7月1日至3日，“2019世界新能源汽车大会（WNEVC）”在海南博鳌盛大召开。国家主席习近平致贺信，对大会的召开表示热烈祝贺。习近平主席指出，当前随着新一轮科技革命和产业变革孕育兴起，新能源汽车产业正进入加速发展的新阶段，不仅为各国经济增长注入强劲新动能，也有助于减少温室气体排放，应对气候变化挑战，改善全球生态环境。

    多位中央领导和海南省领导出席大会，100多家新能源企业以及1500多位国内外企业代表围绕“新时代，新变革，新产业”主题，分享新能源汽车成功经验，探索电动化、智能化、共享化发展趋势和路径。

   深圳巴士集团作为全球最大的新能源公交运营企业，受邀参加此次大会。集团副总经理马正源在主题峰会“中重型车零排放论坛”上分享电动化所面临的机遇与挑战。

    他指出，能源紧张和气候变化促使电动汽车规模化发展成为全球焦点，其中最大的挑战在于成本价格高昂、配套设施不足、电池衰减、资产处置困难等问题。

    电动化在面临挑战的同时，也迎来前所未有的发展机遇。电动汽车规模化推动企业在场站规划和车队管理逐步标准化、智能化，带来汽车配件、充维服务等上下游产业链发展。

    World New Energy Vehicles Congress (WNEVC) 2019 was held in Boao, Hainan Province from July 1 to 3. President Xi Jinping has sent a congratulatory letter to the WNEVC 2019. With a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation in the making and rising, the new energy vehicle industry is entering a new stage of accelerated development, which not only adds strong new drivers to the economic growth of various countries, but also helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, cope with climate change and improve global ecological environment, Xi noted in the letter.

    A number of central government leaders and leaders of Hainan Province attended the conference. More than 100 NEV enterprises and over 1,500 representatives shared successful stories, and explored trends and paths in electrification, intelligentisation, and on-demand service around the theme of “New Era·New Revolution·New Industry”.

    As the world's largest new energy public transport operator, Shenzhen Bus Group was invited to participate in the conference. Mr. Joe MA, Deputy General Manager of the Group, shared the challenges and opportunities of electrification at the theme summit of “Technical Challenges & Innovations for Achieving M&HDV Zero Emission”.

    He noted that energy shortage and climate change have made development of EVs as a focus. The biggest challenges are high costs, insufficient depot and charging facilities, technical issues such as stability of batteries and depreciation, etc.

    While facing challenges, electrification has also ushered in unprecedented opportunities. Electrification has promoted standardisation and intelligentisation of depot planning and fleet size management, creating value chain businesses such as auxiliary parts, charging provision and EV maintenance.
