Original title: Endurance of more than 300 kilometers! Henan hydrogen-fueled buses are about to serve the Beijing Winter Olympics
"Faster, higher, stronger" is an Olympic motto that has inspired previous Olympic athletes to challenge their limits and break through themselves. In Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province, which undertakes events related to the Beijing Winter Olympics, a greener, more energy-efficient and more economical transportation revolution is also deepening. Serving the Olympic Games and creating a green transportation mode in the city, hydrogen fuel buses are becoming the backbone of this change.
Deepen cooperation 85 Yutong hydrogen-fueled buses to help the Winter Olympics
As a global event, the 2022 Winter Olympics have attracted attention from all over the world. How to do a good job in the service guarantee of the Winter Olympic Games is a test of the wisdom of social governance for the host cities, and it is also the appearance of the level of urban development on the global stage. Among them, public transportation plays a very important role as an important window for the outside world to understand Zhangjiakou.
At present, the state is vigorously promoting the "double carbon" strategy, Zhangjiakou, as the country's only renewable energy demonstration base, is practicing the commercial application of renewable energy, converting surplus electricity into hydrogen energy, and then using hydrogen fuel vehicles to form a virtuous cycle. Such an energy utilization closed loop is gradually landing in Zhangjiakou's public transportation system.
As early as 2017, Zhangjiakou began to purchase hydrogen fuel buses, and as of now, hydrogen fuel buses account for more than 50% of the total number of vehicles. Since 2018, Zhangjiakou Bus Group has begun cooperation with Yutong Bus. Moreover, with the expansion of line operation demand and the good performance of Yutong hydrogen fuel bus operation, in 2019 and 2021, Zhangjiakou Bus Group has purchased 85 hydrogen fuel buses in batches, distributed in the city bus 1 and 10 line operations, providing convenience for alleviating public travel pressure during the Winter Olympics.
Economically reliable To build a hydrogen energy demonstration line for the Winter Olympics
"Due to the particularity of the geographical location, Zhangjiakou has more extremely cold weather in winter, so when purchasing bus vehicles, it will pay more attention to its low temperature performance, and hydrogen fuel vehicles will perform better than pure electric vehicles in low temperature performance." Huo Junqing, deputy general manager of Zhangjiakou Public Transport Group Co., Ltd., said that this is also the advantage of Yutong hydrogen fuel bus.
Not only that, it is understood that the batch of Yutong hydrogen fuel bus has been put into the actual operation of the Chongli Area, which is equipped with an 80.5kW fuel cell system, which can travel more than 300 kilometers with hydrogen charge, and has good heating and insulation performance in the car, and its operation effect in winter has also won the recognition of the team drivers and local passengers.
As an operator, the stable performance and high attendance of Yutong hydrogen fuel buses are the basis for Zhangjiakou Bus Group to provide reliable transportation capacity, and its hydrogen consumption level of 6-7 kilograms per 100 kilometers provides a demonstration effect for Zhangjiakou Bus Group to practice the Green Winter Olympics and create a more economical bus operation line. Up to now, the batch of Yutong hydrogen fuel buses has traveled a total of 6.73 million kilometers, creating a lot of social value for low-carbon travel in Zhangjiakou, located under the international magnesium lamp, its function is more than this.
Facing the world, we will show the achievements of green development
"Nice exterior, spacious interior, zero emissions, no pollution, no noise, good comfort."
This is the unanimous evaluation of Zhangjiakou bus drivers and passengers on yutong hydrogen fuel bus. With the Beijing Winter Olympics about to be held in Zhangjiakou, these hydrogen-fueled buses will also become a deepening impression of many foreign friends on Zhangjiakou and even China's green economy and technology.
Looking at the world, in the big wave of fossil energy to sustainable green energy, governments are competing to invest in order to lead global development in the new energy track and win opportunities for subsequent energy transformation. The batch operation of hydrogen-fueled buses in Zhangjiakou undoubtedly shows the world China's advanced achievements in the field of new energy utilization. At the same time, it also contributes to the global imagination of green transportation and contributes to China's solutions.
