Low-carbon development and green transformation in China's construction machinery field have attracted much attention. Many recommendations and proposals for the National Two Sessions in 2024 involve the green development of the industry.

Shan Zenghai, deputy to the National People's Congress, chief engineer and vice president of XCMG Machinery, said that among the three suggestions he brought this year, the first is to support the use of new energy sources in construction machinery and commercial vehicles to help achieve the country's "double carbon" goal.

  Shan Zenghai said that construction machinery and commercial vehicles, as important components of my country's physical manufacturing industry, are the lifeblood of the country's economy.

Promoting the use of new energy sources for construction machinery and commercial vehicles is not only a need to solve national energy security and promote the realization of the "double carbon" goal, but also an inevitable choice to improve the core competitiveness of my country's construction machinery and commercial vehicles.

  "I recommend increasing policy support for the R&D and industrialization of key core technologies, components and parts for new energy construction machinery and commercial vehicles, as well as the construction of relevant standards and new energy infrastructure, to promote the new energy use of national construction machinery and commercial vehicles." Shan Zenghai said that as a representative from the manufacturing industry and a "veteran" in the research and development front, he deeply understands that technological innovation means abandoning illusions and finding his own path to self-improvement.

He will lead the team to make full use of the advantages of construction machinery manufacturing, vigorously develop key core components and large-scale applications of new energy "three electricity", and promote the development of high-end, intelligent and green manufacturing.

  It is reported that XCMG’s new energy business has shown rapid development in recent years. The New Energy Institute was established in August 2019, and the Shanghai Hydrogen Energy Technology Research Institute was established in April 2022. It has completed controlling the motor company and the electronic control company. With the help of the advantages of the controlling shareholder, it has completed Regarding the battery layout, each main engine factory has a corresponding product research and development team responsible for the development of electric engineering machinery main engines.

In the first three quarters of 2023, XCMG's new energy product revenue increased by 137.32% year-on-year, accounting for more than 9% of the company's revenue.

  In addition to the suggestions on new energy sources for construction machinery and commercial vehicles, Shan Zenghai also has two suggestions based on his understanding, research and analysis of the development trends of the construction machinery industry and technology.

  One is to speed up the implementation of policies for updating construction machinery and equipment.

Shan Zenghai believes that the construction machinery industry chain is long and involves many upstream and downstream companies. Promoting the update of construction machinery equipment can drive the development of related industry chains, such as machinery manufacturing, electronic components, software development and other industries, and then promote the entire national economy. development of.

  "It is recommended to accelerate policy guidance and support for the renewal of construction machinery and equipment, encourage the new energy transformation of traditional fuel-fired old construction machinery, continue to optimize the market environment, and promote the coordinated development of the industrial chain." Shan Zenghai said that the renewal of construction machinery and equipment will help speed up non- Road mobile machinery has switched from "National III" to "National IV" to enhance industrial competitiveness, the international influence of Chinese enterprises and the industrial chain support capabilities.

  The other is to establish and improve the emergency rescue equipment standard system, support the establishment of a national emergency rescue equipment technology innovation center, establish an emergency rescue equipment standards technical committee, accelerate the development and application of emergency rescue equipment, and support scientific research institutes and industry leaders in related fields. Jointly build a national-level emergency rescue equipment innovation center to standardize and guide industry development.

  It is reported that during the National Two Sessions, XCMG once again refreshed the record of "the world's largest crane" and successfully delivered the world's largest 4,000-ton wheeled crane to customers.
