has attracted the attention of all parties. Because it is closely related to the people, enterprises have overcome the impact of the epidemic, and China’s new energy vehicles have achieved steady and rapid development, which is also remarkable in the world. There are three main highlights:
< /div> first, the scale of production and marketing reached a new high. The latest situation is that in June, the production and sales of new energy vehicles were 590000 and 596000 respectively, an increase of 1.3 times year-on-year. In the first half of the year, the production and sales of new energy vehicles were 2.661 million and 2.6 million respectively, an increase of 1.2 times year-on-year. From the perspective of the overall production and sales scale, it was a record high, with a market penetration of 21.6%< Br > < div class= "contheight" > < /div> second, technological innovation has made some new breakthroughs. The newly developed lidar, domestic chips, and vehicle mounted basic computing platform have all been applied in vehicle loading, continuously improving the level of technological innovation. New breakthroughs have also been made in energy batteries. The energy density of mass-produced ternary batteries has reached the world’s highest 300 watt hours / kg, and cobalt free batteries have reached 240 watt hours / kg. These indicators are very bright. Semi solid state batteries are close to mass production, and our industrial competitiveness in new energy vehicle power batteries is very strong< Br > < div class= "contheight" > < /div> the third is to accelerate the improvement of the supporting system. In the first half of the year, 1.3 million new charging and replacement facilities were built, a year-on-year increase of 3.8 times, including 920000 private piles and 380000 public piles. There are many people who buy new energy vehicles, and the demand is strong, so the construction of public facilities is very important. At present, more than 10000 power battery recycling service points have been built, basically realizing the nearby recycling of retired batteries, which is convenient for users< Br > < div class= "contheight" > < / div > with regard to the exemption of purchase tax, Tian Yulong said that everyone is generally concerned, and the State Council attaches great importance to it. The executive meeting asked relevant departments to carefully study the extension of the exemption of new energy vehicle purchase tax in combination with reality< Strong> at present, the Ministry of industry and information technology and relevant departments are stepping up research and issuing relevant results as soon as possible < br > < div class= "contheight" > < / div > Tian Yulong said that on the whole, China’s new energy vehicles have entered the stage of large-scale and rapid development. Stabilizing and expanding the consumption of new energy vehicles is an important way to ensure the stable development of the automotive industry, which is also an important work measure behind us. In accordance with the decisions and arrangements of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, we will work with relevant departments to further expand the scale of the promotion of new energy vehicles, promote automobile consumption, and make a positive contribution to stabilizing the overall economic market. Mainly in several aspects:
< /div> on the one hand, we continue to improve the quality of product supply. Constantly improve the safety technical standards of new energy vehicles and the performance levels related to power batteries, including out of control alarm, safety protection, low temperature adaptability and other performance levels, so that consumers can buy and use them at ease. At the same time, we should speed up the integration and development of electrification and intelligent networking technology, develop more service functions that meet the needs of consumers, and continue to improve the sense of driving experience and modernity< Br > < div class= "contheight" > < /div> on the other hand, actively create a good use environment, strengthen industry monitoring, and do a good job in ensuring the supply and price of automotive chips and upstream raw materials, which has a relatively large impact on the automotive industry. Do a good job in ensuring supply and price stability, and spare no effort to ensure the stability and smoothness of the industrial chain supply chain. Implement the requirements of the State Council to steadily increase automobile and other bulk consumption, and encourage qualified places and regions to introduce high gold consumption promotion policies. Make concerted efforts to do a good job in the new round of new energy vehicles to the countryside, organize and implement the pilot of comprehensive electrification of public facilities in cities, speed up the construction of charging and changing facilities, promote the realization of information sharing, unified settlement and other convenient measures, so that the consumption, safe driving and the steady development of the whole industry of new energy vehicles can be coordinated.
