Liu Ke, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said in a recent interview with the media that he is "not optimistic about pure electric vehicles", which has aroused widespread concern.
As an expert in the field of energy, Academician Liu Ke's views are undoubtedly representative. In the face of the difficulties encountered in the development of new energy vehicles, how should we view the prospects of electric vehicles?
New energy vehicles were once considered to be the direction of progress in the automobile industry. In the context of reducing carbon emissions and achieving sustainable development, governments around the world have introduced policies to support the development of new energy vehicles.
Continental has also set a target of 20% of new vehicles by 2025. Although the proportion of new energy vehicle sales has increased, the growth rate has slowed down, and the promotion of electric vehicles is facing great pressure.
The market that relies solely on subsidies is not healthy, and there is still a long way to go for new energy vehicles to become popular.
In the face of the reality of the slowdown in the development of electric vehicles, we need to objectively analyze the reasons. The biggest pain points of electric vehicles are short range, insufficient charging facilities, and battery safety hazards.
These shortcomings will not be solved overnight. At present, the range of electric vehicles is mostly around 300 kilometers, while fuel vehicles can reach 500-800 kilometers, which directly affects consumers' purchase decisions.
In addition, the construction of electric vehicle charging facilities is seriously backward, and the construction of charging piles requires a large amount of capital investment, and it is difficult to achieve the same coverage density as gas stations in a short time. In addition, battery safety is also one of the important factors restricting the development of electric vehicles.
Therefore, it is still too early for electric vehicles to completely replace gasoline vehicles. We need to look at the development of new energy vehicles more rationally, and electric vehicles are not the only new energy vehicle choice.
For example, the concept of methanol vehicles proposed by Academician Liu Ke has the advantage of using the existing gas station infrastructure and solving the problem of mileage, which has certain advantages for promotion.
Of course, there are also constraints to methanol vehicles, such as the safety of methanol itself, and the energy consumption in the methanol production process.
Therefore, all kinds of new energy vehicles have their limitations, and they need to make continuous breakthroughs in technological innovation, rather than simply relying on administrative forces to promote.
In the context of the great development of new energy vehicles, we should also note that the energy of automobiles is not the only solution. In fact, over-reliance on cars can also lead to a range of problems, such as traffic congestion, air pollution and other urban diseases.
Developed countries are promoting the concept of "mobility as a service" to encourage the use of shared transport and public transport, which is also worth learning from.
The development of new energy vehicles has a long way to go, and technological innovation is needed to continuously break through the existing bottlenecks.
While promoting new energy vehicles, we should also actively explore diversified travel modes to achieve green, intelligent and shared future transportation. Electric vehicles are not the end, and better forms of new energy vehicles need to be explored and innovated.
