The "Digital Wisdom Green Traction for a Low-carbon Future" rail transit equipment transformation and upgrading - Series of New Energy Locomotives Releasing Conference was held in Beijing. CRRC released series of new energy locomotives for the first time in the world, and 7 representative models were unveiled. The series of locomotives have three power configurations of "Internal Combustion Engine + Power Battery", "Power Battery" and "Hydrogen Fuel Cell", covering a variety of powers from 1000 kW to 2000 kW, which can achieve low carbon or zero carbon emissions, low noise and high efficiency operation, and will effectively solve the problems of "High fuel consumption, high emission, loud noise and poor comfort" of old diesel locomotives.
Sun Yongcai, Secretary of the Party Committee and Board Chairman of CRRC Group, and members of his team and heads of relevant departments of CRRC headquarters went to the launch site of serialization of new energy locomotives to coordinate and command the promotion of activities. Sun Yongcai said that at the just-held National Science and Technology Conference, the National Science and Technology Awards Conference, and the Academician Conference of the two academies, the “Fuxing High-speed Train” won the National Science and Technology Progress Grand Prize. General Secretary Xi Jinping praised “high-speed rail technology has set an international benchmark.”CRRC must deeply remember the entrustment of the General Secretary and keep in mind its mission and responsibilities. The release of this serialized new energy locomotive is a concrete manifestation of China CRRC's implementation of the national “dual-carbon” strategy, adhering to the concept of green development, and promoting the sustainable, green and high-quality development of the global rail transit industry.
A member of the Party Leadership Group of the Ministry of Transport, Fei Dongbin, Secretary of the Party Group and Director of the National Railway Administration, Ma Yunshuang, General Manager (President) of CRRC, Xin Chenhua, second-level Inspector of the Equipment Industry Division I of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Cui Mingming, Deputy Director of the Atmospheric Environment Department of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, Mogamat Mahdi Basadien, Deputy Ambassador of South Africa to China, Cristian Nico, Minister of Argentina to China las Sokolowski attended the ceremony and delivered a speech. Lin Chunzeng, member of the Standing Committee of the CPC Committee and vice president of CRRC, released a series of new energy locomotives to the world under the theme of "Digital Intelligence, Green Future", introducing five major features of new energy locomotives from the aspects of green, intelligence, high-end, economic and safety.
Three new energy locomotives developed by CRRC Dalian Company were unveiled at the Centre position at the press conference. The new energy locomotives use "internal combustion engine + power battery", power battery and hydrogen fuel system, realizing the transformation of "traditional fossil energy" to hybrid and clean energy. The advanced nature of new energy locomotives is mainly reflected in the five aspects of "Green, Intelligent, Safe, Economic and Reliable".
The conference not only demonstrated the innovative strength and achievements of CRRC Dalian in the field of new energy locomotives, but also injected new vitality and hope into the green development of the global rail transit industry.
