AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)01/03 Report--

In order to further implement and improve the promotion of domestic new energy vehicles, as well as expand the domestic new energy vehicle market competition. The Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the Development and Reform Commission recently issued a circular on further improving the financial subsidy policy for the promotion and application of new energy vehicles.

The circular pointed out that in order to strengthen the management of automobile investment projects and production access, strictly control the increment, optimize the stock, and strictly implement the normative requirements such as newly-built enterprises and expanded production capacity projects. We will clearly stipulate the subsidy standards for the purchase of new energy vehicles in 2021, the threshold requirements for product technical indicators, strengthening supervision and management, and promoting the improvement of industrial concentration, and clearly increase the withdrawal of zombie enterprises. we will encourage superior enterprises to merge and reorganize, become bigger and stronger, and resolutely curb such chaotic phenomena as blind investment and illegal construction of new energy vehicles.

Raise the threshold for subsidies for new energy vehicles and then retreat.

In terms of subsidies, this perfect notice will once again reverse the subsidy policy for new energy vehicles in 2021. The circular makes it clear that the subsidy standard for new energy vehicles in 2021 will decline by 20% on the basis of 2020; the subsidy standard for vehicles in areas such as public transport will decline by 10% on the basis of 2020, and local governments can continue to provide subsidies for the purchase of new energy buses.

Specifically, in the non-public domain subsidy policy, the battery life standard of pure electric models has been increased to the 400km standard, and the vehicle guidance price before the subsidy is less than 300000 yuan, and the standard has not changed. Among them, the state subsidy for NEDC battery life between 300 and 400km is 13000 yuan; the state subsidy for NEDC range above 400km is 18000 yuan; and for plug-in hybrid models (including incremental programs), the NEDC service life is greater than 50km, and the state subsidy is 6800 yuan.

For new energy passenger vehicles for operational use or non-personal use, the state will be able to subsidize 7000 yuan.

It is not difficult to see that this retreat is mainly due to the fact that the mileage of passenger cars that do not meet the standard will be reduced and the mileage of new energy vehicles will be further expanded. Among them, the impact of mixed models is greater, at present, many domestic joint venture models are using the "oil to electricity" mode, pure electric mileage is relatively low, which will also strengthen the car companies to upgrade the battery life of mixed models.

Speed up the withdrawal of zombie car companies and curb blind investment

It is precisely because a few years ago, the state vigorously achieved the support of new energy subsidies, so that many new energy car companies that do not focus on research and development continue to cheat compensation. In order to solve this mess, domestic new energy subsidies have been continuously improved, resulting in the elimination of many marginal new energy car companies, including many traditional car companies and new power car companies. With the strengthening of the policy, the withdrawal of zombie enterprises will be further strengthened in the future, and superior enterprises will be encouraged to merge and reorganize and become bigger and stronger.

Even so, more and more enterprises choose to cross the border into the automobile industry, because this part of enterprises with "huge capital" enter new energy vehicles, but do not see mass production of new cars, but buy land and build factories through large capital investment. In order to promote these car companies to develop new energy vehicles healthily and reasonably, a notice on the investigation of vehicle production and projects of new energy vehicles has been circulated on the Internet a few days ago. it is revealed in the document that, in order to strengthen investment supervision, all localities are required to provide information on the projects, construction progress and annual production of new pure electric vehicles (including passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles) approved or filed in the region since 2015. Provide the production and operation of existing automobile new energy vehicle investment projects and the record of new energy vehicle projects under construction in the region from 2019 to 2020; provide pure electric vehicle project planning and investment attraction in this area.

The circular also stressed that it is required to report in detail the local automobile and spare parts projects invested by Evergrande, Baoneng and other enterprises since 2017, including land occupation, construction content, project progress, completion of investment, and so on.

It is not difficult to see that now the implementation of the "notice", the formal control of the above-mentioned automobile enterprises, to promote the high-quality development of the new energy vehicle industry.

Strengthen supervision and management, not take the initiative to recall responsibility

When the market of new energy vehicles continues to expand, the quality problems of new energy vehicles are also frequent. Because the development of new energy vehicles is not as good as that of traditional car enterprises, the development history is relatively short, and the quality control and quality control is also relatively immature. In view of this, the new energy vehicle notice clearly implements the product quality responsibility of new energy vehicle manufacturing enterprises, and encourages enterprises to actively carry out defect investigation and active recall. If a major accident caused by a production enterprise's safety management system is not in place and is administratively punished by the competent department, if it knows that there are quality problems in the product and does not take the initiative to recall, cause a major accident, or is ordered by the competent department to recall, depending on the degree of suspension or cancellation of recommended vehicle catalogue, suspension or cancellation of financial subsidies and other measures.

In addition, with the continuous expansion of the number of new energy vehicles, safety risks are also gradually highlighted, in view of the frequent occurrence of spontaneous combustion accidents. The New deal promotes the establishment of an inter-departmental information sharing and supervision mechanism, strengthens the supervision of the whole process of the production, sales, operation and scrapping of new energy vehicles, and carries out joint inter-departmental investigations into fires and major safety accidents. We will further strengthen the audit of purchase subsidies and increase the proportion of on-site audits that focus on enterprises. We will implement and improve the policy on points trading for new energy passenger vehicles, speed up the study of the points trading system for new energy commercial vehicles, undertake the orderly withdrawal of purchase subsidies, and promote the market-oriented development of the new energy vehicle industry.

In recent years, driven by the wave of new energy vehicles and subsidies, many places began to attract investment in the manufacture of new energy vehicles, but due to the small demand for new energy vehicles and the market gradually returning to rationality, many new energy investment projects have been shut down. The launch of the new policy is also for the purpose of reasonable health norms to curb chaos such as blindly launching new energy vehicle manufacturing projects.
