Slogan of luxury car house

Last Saturday's Frankfurt Motor Show was a bit chaotic. Thousands of people marched around the exhibition hall, holding the slogan "Do you want to love carbon dioxide" to protest against the emission of carbon dioxide by the automobile industry.

Cars are obviously the target of this protest. In portraits of executives of companies such as Volkswagen, BMW, Daimler and Toyota, protesters use exhaust pipes to replace their sex organs. They asked the car companies to stop selling SUV models with high emissions. In 20 17, due to the rapid growth of SUV sales, the carbon dioxide emissions of new cars in Europe, which had been declining continuously in 10, rose against the trend, and the carbon dioxide emissions of the whole industry rose by 2g, reaching 120.4g/km.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has called for the establishment of a climate cabinet to reduce emissions from Germany's transportation and heating industries. "In the past 50 years, storms, high temperatures and floods in Germany have tripled," Merkel said in her weekly podcast on Saturday. "We must take action."

The EU's measures are more radical, simple and rude. In April this year, the European Parliament stipulated that by 2030, the emissions of new cars will be greatly reduced by 37.5%. This means that the automobile industry must reduce its emissions to an average of 60 g/km, otherwise it will reduce its emissions or impose a fine. It is estimated that if the industry is still at the level of 20 18 in 20021year, it will bear a fine of nearly 40 billion dollars.

And automakers are obviously very wronged. During the Frankfurt Motor Show, participating car companies gathered together to launch new energy vehicles to meet the emission requirements, the future development trend of new energy vehicles and consumers' demand for new energy vehicles.

Automobile companies feel that pots with poor new energy development should not be carried by themselves. Car companies believe that consumers can already choose new energy products that meet their own needs at dealers, but the European government's support for the new energy industry is insufficient, and supporting facilities and policies are indeed the problem.

Tavares, CEO of PSA Group, pointed out during the Frankfurt Motor Show that "it is not enough for dealers to have only electric vehicles". He called for the cooperation of the whole society, including a substantial increase in charging infrastructure and meaningful financial incentives.

Objective data may prove the point of view of car companies. On the one hand, the sales of new energy vehicles in Europe only account for 65,438+0.5%, half of which are plug-in hybrid vehicles, because PHEV vehicles can rely less on charging piles. On the other hand, in countries where charging pile facilities are generally lacking (the number of charging piles per kilometer is less than 1), the sales of new energy vehicles account for less than 1%.

Car companies predict that by 2030, Europe will need 2.3 million charging piles to meet the demand. But at present, there are less than 6.5438+0.45 million charging piles in the whole EU. Three quarters of them are located in four of the 28 EU countries-Germany, Britain, France and the Netherlands.

China government's support in the field of new energy industry is obviously stronger than that in Europe. The data shows that as of August 20 19, the total number of public and private charging piles in China was 108 million, up 67.8% year-on-year. Thanks to the substantial increase in the number of charging piles, the sales volume of pure electric vehicles in China accounts for 75%, which is three times that of plug-in hybrid vehicles.
