  • Development & Policy Forecast for Global and Chinese NEV Markets
    Development & Policy Forecast for Global and Chinese NEV Markets in 2021 Invited by China EV 100, officials and experts from domestic and foreign government agencies, industry associations, research institutions and businesses attended the 7th China EV 100 Forum in January 15-17, 2021. The summary below captures the observations and insight of the speakers at the forum on the industry trend and policy forecast in the world and China in 2021. Ⅰ. 2021 Global & China Auto Market Trend 1. In 2021, the global auto market may resume growth, and the NEV boom is set to continue. 2020 saw a prevalent downturn of the auto sector in major countries due to the onslaught of COVID-19, yet the sales of NEVs witnessed a spike despite the odds, with much greater penetration in various countries. The monthly penetration of electric vehicles in Germany jumped from 7% to 20% in half a year and is expected to hit 12% in 2020, up 220% year on year; Norway reported an 80% market share of EVs in November, which is projected to exceed 70% for the whole year, topping the global ranking. Multiple consultancy firms foresee a comeback of global sales growth and a continuance of NEV boom in 2021 as coronavirus eases. 2. China's auto market as a whole is expected to remain stable in 2021, 1 with a strong boost in NEV sales. In 2020, China spearheaded global NEV market growth with record sales of 1.367 million units. The Development Research Center of the State Council expects overall auto sales to grow slightly in 2021, which ranges 0-2%.

Businesses and governments all over the world are searching for technological innovations that reduce costs and increase usage of “environmentally friendly” vehicles. China became the largest car producer in 2009 and it is strongly investing in the manufacturing of electric vehicles. This paper examines the incentives provided by Chinese governments (national and local) and the strategies pursued by BYD, the largest Chinese EVs manufacturer. Specifically, our paper helps to show how government support in the form of subsidies combined with effective strategies implemented by BYD helps to explain why this emerging industry has expanded successfully in China. Our study is based on primary data, including interviews with company headquarters and Brazilian subsidiary managers, and secondary data. © 2016 Departamento de Administrac¸ão, Faculdade de Economia, Administrac¸ão e Contabilidade da Universidade de São Paulo - FEA/USP.

  • China Automotive Industry Study Report for the Swedish Energy Agency August 2019
    BUSINESS SWEDEN CHINA AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY STUDY REPORT FOR THE SWEDISH ENERGY AGENCY AUGUST 2019 www.eqtpartners.com An assignment from the Swedish Energy Agency Göran Stegrin, email [email protected] Disclaimer: This report reflects the view of the consultant (Business Sweden) and is not an official standpoint by the agency. BUSINESS SWEDEN | CHINA AUTOMOTIVE IND USTRY STUDY | 2 SUMMARY Economic slowdown and an ongoing trade war with the United States have impacted the Chinese automotive market. In 2018, new vehicle sales declined for the first time in 20 years. Sales totaled 28,08 million units, reflecting a -2.8% y/y. Electric vehicles remain a promising segment, as the government still provides substantial subsidies to manufacturers, while customers are offered incentives and favorable discounts for purchasing. In order to guide the industry, the Chinses government is gradually reducing subsidies. Stricter rules are also set to raise the subsidy threshold, which will force both OEMs and suppliers along the value chain to increasingly convert themselves into hi-tech companies with core competencies. The evolution is driven by solutions addressing the three main issues created by the last decade’s market boom: energy consumption, pollution and traffic congestion. The Chinese government has shifted its attention from total volume to engine mix and is progressively creating incentives to small and low emission vehicles, while supporting investment in new energy vehicles, mainly electric. In this direction, technologies surrounding new energy vehicles such as power cell materials, fuel cell and driving motor will receive strong support and offer more opportunities. In the light weight area, structure optimization is still the primary ways for OEMs the achieve the weight reduction goal.

  • BYD: China’S Electric Car Pioneer
    GaveKalDragonomics Special Report BYD: China’s electric car pioneer September 2009 in cooperation with GaveKal Dragonomics is pleased to present its subscribers with a detailed investigative report on one of China’s most interesting private companies, battery- and car-maker BYD. The firm is one of the world’s biggest manufacturers of cell phone batteries, and recently diversified into automobiles; its low-priced F3 sedan is China’s best-selling model this year. BYD leaped into the world’s headlines in 2008 when a Warren Buffet-controlled company paid US$232 million for a 10% stake. Media attention has focused on BYD’s stated aim of becoming a leader in electric car production. Close scrutiny suggests that Buffett’s real interest in the company has more to do with its potential to supply large-scale batteries for storage of electricity produced by renewable sources like wind farms. BYD thus stands at the intersection of two of the most crucial questions facing investors today: • Can China produce innovative and globally competitive private companies? • Will the global energy industry find a replacement for oil as a transportation fuel? This report was prepared exclusively for GaveKal Dragonomics subscribers by Fathom China, a Beijing-based consultancy specializing in detailed company background research. About Fathom China Fathom China Ltd. is an independent research company that conducts focused due-diligence investigations on firms and executives in China. Our team of researchers include highly trained former journalists, academics and consultants. Solving Chinese business puzzles is our specialty.

Policy imperatives and government support could ensure three-fold volume growth by 2020, which would make China half of this developing global market. New entrants are proliferating, with few clear winners as yet, but we conclude that Yutong and BYD have the scale of NEV sales today to support Buy ratings. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deutsche Bank AG/Hong Kong Deutsche Bank does and seeks to do business with companies covered in its research reports.

  • Powering the Electric Vehicle with a Dynamo Using Wind Energy
    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 19, 2020 POWERING THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE WITH A DYNAMO USING WIND ENERGY Mr. Kamalpreet Singh1, Dr. Harbinder Singh2, Dr. Harpal Singh3, Dr. Mohit Srivastava4 1Computer Science Engineering, Chandigarh Engineering College, Landran, Mohali, India. 2,3,4Electronics and Communication Engineering Department, Chandigarh Engineering College, Landran, Mohali, India. E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received: 14 March 2020 Revised and Accepted: 8 July 2020 ABSTRACT: The main objective of this paper is to represent a method for powering the electric car with a dynamo using wind energy. We want to solve the major disadvantage faced by an electric vehicle that is the discharge of the battery in case there is no power source. In case there is no power station nearby then electric vehicle can’t reach its desired destination. To solve this problem dynamo can be used. Dynamo is a device that converts mechanical energy into electric energy. Hence by using this property of a dynamo, this problem can be solved. The description of this technique is placing a dynamo behind the radiator and fan in front of the radiator. A hole is created at the centre of the radiator to connect the dynamo with the fan using a shaft. Due to locomotion of a car fan will rotate and current will be produced with the help of a dynamo. This technique has one more benefit that is efficiency of heat dissipation from the radiator will increase with the help of a fan.
