www.chinabuses.org: According to the news from Minister of Science and Technology says China hopes to see 60,000 energy-saving and new energy vehicles on its roads by 2012, among which various kinds of hybrids will account for over 95 percent. So far, 10 kinds of new energy vehicles have been granted production licenses, and a batch of new energy vehicles including zero-emission electric vehicles will appear on the market.
Currently, the Ministry of Science and Technology, hand in hand with the Ministry of Finance, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology already launched the national energy-saving, new energy vehicle demonstration project in many major cities in China. These pilot cities will promote the use of new energy vehicles, mainly hybrids, for public transport, taxis, official business, municipal administration, postal services and other forms of public transport. In some big cities, the ministry will promote electric and fuel cell vehicles.
Low-emission hybrid electric vehicles have already entered the phase of large-scale production. Over one million hybrid vehicles have already been sold globally, while the mass production of zero-emission vehicles will be realized in 2015, a decade earlier than originally expected.
