Fushun City, Liaoning Province recently invested 600 plug-in hybrid buses in the city for the bus operation of the city, setting a new record for the number of new energy buses on the first-line non-pilot cities.
Fushun City, which is known as the “coal capitalâ€, has always been the focus of government work. The development of new energy public transportation has become an important link. According to the "Liaoning Provincial Government's Implementation Opinions on Blue Sky Project", Fushun City launched the city's public transportation vehicle oil-to-gas work, and listed the bus vehicle update as a key project of "gasification Fushun" construction. According to estimates, 1 cubic meter of natural gas can replace 1.2 liters of diesel, and the cost can be saved by 20% to 30%. After the new energy bus is put into operation, it can reduce CO2 emissions by 6,400 tons per year.
It is understood that these new energy bus buses are plug-in gas-electric hybrid buses equipped with "Rui control" technology produced by Yutong Bus. The vehicle adopts new technology and advanced technology such as full-loading body, stepless speed change, non-closed threshold start, cathodic electrophoresis, etc., which can make the driving more stable, effectively reduce the driver's operating intensity, reduce driving safety accidents and prolong the service life of the vehicle.
It is worth mentioning that the Fushun government has made innovations in solving the financing problem of one of the new energy vehicles. Fushun, which has just exceeded 10 billion public finances and is not a pilot city for new energy vehicles, faces the investment scale of more than 600 million yuan, follows and exerts market rules and mechanisms, and innovates the “Fushun model†according to local conditions, breaking through the bottleneck of funds in one fell swoop.
According to Ding Shaojie, general manager of Fushun Bus Group, the “Fushun model†can be summarized as “energy companies and vehicle companiesâ€, that is, through the auction of natural gas franchise plus bus company land lease, get a new energy vehicle purchase down payment Jin, the remaining new energy vehicle purchase funds are resolved through the oil and gas price difference and the saved vehicle maintenance costs. According to calculations, new energy buses can significantly reduce fuel consumption, reduce costs by more than 30 million yuan per year compared with gasoline and diesel fuel, and reduce maintenance costs by more than 10 million yuan. The bus company can repay the purchase of the two companies' advanced advances, which can reduce the financial burden of the government.
The “Fushun Model†can not only drive non-pilot cities to start planning and preparation of corresponding supporting facilities at an early date, but also help the operating units to gradually establish operational support capabilities and lay the foundation for the subsequent promotion and application of new energy buses.
The Fushun government said that preparatory work related to the planning, design and installation of charging devices is under intense progress. The installation of all charging devices is expected to be completed by the end of August this year. The public transportation filling station project is expected to be completed by the end of October this year.
