In the first half of the year, the scale of new energy vehicles reached a new high

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, July 19 (Reporter Zhang Xinxin) Tian Yulong, chief engineer of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said at the press conference of the National New Office on the 19th that since this year, my country's new energy vehicle industry overcomes more difficulties such as the epidemic. Essence In the first half of the year, the production and sales of new energy vehicles completed 2.661 million and 2.6 million, respectively, an average of 1.2 times year -on -year, and the market penetration rate was 21.6%.

Tian Yulong said that while the scale of new energy vehicles reached a record high, technological innovation made a breakthrough. Lidar, domestic chips, and car basic computing platforms implement car loading applications. The energy density of mass production ternary batteries has reached the world's highest 300 watt -hour/kg. At the same time, 1.3 million new construction facilities were built in the first half of the year, a year -on -year increase of 3.8 times. More than 10,000 power battery recycling services have been built across the country, and the supporting system has been accelerated.

He said that the joint department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is actively studying the exemption of new energy vehicle purchase tax extensions.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will also continuously improve the safety technical standards of new energy vehicles with relevant departments, improve the performance levels of power battery thermal output alarms, safety protection, low temperature adaptation and other performance levels, and promote the integration and development of electricity and intelligent networking technology.

He said that in the next step, it will also do a good job of providing stable prices for car chips and upstream raw materials, encouraging conditions with conditions to introduce high gold -promoting consumption policies, carry out a new round of new energy vehicles to go to the countryside, organize and implement a comprehensive public domain comprehensive field Electrifying cities pilot, speed up the construction of charging and replacement facilities, and promote the realization of information sharing and unified settlement.
