The California population of 40 million, hybrid vehicle close to 500 million, more than 12% of the total, to become the world's new energy vehicles fastest one of the most mature.

But two years ago, Vice President, science and technology Minister WAN Gang first gives new energy vehicle development of clear targets: by 2012, the internally 10% new production car is energy-saving and new energy vehicles. Today, more than half the time, the number of new energy vehicles and no breakthrough. Is the new energy cars subsidies standards rules has yet to emerge, or there is a deeper reason why? how to reference global experience?

The end of may, at the Shanghai World Expo Shanghai Automobile Group-General Motors Museum held forums from Berkeley, urban and regional planning and urban design Professor stiff-necked ・ di gold (Elizabeth Deakin), and Arup Group global energy CEO John ・ Myers (John Miles) to accept a press interview.

The overall emission reduction targets

"21st century": how California's policy of subsidies?

Stiff-necked ・ di Gold: a car regardless of hybrid or traditional cars as long as you comply with the emission standards or energy consumption standards will give you the appropriate tax subsidies. Our California himself has developed a set of technical standards and inspection systems, through the official test, meet the standards of the automobile will enjoy the subsidy policies.

"21st century": specific subsidy policies?

Stiff-necked ・ di Gold: there are two ways, one is the vehicle registration fee, which is on the licence, the purchase of energy efficient cars consumers can enjoy the car registration fee waiver. The second is the use of subsidies, to achieve high standards of the vehicle, this car can enjoy dedicated lanes in California, when other cars are plugging in the road, you're driving the car can go dedicated Lane, let you travel more convenient.

Add that this lane other car can go, but need a few personal carpool, car at least three people to walk this road. If a person driving a car, not a high standard of vehicles would also like to take this lane, you need to pay.

John ・ Myers: I want to open in the United States, a hybrid car, one year registration fee is US $ 250, if you buy a normal car to 500 dollars. Equals is halved.

"21st century": in addition to the corresponding subsidies, California are there for new energy vehicles of other related measures?

Stiff-necked ・ di Gold: California all regions, with various levels of Government, the level of these government departments usually layers of promotion to the next level of government departments listed a plan to achieve by the year 2025 goal of 30% emission reduction.

These government departments if entire plan to do better, you can get from the State Government to financial support, if the plan itself design too well, or promote new energy vehicles will State Government does not give him money. This makes the Government departments in order to achieve such a goal will do a lot of appropriate investment and deployment. For example, in the local to the high-performance car parking subsidies, or if building more charging station, etc., to encourage more people to use efficient vehicles to help them reach 2025 achieve the emission reduction target of 30%.

Inefficient cars up efficient car

"21st century": China's new energy policy soon encouraged, the two find what encourages policies more suitable for China's new energy vehicles?

Stiff-necked ・ di Gold: on the one hand through campaigns to raise awareness of everyone. If you open a very large, very high fuel efficiency of cars people will laugh at you, with public opinion as a guide and encourage you to go in that direction, the world experience shows that this is still very effective. Secondly, the Government forced monitoring not only for manufacturers, for consumers also have a fine, if you buy a very inefficient cars to levy a fine, this fine collection of past later used to subsidize buy efficient car, put the money from side to side, you can greatly improve the overall efficiency.

From the end-consumer, I feel that the development of new energy vehicles may be derogated from in parking fees or reduction of vehicle registration fees, travel expenses, such as shooting fee remission.

John ・ Myers: China now has a duty, but the key to see how you use. London there are two ways that an implementation encouraged card, no matter by bus or metro, if a normal buy tickets

Zhang subway ticket 4 pounds if you encourage card, a ticket just 1.6 pounds, while encouraging the card received money, which in turn is used to develop subway and public transport.

There are also London went to pay congestion charges, all jam fee is used to improve public transport. So, not only in China, but also to the collection and use of revenue.

In addition you can let the car manufacturers and utilities can be better, closer cooperation. Because the development of hybrid or electric vehicles, electric companies, is also a good thing, because they can sell more energy. So I think that they can let their cooperation, more of the power station, which encourage consumers to purchase new energy vehicles.

In short, there are a variety of incentives, and the last for the Chinese should be China's own make judgments.

"21st century": in the new energy vehicles, California started earlier, as a pioneer, what are the lessons?

Stiff-necked ・ di Gold: California has many hybrid vehicles, some of these hybrid cars than conventional motor fuel more effectively, but some also does not necessarily more fuel-efficient. The Government encourages policy aims not only to improve of traditional automobile fuel consumption, but also to improve the hybrid vehicle in the effectiveness of energy consumption.

In addition, we must pay attention to this new technology overall lifecycle, in research and development before the first life cycle, such as Schwarzenegger was very encouraging people to build with hydrogen, hydrogen, natural gas must be used throughout the production process, gas leak, so that it is caused by waste than other energy consumption increased, or will be offset by savings. Focus on new technology throughout its lifecycle, you can further review of the adequacy of new technology, it makes sense though put a lot of research and development, but may not be able to help us improve the environment.
