For a century, there is no change in the game, and the trillion new industries will start from here

Zhigu Trends (ID: zgtrend) | Wang Zhanxin

Above the sky, there is a weird trend.

The global climate is abnormal and the extreme weather is frequent. I believe you and me have experienced it in the past few years.

But we still did not expect that in the 21st century with such a powerful technical force, humans would actually have e -message.

Last year, Texas, the United States, encountered superstiners, paralyzed power generation systems, lost more than 18%of the source of electricity, and led to more than 400,000 households to disconnect water and water.

This year, due to the Russian natural gas card neck and the drought that has not encountered for thousands of years, European electricity prices have skyrocketed 10 times, and the local people are miserable.

This situation is not resolved, and people will lose "travel freedom."

In order to achieve the "dual carbon" goal, almost all countries in the world put their hope to new energy.

There are tens of millions of electric vehicles promoted by China, and the number is still increasing. In case the power system is like Texas, the car's car may only be pulled by people.

Failure vehicles are not good, and electric vehicles are not forever and for all. Is there any other solution?

Walk to the water poverty, sit while watching the clouds.

Everyone knows that China is a large country of coal production, and it is also known that coal is not clean energy. It is just that you may not know that methanol can be fuel.

This methanol is hiding the power of floods.

01

When it comes to new energy vehicles, everyone will immediately think of pure trams or hybrid vehicles, and often ignores hydrogen vehicles and methanol cars.

Compared with electric vehicles, methanol cars actually have a unique advantage.

As the name suggests, methanol is burned. The production process of methanol is gradually mature, and it can be made from coal, crops and even urban waste. Essence

China is a large coal country. In 2020, coal production and consumption volume was about 3.9 billion tons and 4.04 billion tons, respectively, with a self -sufficient rate of more than 96%.

Methanol cars are not worried about the oil crisis or the fluctuation of lithium prices.

Chinese electric vehicle maps show obvious regional differences: there are so many electric vehicles in the south, but there are few electric vehicles in the west and northeast. Jilin, with a population of 23.754 million, only has more than 10,000 electric vehicles, and the per capita ownership is less than one -tenth of the country.

When pure electric passenger cars are used in cold regions in the north, the performance of battery electrolytes and electrode materials at low temperature conditions has caused a significantly shortened winter range of pure electric vehicles in winter, which exacerbates user mileage anxiety.

The methanol of methanol car uses liquid methanol as energy. It is not affected in the winter cold region, which can fully meet consumers' requirements for consumers in northern my country for battery life and in -car heating.

There is still a problem with electric vehicles, and charging is a bit troublesome. If you use a plug -in charging technology, the waiting time is long; if you use power replacement technology, you must unify the battery style of major brands.

Monol car is much more convenient. Like gasoline, methanol is a liquid with high volume energy density, which can fill a box of methanol in a few minutes.

The cost of reconstruction of methanol injection stations is very low. We can directly change the gas station to add alcohol station without opening a new site, so that new costs are available.

For the vast regional, large population, changing climate, and complex terrain, a single betting of a new energy source is obviously not a steady choice.

China wants to achieve the "low -carbon, efficient, safe" triangle goal, and it is clear that Bao can not be escorted on electric vehicles. It is also necessary to vigorously promote methanol cars and hydrogen vehicles, which is equivalent to mutual backup.

02

Throughout the global economic history, the rise and fall of the "resource -based city" is the most touching.

Pittsburgh was once a world -renowned "steel capital". In the 1950s, its urban population exceeded 670,000. However, with the decline of the steel industry, the economy of the entire city has fallen, and the population of the city has decreased by half and was laughed at the "rust zone".

Xi Zhangshi in Hokkaido was once the best "coal capital" in Japan. House packages were allocated, and all -inclusive water, electricity, and medical expenses also attracted the attention of male gods Gao Cangjian. However, with the exhaustion of coal resources, the local young people fled, leaving only the elderly and countless house breaking houses.

Venezuela in South America has once leapt to "the country of local tyrants" by super rich oil resources, but now it is on the verge of bankruptcy.

Native

This is the legendary "resource curse". How good the early sales are, how miserable the economy is in the later period.

The rich provinces such as Shanxi and Shaanxi in my country are developing for many parties. On the basis of bear the responsibility of energy guarantee, through multi -channel exploration and attempts, breaking the resource dependence, vigorously carrying out supply -side structural reforms, focusing on the strategic development of power development strategies In emerging industries, methanol industries undoubtedly provide a very potential development option, and Shanxi has achieved remarkable results.

Combined with the "double carbon" background and local resource endowment, we should focus on the development of a new energy industry chain with "coal, oil, gas, wind, light, and water".

In this development process, methanol can play a finishing touch. Because methanol is clean coal, cheap oil, simple gas, moving electric, liquid hydrogen.

Everyone has heard of "coal to change gas" and "coal to electricity", but few people know that coal can also be used as methanol.

The green low -carbon technology transformation of the coal methanol industry, the use of CO₂ resource utilization, and renewable energy green and green oxygen coupling and other technological innovations will become a reality and important way for coal cleaning and efficient use.

"The first province of coal" Shanxi is the birthplace of my country's methanol fuel and methanol automotive technology. Since 1982, the study of methanol cars and methanol fuels. The longest province. The core area of ​​Shanxi methanol economy is located in Jinzhong. Jinzhong has carried out the accumulation of methanol's economic work for nearly 40 years. It is the earliest in China with the earliest work, the most results, and the largest industrialization. Therefore, methanol fuel and methanol car production have always been said to "see China in the world, China see Shanxi, Shanxi to see Jinzhong".

As the birthplace of China's methanol fuel and methanol car technology, Jinzhong has formed a green entire industry chain system from methanol fuel production to methanol production and application.

In early 2022, on the basis of the formation of the new energy vehicle industry cluster, Jinzhong started the construction of a national methanol economic demonstration zone, and strived to take three years for three years and five years.

The methanol economy and ecology of Jinzhong provided new ideas for cracking the "curse of resources", which is worth learning and reference for other "coal capitals".

It is particularly worth mentioning that the methanol economy is not only in the rich provinces of coal.

In fact, such as Ningxia, Qinghai, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Sichuan, Yunnan, Henan and other provinces, they can also take the "methanol economy" express train.

Because these provinces have very rich solar, wind and water energy resources, are the main producing areas of green power in China. However, due to the intermittent and instability of renewable energy such as solar energy, wind energy, and water energy, the phenomenon of abandoned wind, abandonment, and water abandonment in the local area.

If you want to eliminate such waste, you can use green electricity to decompose the aquarium H₂O, produce hydrogen H, and then use the latest technology to capture carbon dioxide CO₂ from the air, and then let H and CO₂ have a chemical reaction, so that CH₄O green methanol is made.

According to Li Can academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the production of 1 ton of green methanol can eliminate more than 6,000 kilowatt -hours, and a methanol synthetic enterprise with a size of millions of tons, which is equivalent to 6 billion kilowatt -hours of electricity, with huge energy storage potential.

What are the use of green methanol? Can I only make fuel for cars?

of course not! Green methanol can also promote green biological manufacturing, such as producing green products such as amino acids, polypeptides, proteins, starch, and can degrade green products such as polymer polymers and drug intermediates.

This can be described as one arrow and three sculptures: it can not only transform the rapid development of renewable energy power into a methanol that can be stored and transported, but also alleviate the energy safety of my country's liquid fuel shortage, and can also help achieve carbon neutrality.

Because of the flooding power of green methanol, it is called "liquid sunlight".

This "sunshine" from resource -resource provinces such as Shanxi will shine on the green economy of the entire China.

If Tesla is the "driving person" of electric vehicles, Geely is the "leader" of global methanol cars.

In 2005, Li Shufu, chairman of Geely Holding Group, who was always "the first to eat crabs", set his sights on methanol cars. So far, the history of Geely Monol Motor has also opened the history of Chinese methanol cars.

In 17 years, Geely mastered the core technology of methanol cars, formed more than 200 patents, and won a number of "world first":

Geely has more than 20 methanol models, which is the world's first methanol model type;

With the number of preservation of 17,000 vehicles, it has become the world's number one methanol car owner;

The maximum bicycle running mileage exceeds 1.5 million kilometers, and the total operating mileage is 10 billion kilometers.

At the same time, Geely is also the first methanol car manufacturer to the world. It has tested and operated projects in Nordic countries such as Denmark and Iceland.

Li Shufu, a "car building madman" this year, released three epic products in a row, which shocked the global methanol industry.

On January 17, Geely's long -range car released China's first new energy dual -hanging train, equipped with independently developed 13L methanol power. In the future, it will also be equipped with a variety of new energy power such as methanol processing and pure electricity.

On June 22, remote cars released a new methanol heavy card, equipped with a new generation of 13L methanol engine. The power can reach 430 horsepower/460/480 horsepower. The fuel cost can save 32%compared to the diesel heavy truck.

On June 30, Geely launched the world's first methanol hybrid car in Guiyang. It consumes as low as 9.2L per 100 kilometers, and the travel cost per kilometer is less than 0.30 yuan. The earth adds 40 square meters of forests.

However, it cannot be denied that the popularity of methanol cars in the Chinese market is not high. Except for pilot cities such as Jinzhong, Xi'an, Guiyang, it is difficult to see methanol cars in other cities.

In addition to a few companies such as Geely Group, all sectors of society have not paid attention to methanol cars. The infrastructure of methanol fuel reserves and transmission and distribution systems, methanol injection stations is not perfect, and consumers' willingness to buy is not high.

Therefore, the era of methanol cars has just taken the first step, and the stars in front.

In order to cross the waves and ride the wind, the National Federation of Industry and Commerce has jointly joined the National Federation of Industry and Commerce Petroleum Industry Chamber of Commerce to report the proposal "The National Two Council" report "About the incorporation of methanol into the national energy system and regulate its promotion and application".

Experts hope that the state will formulate relevant policies and implementation rules to promote the promotion and application of methanol fuels and methanol vehicles as soon as possible to ensure the international leadership of my country's methanol fuel application technology and industry.When the blueprint takes into reality, China will lead and lead a new track, which constitutes a trend with Japanese hydrogen energy vehicles and Sino -US electric vehicles.

It must be a rejoicing moment, we wait and see.
