The expected move to ban diesel and petrol cars and vans by governments around the world is due to environment pollution and low transportation efficiency. Therefore, the establishment of intelligent and networked transportation in a greener mode is of urgency. This transformation will not only change traffic modes in the future, but also conduce to sustainable development of mankind and nature.
In the Bus World Kortrijk held on October 20th, 2017, CRRC launched its ACE-Conference centering on autonomous, connected and electric technologies. It also fully exhibits its brand style by introducing its cutting-edge products, including the 18-meter rapid city bus with intelligent assistant driving and T-power high efficient system, to the European high-end market.
Belgium, reputed as the “Crossroad of Europe”, is an important partner of China in the “Belt and Road Initiative”. It is where the Bus World Kortrijk holds, the largest auto show with the longest history in the world. This show acts as an annual event to attract numerous world-renowned purchasers, and an important platform to demonstrate brand values and seek global partnership. In recent years, more and more Chinese products and advanced technologies are introduced to Europe and the world from here.
After years of exploration in public transportation, CRRC launches the “ACE Green Intelligent Transportation Solution”. It focuses on building autonomous, connected and electric transportation, which is meaningful to the future world. As proved by relevant studies, the employment of intelligent transportation will reduce fuel consumption and exhaust gas emission by 30% and 26% respectively. For one 12-meter pure electric bus with operating range of 70,000km running for one year, 1000 kg exhaust gas emission can be reduced.
The 5th Generation of CRRC Pure Electric Drive System "T-power"
With proprietary core technologies including radar warning, precise distance measuring with laser locator, new positioning system for road condition recognition, infrared camera broadening night vision, wheel coder for automatic car speed adjusting and stereo image displaying integrated, the driverless technology provided by CRRC can realize intelligent start/stop, automatic turn, automatic acceleration, intelligent obstacle avoidance, lane-keeping and intelligent charging.
Moreover, supported by big data analysis, Internet of Things and intelligent management tools integrating “human, vehicle and lane”, CRRC intelligent management system is capable to collect, transmit, store, analyze and display vehicle information data, providing real-time safety management, vehicle condition analysis, driving behavior analysis, fault warning and remote diagnosis, emergency rescue assistant, maintenance and other services.
As a prominent rail transit giant, CRRC has long been regarding electric, intelligent and networked transportation as the main trend of future travel, and committed to exploration and solution of city transportation from different perspectives. Therefore, CRRC determines to launch the golden product of new electric vehicles (NEV) to the market.
CRRC’s comprehensive sustainable transportation solution covers several areas including high speed railway, interurban railway, low speed maglev train, subway, light rail, commuter car, main transit line, country bus, microcirculation bus and intelligent driving technology. In August 2017, CRRC launched its third generation 12-meter pure electric intelligent driving bus which can guarantee safe and steady drive by detecting changes of surroundings automatically without control or intervene from the driver.
Relying on automotive electric drive and core control technology originated from high-speed railway, CRRC set foot in NEV field at the beginning of the 21 century. It has dedicated itself to building a technology platform and industrial system of electric vehicles and become a diversified company in this realm. Today, CRRC not only owns leading NEV technologies, but also provides a series of NEV power system.
CRRC, after years of development, has provided NEV service in a number of grand international events as 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, 2010 Shanghai Expo, 2010 Asian Games, 2014 FIFA World Cup and FIBA Asia Championship. There are over 30,000 new energy city buses travelling 3.5 billion kilometers in nearly a hundred cities. Electric drive system and complete vehicle of CRRC, characterized by zero pollution and zero emission, are contributing to the air quality in this planet.
In the future, advanced technologies as extended-range plug-in, pure electric drive and fuel cell will continue to power CRRC as a pioneer of electric vehicles and steward of environment. With the high-speed railway technology as the pillar, CRRC will cover diversified green products including public transportation, road transportation, scenic spot vehicles, light vehicles, logistics vehicles, trucks and limousines, so as to provide a safer and greener intelligent transportation solution with higher efficiency.
