BYD special mode

December 31st, 2009

We never felt afraid of technology. Others have it, we dare to do; others not, we dare to think. We always do a proof of title to prove that technology can change lives, change the world. We want to use battery technology plus automotive technology and build out the electric vehicle technology, using electric cars, green technology to achieve the dream of mankind. “This is for justice in the” build your dream “(Build your dream) of BYD head Wang Chuanfu words.

In the industry have claimed that Wang Chuanfu body can see that the former General Electric (GE) Jack Welch, the legendary head of the (Jack Welch) style, as well as the legendary inventor Thomas Edison (Thomas Edison) characteristics. In fact, this technology entrepreneurs are pouring in BYD him a “magic” is different fromVGP-BPS8, VGP-BPS8A, ,VGP-BPS8B, general manufacturing enterprise model innovation: vertical integration of industrial chain, to the profit part of the entire industry, as far as possible to stay in business within the walls. In this regard, deputy general manager of BYD Auto Sales Company Wang Jun-CBN journalists interpreted as a right, fundamental to the success BYD is “to create fully completed thoroughly.”

BYD are also concerned about product manufacturing and production methods, that is manufactured more than just the product, but also involved in the industry to change its production system is mode of production “BYD-oriented.” To truly understand the “BYD” of the production of different, it must be a simple comparison with the traditional way. Bring China’s manufacturing industry, it is the first impression is often low-cost products with low price worked hard for the market, enterprises are only earn a small profit. Industry standards, core technology, advanced equipment, etc. These are a monopoly in the hands of transnational giants.

It’s like a race, the rules formulated by others in the game, but when you start when the competitor has long been a leader in laps. If so rules of the game play, BYD is obviously very difficult than others.

Wang Chuanfu seen this from the start on the “do not follow common sense out the card,” For instance, he put the battery production process can be decomposed into a month to complete the process manually, such as “hand-jig plus” the cost of the production line to produce only 1 million yuan, but to produce less expensive than its competitors half of the battery, the company and therefore profit margins as high as 200%.

Strategic expert Zeng Ming once made of this method is called BYD is China’s unique “cost innovation” a typical representative, in his view the greatest advantage is that BYD fixed assets investment is very low, the corresponding depreciation costs are very low. BYD depreciation costs may be only 3% to 4%, while the Sanyo automatic production line may be 30% to 40%.

This pattern is not only used in battery production, is also copied to make the car. Automobile industry 100 years of history, has already gone through vertically Ford era of vertically integrated manufacturing. In the whole industry chain, from the mold, tires until the rear-view mirror, each component has a ready-made products. Such an environment, companies need to do seems to be based on market demand, design, production models, and then sell. But in that VGP-BPS9,, VGP-BPS9/B, VGP-BPS9/S ,VGP-BPS9A, VGP-BPS9A/Bcase, any new entrants are determined by the cost structure, transnational giants leading the technical standards, manufacturing equipment, competition can only be around the cheap labor cost. Transnational giants rush into China, this labor advantage does not exist any more.

BYD broke the auto industry such rules, at least 70% of the parts produced by the division within the company to BYD F3, for example, their parts and components except tires, windshield, and a few general pieces of things, including the steering, damping, seats, doors and even CD and DVD, and all their own production. BYD Auto’s vertical integration strategy to maximize use of resources, cost savings, creating a product cost-effective advantages, frequently set off a price war continued to rewrite the context of the industry’s bottom line price, BYD Auto opponents far behind them. BYD Auto sales so far this year has exceeded 40 million units, an increase of more than 100%.

However, Wang Chuanfu was his intention, he said: “Traditional fuel car is just a transitional phase, BYD will be directly across to the electric car.” In December last year, BYD launched the first dual-mode batteries-chargers.net/”>electric vehicle F3DM. In this regard, the Japanese media, commented: “When five years ago, Wang Chuanfu proposed BYD to enter the automotive market, many people only laugh, but now, new energy vehicles in China has been the commercialization of the signs might BYD dark horse is the next-generation vehicles. “

Sharing power lithium battery

December 24th, 2009

Shanghai Automotive, investment in the hands of the U.S. lithium battery A123, Huafang Textile, development of the energy of lithium iron phosphate, vehicles, Fukuda and the Peking University establishment first of a new cooperation on energy from the battery …a time for companies involved in wind energy and water in the lithium battery.

World lithium battery market car show explosive growth, is one of many listed companies competing to make a major incentive. There are forecasts that by 2014, cars with lithium batteries market size reached U.S. $ 24.8 million be violent than the increase in 2008 214 times. Before this event, the investment to exploit opportunities to become a consensus: the car companies have extended the industrial chain of battery power, battery power production enterprises are investing with vehicle manufacturers to carry out strategic cooperation, and new enterprises also want to set foot in the lithium battery gluttonous feast to seek joint ventures to share points of the Copa America.

Constraints to gradually break the ice

Reduce emissions and oil resources in response to the twin pressures of an increasingly scarce in most countries in developing new energy vehicles will be considered to revive the auto industry and energy saving More importantly, while the reduction in the most stressful, and the United States to promote the standard-bearer for the development of new energy vehicles. Recently, the United States issued the Joint Declaration, said the two sides will launch in the U.S. initiative electric car, the two countries in the following years, several 1 million electric cars in use.

The U. S. Highway Administration optimistic forecasts for 2015, the U.S. car market, approximately 20% of the number of vehicles for hybrid cars, the market size to nearly $ 300 million. VGP-BPS9, , VGP-BPS9/B,  VGP-BPS9/S , VGP-BPS9A,  VGP-BPS9A/BCurrently, the market share of U.S. of hybrid vehicles is only 3%. Its the same time, predicted that by 2020, the global automotive market will have half of all new cars sold with varying degrees of hybrid technology.

In China, launched in March this year, “the restructuring of the automotive industry and the revitalization of planning” in the development of new energy vehicles have also developed a broad target - over the next three years, China will be 500,000 electrical plug-in hybrid and common type of hybrid Qijuchanneng Energy. In 2012 a new production vehicles, there will be 10% energy saving energy and new vehicles, new energy vehicles are expected to reach 500 billion yuan of output value.

The face of such tempting cake, domestic car companies have exposure to them, towards the top. Compared to conventional vehicles, the new vehicle energy technology gap with foreign countries do not, the possibility of double overtaking, and more have implications for domestic car companies to increase investment in new vehicles optimism of energy.

Market, Shanghai Automotive, according to business planning, in 2010, a huge fuel efficiency of 20% of the Roewe 750 hybrid cars are mixing the dough, in 2011, Shanghai GM will launch with General S. U. RS synchronized electric car in 2012, low fuel consumption over 50% of plug the Roewe 550 cars will be available in high volumes in the mixture, the same year, SAIC’s own brand of pure electric cars that push the market really zero emissions.

It should be mentioned that the December 6, Chang’an Automobile Benben successful MINI pure electric vehicle assembly line, which is China’s first pure electric vehicles. Zhi-Xiang, along with a weaker grade of gasoline hybrid-electric vehicles, Zhi-Xiang gasoline-electric hybrid cars with moderate, Zhi-Xiang plug-in hybrid electric vehicles Cheung Yuet, Changan Automobile New Product Line automotive energy getting better. Under the plan, Changan Automobile adheres to the integration of a variety of new technology approach to energy development, the early days of hybrid gas vehicles, pure electric vehicles as the focus, the progressive development of battery vehicles fuel, vehicles hydrogen internal combustion engine.

In addition, Brilliance Auto, Geely Automobile, Dongfeng and other new energy vehicles have launched their new energy vehicles. Today, however, are mostly government agencies and institutional clients to use, not sell to individual consumers. As a national leader in new energy vehicles BYD, although already introduced three electric vehicles, which at the end of the list F3DM people initially expected in October this year, consumer sales, but because conditions are not ripe yet has to push the personal terminal market.

Analysts said that in addition to electric cars themselves factors, the current limitations in their major external factors to promote the burden of convenience and acquisition costs remain high, but these two restrictions is expected to break the ice.

Construction of the charging station is inseparable from the support network. National Grid parties to accept an interview with the China Securities admitted charging the electric vehicle market immeasurable space, the company is ready to build. In the past two years, there were 10 provincial-level enterprises in research and experimentation, the company also conducted a number of major car companies and research cooperation, has made a lot of data, is currently in full swing in preparation for loading station building. It should be noted that the three major oil companies have also shown great enthusiasm and CNOOC are now in the main attack, such as electric cars and cargo nets.

The other constraints - high purchase price of electric vehicles, analysts pointed out that to solve this problem, besides the need to reduce the cost of car prices in itself, but also requires the government to reduce subsidies. At present, most countries have subsidies for new energy vehicles, like the UK to buy PHEV and EV available for rewarding 2000-5000 kilos, Japan, electricity, natural gas and other clean energy vehicles to give 50 % of tax cut. To encourage the development of new energy vehicles, financial subsidy policies of China have also been introduced, such as fuel-efficient hybrid vehicles, according to the standard rate of subsidy is divided into five files, the grant maximum per vehicle for every 50 thousand yuan; pure electric vehicles, the cross-subsidy of 60,000 yuan each. However, subsidy policies implemented yet, the price of motor vehicles new energy Purdah only to marry. However, this can not make the car as they wait too long, the new energy vehicle country supervision of major VGP-BPS8, VGP-BPS8A,  ,VGP-BPS8Bprojects, said Wang Binggang, head of the Consultative Group of Experts on the bus, etc. subsidy policy has been applied, is estimates that the subsidy policy that individual consumers soon introduced.

The outbreak of the market will grow

Analysts said that with the comfort of subsidies and charging solution, the new energy vehicle market will grow explosively, as the scale of new energy vehicles rapid expansion of motive power batteries, motors, control electricity, etc. will significantly increase the demand for which is expected to become the next 10 years the core driver of industry growth. Among these, the performance of the battery power of the development of new energy vehicles plays an important role. Strength, consistency, security and other indicators will determine the future of new energy vehicles, the search for higher specific energy than high power, low self discharge and long service life and safety of a good motive power battery , becoming a major topic of new energy vehicles.

Current hybrid cars use nickel-metal hydride technology of the larger battery, but the nickel-metal hydride battery a number of technical features such as energy density, charge and discharge rate approaches the theoretical limit . The lithium battery has an energy density, high capacity, no memory, etc., several automakers and battery manufacturers unanimous backing of the current national focus on R & D is the lithium ion batteries.

According to the different cathode materials, lithium batteries are lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide, ternary materials, and four types of lithium iron phosphate. Shen Wan report notes that the comparison, lithium cobalt oxide biggest problem is the lack of security (150-degree high temperature explosive), the high cost and short life cycle, the safety of lithium manganese oxide much better than lithium, cobalt, but the high temperature environment life cycle is even worse (500 times). Lithium iron phosphate discharge due to high power, low cost (about 18 ~ 30 yuan / ton), fast charging and longer (over 1000) in high temperature environment, stability high temperature (temperature above 300 degrees only security risks), with a good safety performance, and therefore the driving force is the best vehicle to use cathode materials of lithium. At present, prices of China’s auto models presented pure electric vehicles, power batteries are lithium batteries, Chery, BYD uses lithium iron phosphate.

Japan Professional market data research committee are the motive power battery market show explosive growth. Fuji Research Institute of Economics and Statistics, due to environment friendly vehicles on a global scale are sought, sells hybrid and electric cars coming years, the market for automotive batteries is expanding rapidly. It is expected that in 2009 shipments of automotive lithium batteries will be ¥ 10,400,000,000 in 2008, based on double to 250 billion yen, but in 2014 the market size will rapidly expand to 2.25 trillion yen (approximately 24, 8 billion U.S. dollars), is about 215 times in 2008.

Shen million, the report also noted that the motive power battery space for the future market of China shows an increase of 10 times: in 2012 the new energy vehicles 1 million, if the nickel-hydrogen batteries represent 70%, Price 25,000 yuan / Taiwan, lithium batteries accounted for 30% of the, Unit 50 thousand yuan / Taiwan, in 2012, nickel-capacity battery market hydrogen reach 17.5 billion the ability of the lithium battery market will reach 150 billion yuan, global market scale will reach several hundred million dollars.

Listed companies are scrambling for gold

Faced with such large cake motive power battery market, listed companies have invested in the U.S. share to sub-cups, while the car has a factory car business has become a major promoter.

The battery started to do in order to convert the car market BYD Li-ion batteries in the natural power to show their abilities. In August this year, BYD battery electric vehicle production digital battery base in Huizhou in Guangdong completed their basic shoulder BYD electric vehicle technologies - lithium battery production tasks, which can be carried out large-scale production of batteries lithium.

Coincidentally, in order to gain technology leadership, a stable supply of battery power in the passenger area of new energy to accomplish something Futian car, plus 10 at the end with the internal battery maker known Lithium Peking University technology industry first set up the Beijing Automobile Investment Co., Ltd. invested new energy Battery Technology Co., Ltd., Futian Automobile invested 10 million yuan, accounting for 10% of the capital.

More notably, 12 17, Shanghai Automotive lithium iron phosphate batteries and mastery of basic technologies for U.S. systems A123 Inc. jointly announced that the two parties established in accordance with the proportion of the participation of Shanghai 51:49 Czech Republic, New Power Battery Systems Co., Ltd., joint development, production and sales of the system battery Vehicle fuel in order to fill the position of market leadership. The move also marks have been “all thunder and no rain” in the great inner-scale models of new energy vehicles to take strong measures.

In the factory vehicles, while an extension of the lithium battery, lithium battery production companies are also actively cooperate with the automobile business. CITIC Guoan and Toyota of Japan on lithium carbonate and lithium salts series products, including implementation of new energy cooperation Cooperation signed a “letter of intent.” CITIC Guoan, the Japanese side to designate the exclusive agent in Japan and the Japanese at least annually a certain amount of lithium carbonate products. Since then, 20 October Fosugufen to increase the lithium ion battery market position and the level of separation, decided to have a steady hand BYD in market demand and broad market prospects for development in Foshan Jinhui high high-tech companies raise capital to expand the project-separator lithium ion battery, in order to improve the global competitiveness of the company .

In addition, Jiangsu Guotai , China Baoan, and a number of companies listed are the gold lithium batteries. In general, Shanshangufen has formed a relatively complete industrial chain, the company of a single-material Li-ion battery anode begin, one after another to build the battery material lithium cathode, electrolyte and so the full lithium-ion battery material production lines, has become the largest lithium-ion battery materials supplier.

there are worries behind China wind power development

December 23rd, 2009

For wind power, for example, several years ago because some methods of capital optimistic about wind power equipment market, swarming, and not on imported cars, that is, to seek licensing as a result, domestic manufacturers of the majority of fans do not own the intellectual property rights. For example, domesticVGP-BPS10,, VGP-BPS10A, VGP-BPS10A/B, VGP-BPS10B wind power expert, Chen Tao, said: “For example, Shanghai Electric, the company’s license to buy German DeWind payment of the deposit, the Germans have learned from the drawings of how to make a practical set of equipment of wind power can not make any changes to innovate. There is a separate property rights, which means that technically can only be slavishly followed the German to go.

2009 Hui-financed 3.0 billion in China in the world wind energy Vestas Wind authorities announced huge media: Vestas in China’s goal is to achieve 100% localization of production of fans. Recently, however, “Economic Information Daily” journalists went to the city of Aarhus, Denmark, Vestas is headquartered in the interview showed that this world-class wind power company, the basic technology — Control Systems factory and R & D Center, failed to translate into any country other than Denmark. His control over the system, plant Thoroddsen president, said: “At its core technology, plant production, sufficient to meet the needs of Vestas in the world of fans.”

Solar energy, as well. XU Hong-Hua investigator told reporters: “Our country is now the world’s solar energy industry, one of the largest markets, but the market itself can not be exchanged for advanced technologies. Lack of capacities for independent innovation, sustainable development, lack of opportunities, is a soft underbelly of solar energy in China. ”

According to Great Wall Securities analyst Zhou Tao introduction of a new energy industry, although some domestic enterprises to become the leading solar photovoltaic companies in the world, but in the manufacture of photovoltaic cells, the most sharply-edge core technologies have not yet mastered the hands of the digital battery  Chinese people. He said: “The world today can be put into commercial operation is the generation of single-crystal solar cells and modules, and second-generation thin film batteries and components for manufacturing thin-film battery components in China in the absence of core technologies, we have in the United States, Switzerland, Japan , etc. The government purchase the entire production line. “

new paper batteries with highlt improved working efficiency

December 22nd, 2009

One day the battery light can be produced from plain, to slowly disappear and the printing e-mail device power of e-books and news online, send and read.
 
California, scientists at Stanford University recently reported that it had been coated with a layer of carbon nano silver paper materials in a battery of “paper” is expected to be a wholePanasonic  new light and efficient storage methods. Help coating attached to the same characteristics of paper that attaches to single-wall carbon nanotubes and silver nanowire thin film. Preliminary studies have found that using silicon nanowires made of batteries, the efficiency is now used to power devices such as lithium-ion batteries Notebook 10 times.

The scientists published in the U.S. National Academy of Sciences “, on paper, said:” Using sophisticated technology, the document sheet of paper with a conductivity in the collector and the electrode can be done at low cost, weight lightweight, and efficient power storage devices.

People can use this battery for electronic devices, or hybrid power supply. The use of such batteries, electronic devices are lighter, and more, but one day may make electronic paper products. Weight and battery life of cars and trucks in the commercial development faces a huge obstacle.

Stanford University associate professor of materials science and engineering and co-authors of this paper Cui Yi (Yi Cui), said: “Our society really needs a low-cost storage devices of high energy, like batteries and simple supercapacitors. ” Yi Cui said that in addition to portable electronic devices and portable electronic Dell Latitude D830 batteryDell Latitude X1 batteryDell XPS M1210 batteryDell XPS M140 batterydevices that can be used outside, “Our role supercapacitors can also be applied to all who need instant high energy equipment energy. Because the cost of our paper batteries and super capacitors is very low, are also applied to the network of energy reserves. “University of California, Berkeley, chemistry professor Peidong Yang (Yang Peidong) says the technology will be commercialized in the near future.

A lack of core technologies of clean energy in China

December 21st, 2009

The registered capital of 16.74 billion yuan of the Sino-French joint venture — Taishan Nuclear Power Joint Venture Co., Ltd. was formally established. The company is currently the largest investment in power sector joint ventures. This project is the rapid development of clean energy in China in miniature.

There is such a set of data show that China has built the world’s largest nuclear power in the country: As of the end of November this year, already has 11 nuclear reactors, with a total generating capacity of 9.1 million kilowatts, to approve the construction of nuclear power generating units 24 units, with a total installedsony VGP-BPL2 batterysony VGP-BPS2 batterysony VGP-BPS2A battery capacity of 25.4 million kilowatts. China’s wind power installed capacity increased to double in three consecutive years, as of the first three quarters of this year to incomplete statistics showed that the total cumulative wind power installed capacity of the country has reached 15.85 million kilowatts, by the end of 2010 is expected to more than 30 million kilowatts by 2020 will exceed 100 million kilowatts . China’s solar photovoltaic and solar thermal power industry in recent years showed rapid development momentum, particularly in photovoltaic capacity and output has ranked first in the world … …

German Institute for World Economics expert reasons Cihuo Fu said: “China is expected to surpass Germany in 2009 as total investment in renewable energy projects than any other country.” But the economic research devoted to the world’s energy experts also said: “China field of renewable energy has no core technology. “the frank” foreigners “exposed the Chinese clean energy industry, behind the prosperity of embarrassment.

Focus on a “Scenery,” behind: lack of self-innovation, sustainable development, worrying

Turning to achievements in the field of clean energy, China in recent years, wind power and solar power and other renewable energy industry, the rapid growth in the most “scenery.”

Let me talk about wind power. From the National Energy Board data show that, as of the end of 2008, China’s wind power installed capacity increased to double for three consecutive years, reaching 12.17 million kilowatts, ranking fourth in the world; the first three quarters of this year, 19 wind power in key provinces (autonomous regions) New 93 wind power projects completed, with a total installed capacity of 5.59 million kilowatts, a total installed capacity of the national total of about 15.85 million kilowatts. Is expected by the end of 2010 is expected to exceed 30 million kilowatts.

China’s wind power industry’s rapid development makes the World Wide Fund for Nature in Beijing on behalf of Mr. Dermot Gorman highly “encouraged.” Vividly, he said: “China’s per hour on the installation of one megawatt of wind turbines, more than a week to add a thermal power plant is more encouraging.”

Besides solar power. According to statistics, 1 / 3 of the solar cell manufacturers from China, this figure is six times that the United States. National Energy Expert Advisory Committee experts, Xu Hong, director of China Institute of Electrical Engineering Chinese Academy of Sciences told the “Economic Information Daily” reporter, China’s current production capacity of solar photovoltaic and output ranks first in the world; with the “Bright Project”, “send electricity to Rural “,” Golden Sun Project “and a number of national implementation of the project, the domestic solar power generation market also started to quick start.

However, China’s wind power and solar power, “scenery” but there are worries behind.

To wind power, for example, a few years ago because the separate ways capital optimistic about wind power equipment market, swarmed, not the imported machine, that is, to seek licensing as a result, domestic manufacturers of the majority of fans do not own intellectual property rights. For example, the domestic wind power experts, Chen Tao, said: “For example, Shanghai Electric (9.37,0.02,0.21%) is to buy German Dewind’s license, pay a deposit, the Germans were taught to the drawings of hands-on how to make a set of wind power equipment can not be make any changes to innovate. not independent property rights, which means that technically can only be slavishly followed the German to go. ”

2009 Hui-funded 3.0 billion into China the world’s wind power industry wind power giant Vestas announced to the media: Vestas in China’s goal is to achieve 100% localization of fan production. However, the recent “Economic Information Daily” journalists went to the city of Aarhus, Denmark, Vestas headquarters in an interview found that this world-class wind power company, the core technology — Control Systems factory and R & D Center, has failed to transfer of any country other than Denmark. Its control system, plant president Thoroddsen, said: “by the plant’s core technology products sufficient to meet the needs of the world’s Vestas fans.”

The solar energy industry as well. XU Hong-hua researcher told reporters: “Our country is now the world’s solar power industry, one of the largest markets, but the market alone can not be exchanged leading-edge technology. Inadequate capacity of independent innovation, sustainable development, lack of capacity, is the soft underbelly of China’s solar power industry.”

According to Great Wall Securities analyst Zhou Tao introduction of new energy industry, although some domestic enterprises have become the world’s leading solar photovoltaic companies, but in manufacturing photovoltaic cells, the most cutting-edge core technologies have not yet mastered the hands of the Chinese people. He said: “At present, the world can be put into commercial operation is the generation of single-crystal solar cells and modules and second-generation thin-film batteries and components in the manufacture of thin-film battery components in China’s lack of core technologies, we must to the United States, Switzerland, Japan, etc. State purchase of the entire production line. ”

Focus on two third-generation nuclear power: the United States technology, the Chinese market

Standing to solve their own energy needs and development of low-carbon economy, height, China attaches great importance to nuclear power industry. In the search for clean energy, increasing demands for domestic and international situation, China has even become a major force in leading the recovery of nuclear power. Especially for third-generation AP1000 nuclear power technology to China as the world’s first “crab-eating person” and subject to wide attention around the world.

However, in the nuclear power industry, China seems to have been playing the role of the technology transferee. As we all know, the third-generation nuclear power technology quoted from the United States.

In 2006, the U.S. Westinghouse AP1000 to overcome its Areva’s EPR, winning China’s third largest single-generation nuclear power, for three, Haiyang Nuclear Power Station to provide such units, including four units, including third-generation AP1000 nuclear power technology. When we are proud to claim that “AP1000 is the world’s only through the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission certified and approved by the three generations of semi-nuclear technology”, battery for camcorderwhen, in fact, the need to clearly understand that China’s third-generation nuclear power (AP1000) is actually the U.S. Westinghouse Electric the first time in the global market transformation.

In fact, China’s large-scale development of nuclear power has always existed behind the core technology for the introduction of foreign disputes.

Nuclear power was a senior expert of China’s Zhang Luqing introduced three generations of nuclear power who hold different views. He said in an interview, in view of both the United States, AP1000, or the French EPR in the world have not yet completed and commercial operation of the precedent, and many industry experts when tenders were invited on the proposal could be the first to introduce a single unit, and so it started completed and power generation, depending on the effect of the follow-up before deciding how to develop, rather than once as they are now the introduction of four generating units at an investment of nearly 100 billion, too risky.

China’s introduction of Westinghouse’s AP1000 nuclear power technology, Beijing University, Professor Lu Feng has written that China should not give up independent R & D projects in the Qinshan mature second-generation nuclear reactor technology to improve.

“But already a fait accompli, to arguments that no longer necessary. What is needed now is to build as soon as possible of these units.” Zhang Luqing told the “Economic Information Daily” reporter in 2010, is a crucial time for the node. Westinghouse developed the ability to schedule and through the main pump prototype testing, will be China’s first AP1000 nuclear power in determining the progress of the first key project construction.

It is understood that the development of nuclear power facilities from the start, China’s third generation of nuclear power from the beginning proposed to introduce a “three-step” strategy: the first step away from the main square, our full participation, completion of three, and four sets Haiyang AP1000 units; the second step, focus on ourselves and foreign support, the formation of coastal and inland site of the AP1000 standard design, build inland and coastal group of third-generation nuclear power plant, the completion of digestion and absorption of AP1000 technology; third step, the formation of CAP1400 standard design, and built special CAP1400 major science and technology demonstration projects to fully complete the independent innovation, to form China with independent intellectual property rights of advanced nuclear power technology and brands.

But three generations of nuclear power itself, “U.S. technology, the Chinese market,” the reality, but it has always been China’s nuclear power were the pains of heart.

Focus on three low-carbon War: China needs to seize the high ground of clean energy technologies

With the wind sweeping through the world of low-carbon, clean energy industry is the world’s all-round development ushered in the spring. However, when the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen the venue into a different economies and reduce carbon emissions around the struggle between the “battlefield”, we were surprised to find that the concept of low carbon and clean energy technologies in developed countries will also become constrained progress in developing countries a new instrument.

Carbon tariffs in many developed countries and economies rampant. June 22 this year, was the House of Representatives passed “The United States Clean Energy Security Act” provisions, including China, the United States the right to non-quota countries in the implementation of carbon emissions carbon levy tariffs on imported goods. The Act came into effect from 2020. The EU tariffs on the one hand, in furtherance of its carbon-win public support, on the one hand began to redoubling its efforts to promote the technical aspects of carbon tariff to do to prepare. While France made clear that carbon tariffs will be January 1, 2010 introduction date.

Carbon tariffs for the promotion of a big noise about the same time, developed countries also use its advantage of clean energy technologies to developing countries to clamp down on. As the world’s largest developing country, China’s clean energy industry, although the achievements of world interest, but the lack of core technologies Querang we have to pay more price.

U.S. President George Obama said: “In the development of new energy sources in the world’s leading countries, will lead the 21st century global economy.” Chinese-American Energy Secretary Steven Chu during the visit of China’s new energy and renewable energy development to give highly appreciated. However, we note that many Sino-US cooperation in the field of new energy related projects, most of the U.S. technology export to the Chinese market. For example, Westinghouse’s third-generation nuclear power company AES coal mine methane projects lack the wind and so on.

“Do not have the core technology, we will be controlled by others.” XU Chinese researcher told reporters that “in the global clean energy development path, China must establish an independent intellectual property rights, sustainable development, industrial system.”

NDRC Energy Research Institute researcher at ZHOU Feng accept the “Economic Information Daily,” an interview, said that China should not just be satisfied with a variety of clean energy VGP-BPS8VGP-BPS8A, ,  VGP-BPS8B  VGP-BPS8,  VGP-BPS8A, ,  VGP-BPS8B available to the huge capacity, but rather to the independent intellectual property rights direction. He said: “In the past we have a lot of money for the expansion of clean energy capacity, the next step should be turn into core technology R & D and research on.”
