Xu Hengwu: Promoting Diesel Cars to Save One Daqing a Year

In the context of high oil prices, fuel economy has become a topic of common concern. While most people in the industry focused their solutions on new energy sources, Xu Hengwu, president of Asia's largest green diesel engine manufacturer, Euro-Ide Power Group, gave another route, green diesel technology. In an interview with the media, Xu Hengwu said: If diesel cars can be quickly promoted, then one year will be saved!

Many people who don't know much about diesel think that diesel cars may save fuel, but the effect is not obvious. How much oil can a diesel vehicle save? The data shows that a new generation of green diesel engines can save 30% of fuel compared to gasoline engines of the same displacement. Someone made a calculation on this, and the result was staggering. Even if the number of passenger cars in China is only 10 million per year, if the proportion of diesel cars can reach 30%, it will be possible to save two or more Daqing in 5 years, and if it reaches the penetration rate of diesel vehicles, it can reach 50%. At the level, one Daqing will be saved each year.

According to the calculation of 0.03 litres per kilometre per petrol sedan, if the average sedan travels 20,000 kilometers per year, it can save 600 liters per car per year. China has added 10 million cars/year, 50% of which are 5 million diesel cars, and it is scrapped every year for 10 years. The annual holding capacity is about 50 million. Each year, diesel vehicles can save 30 million tons of fuel, which is equivalent to 6000 tons of crude oil. About 10,000 tons, while China's largest oil field - Daqing Oilfield's crude oil production is about 50 million tons.

It is understood that in Europe, diesel cars have become a hot product in the automotive sales market. According to statistics, 50% of new passenger vehicles in the EU are diesel vehicles, and the penetration rate of diesel vehicles in Poland, Austria and other countries is close to 80%. In the domestic market, the development of diesel vehicles is very slow and far behind the international level. China's crude oil imports have already exceeded half, and it is imperative to step up to join the green army!

At present, domestic companies have already seen the broad prospects of the Chinese diesel engine market, of which the largest green diesel engine manufacturer in Asia, the Euro-Italian Power Group, was the first to act. The European-Italy clean-type passenger car diesel engine technology is sourced from the world-famous diesel engine manufacturer Italian VM, while Euro-Italian has established close cooperation with Bosch, Honeywell, Magna and other international component companies. The most advanced and most comprehensive technical cooperation platform in China. In addition, it has already had a capacity of 300,000 engines on the scale.

At the government level, diesel vehicles have also begun to be included in energy conservation and emission reduction considerations. In the previously announced “Energy Saving and Civil Engineering” incentive policy, diesel vehicles were encouraged by the country for the first time, for example. On different occasions, leading comrades such as Jia Qinglin and Li Changchun also fully affirmed the direction of diesel engines that European and Italian companies have upheld.

The quality and cheap green diesel engine has become the fuel-efficient way in the new era. Experts predict that with the changes in the concept of mass consumption and the implementation of encouraging policies, the diesel car market will enter the blowout phase. By then, one Daqing in the province will not be a dream.
