The purpose of new energy vehicles is to be environmentally friendly. Under the current special energy structure in China, can new energy vehicles based on pure electric vehicles be truly environmentally friendly?
Centralized treatment of thermal power pollution, also for environmental protection purposes
According to the power structure and power generation growth of China's power industry in the second quarter of 2017, the proportion of hydropower generation has decreased, and the proportion of thermal power, nuclear power and wind power generation has increased. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, in the first half of 2017, hydropower generation accounted for 15.6% of total power generation, down 1.8 percentage points from the same period of the previous year; thermal power, nuclear power and wind power generation accounted for the total power generation respectively. The proportions were 75.1%, 3.9%, and 5.0%, which were 0.5, 0.4, and 0.5 percentage points higher than the same period of the previous year.
It is not difficult to see that China's current power is mainly from thermal power, accounting for 75.1%, while thermal power production is mainly based on coal fuel, then everyone can't help but ask, coal combustion is also not environmentally friendly, pure electric vehicles with coal power as the main driving force. Isn't it not environmentally friendly?
Indeed, under the coal-fired power structure in China, pure electric vehicles cannot be environmentally friendly in the true sense. However, coal-fired power can be concentrated in the power plants to produce harmful substances in the power plant. Traditional fuel cars can't do it. So to a certain extent, coal-electrically driven pure electric vehicles are environmentally friendly.
Rich in coal resources, reducing dependence on oil resources
As a country with large oil consumption, China is increasingly dependent on foreign countries, and the energy security situation is becoming more and more serious. The consumption of oil by traditional fuel vehicles accounts for a large part of this. China's coal reserves are the third largest in the world. The development of photovoltaic power generation, wind energy and nuclear power generation are all in the forefront of the world. After the popularization of new energy vehicles that consume electricity, the current energy security situation in China can be greatly alleviated. .
After the above analysis, even in the current situation that China's clean electric energy structure has not yet formed and the proportion of thermal power generation is still large, the method of supplying electric energy to new energy vehicles through environmental protection is concentrated through centralized treatment of thermal power pollution. China's coal resources are abundant, and other clean electricity generation technologies are at the world's leading level. The development of new energy vehicles has greatly helped to alleviate the current situation of China's high dependence on foreign petroleum resources.
