AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/06 Report--

The Dutch Capital Council said last week that gasoline and diesel-fueled cars and motorcycles would be banned from Amsterdam in 2030 to clean up the city's air.

"pollution is often a silent killer and one of the biggest health hazards in Amsterdam," said Sharon Dijksma, the city's traffic commissioner.

Although bicycles are widely used by many Dutch, air pollution in the Netherlands is more serious than that stipulated in Europe, mainly due to traffic congestion in Amsterdam and Rotterdam.

The Dutch Ministry of Health has warned that current levels of nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter emissions can lead to respiratory diseases and that long-term exposure can shorten life expectancy by more than a year. Amsterdam says its goal is to replace all gasoline and diesel engines, such as electric and hydrogen-powered cars, with non-emission alternatives by the end of the next decade.

It will ban diesel vehicles built since 2005 next year and will gradually expand the range of banned vehicles. The city says it will use subsidies and parking permits to encourage people to switch to cleaner cars.

As a large agricultural country, the Netherlands is very convenient in the layout of charging stations or hydrogenation devices for new energy models, with a land area of 41528 square kilometers and a population of only 17.26 million. And its power generation mainly comes from wind power and nuclear power output from neighboring countries, and the cost of power generation is relatively low. It is more suitable to promote the use of West Energy models.

The Netherlands agrees with the new energy models from the country to the society. as a big agricultural country, they pay attention to environmental protection and the ideas advocated by the new energy models are very consistent, although the new energy models at this stage are not satisfactory in all aspects of battery life. But banning the sale of fuel models in the Netherlands in 2030 is a matter of board nailing. The lower house of the Dutch parliament and the cabinet have correspondingly put the matter into legal process, but it is hard to say whether it will be realized at that time. But both policy and public opinion support new energy models, but the transformation will always bring pain. For example, popularizing the construction of charging stations, such as promoting the proportion of national cars in terms of taxation, can effectively promote the popularization of new energy models. However, it will take time to verify how much resistance there is and whether consumers can fully adapt to the change between the two cars.

When it comes to the national power to promote the development of new energy vehicles, China is also an applicable case. Whether it is to promote the continued development of the domestic automobile industry, or from the arrangement of China's ecological / living environment, new energy vehicles do have practical significance. The author believes that the national policy on new energy has the significance of existence in many aspects.

However, considering the source of electric energy of new energy vehicles and the relationship between the change of vehicle positioning and the current automobile industry, China can not completely follow the example of the Netherlands in the use of new energy vehicles and the transformation of traditional automobile industry. In view of the domestic situation, we should be based on the gradual promotion in the current environment, and face the research and development of new energy technologies in many ways, while meeting the transformation of technology to civilian use, what's more, we should stand at the forefront of key technologies in order to ensure the healthy development of China's automobile industry.
