: Ministry of Transportation held urban building of public transport conference in Xi’an, where the first batch of enterprises building City of Public Transport stated their experience. Promotion of energy conservation and new-energy automobiles got the most attention, especially application of LNG public transport.
In Dalian, 713 renewal buses worthy of 0.37 billion Yuan have been into operation since City of Public Transport started. Energy saving and new-energy buses were 394 units (30 hybrid buses, 20 pure electric buses, and 344 LNG buses), taking up 55%. In Beijing, over 3,000 large LNG buses ordered would make new contributions to Plan of Blue Sky in Beijing. In Guiyang, 2,227 public buses have used LNG clean fuel since Oil to Gas project started in 2005, which helped Guiyang become representative of national capitals completely using clean energy. In fact, LNG public bus promotion has been all over China besides pilot cities of City of Public Transport.
Automobile Manufacturers Follow the Trend
Technology of LNG Vehicle Gets Mature
Accelerated urbanization process, urban traffic jam and exacerbated environment push the upgrading and transformation of transportation industry. Automobile manufacturers must follow the trend by developing and designing reliable and excellent products to satisfy market demanding. At present, domestic major bus manufacturers all launch LNG vehicles, in which Foton AUV bus stands out.
Beijing Public Transport and Foton signed another 3,012 LNG buses in this August after the former 18m large AUV LNG buses order, which motivates national scale.
It is learned that BJ6127 suburban bus, BJ6128 double deck LNG urban bus, and BJ6180 low-floor LNG urban bus purchased by Beijing Public Transport are all classic AUV buses with complete and enough research by Foton. In order to lower operational cost and decrease environmental pollution, AUV LNG bus combines I-POWER power technology, full-load body and e-AIR engine intelligent cooling system all in itself.
AUV LNG bus is of highly integrated systematic design. Its cylinder is in separated closed compartment, isolating all wire electrical to avoid hidden danger. Meanwhile, anti-leaking device in cylinder compartment can avoid leaking accumulative gas and subsequent explosion. AUV LNG bus adopts A-level non-ignitable material. What’s more, leaking alarm and auto fire extinguishing devices are equipped in engine compartment and get connected with monitoring screen on instrumental panel. The passive security gets higher.
