What is the Definition of New Energy Vehicles?
1 Answers
The definition of new energy vehicles: The terminology varies by country. In Japan, they are commonly referred to as "low-emission vehicles." In 2001, Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Ministry of the Environment, and Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry formulated the "Action Plan for the Development and Dissemination of Low-Emission Vehicles." The low-emission vehicles covered by this plan include five categories: natural gas-fueled vehicles, hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles, methanol-fueled vehicles, and clean gasoline vehicles that meet the strictest emission and fuel efficiency standards. Below is a related introduction: Technology: New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new onboard power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving, resulting in vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. Types: New energy vehicles include four major types: hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), battery electric vehicles (BEV, including solar-powered vehicles), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV), and other new energy vehicles (such as those using supercapacitors, flywheels, and other high-efficiency energy storage devices). Unconventional vehicle fuels refer to fuels other than gasoline and diesel.
