1. General requirements

In accordance with the principles of demand traction, policy guidance, adaptation to local conditions, and linkage integration, we will actively innovate and pilot in improving the support system for the comprehensive electrification of vehicles in the public sector, promoting the promotion of new energy vehicles, infrastructure construction, the application of new technologies and new models, and improving policies, standards and regulations, explore and form a number of replicable and replicable experiences and models, and play a leading role in demonstrating the comprehensive market-oriented expansion of new energy vehicles and the construction of green and low-carbon transportation systems.

Second, the main objectives

(1) The level of vehicle electrification has been greatly improved. The proportion of new energy vehicles in the new and updated vehicles in the pilot areas has increased significantly, among which urban public transport, taxi, sanitation, postal express, and urban logistics and distribution fields strive to reach 80%.

(2) The charging and swapping service system has a strong guarantee. Build a moderately advanced, balanced layout, intelligent and efficient charging and swapping infrastructure system, significantly improve service guarantee capabilities, strive to reach 1:1 ratio between new public charging piles (standard piles) and the number of new energy vehicles (standard vehicles) in the public domain, and the proportion of charging facilities in highway service areas is expected to be no less than 10% of small parking spaces, forming a number of typical comprehensive energy service demonstration stations.

(3) Innovative application of new technologies and models. Establish and improve intelligent transportation systems, green energy supply systems, and new information and communication network systems that adapt to the innovative development of new energy vehicles, realize efficient interaction between new energy vehicles and power grids, and integrate development with transportation, communications and other fields. The application of new technologies such as intelligent and orderly charging, high-power charging, and fast battery replacement has been effectively expanded, and new technologies such as vehicle-network integration have been fully verified.

3. Key tasks

(1) Improve the level of vehicle electrification. Scientifically and reasonably formulate new energy vehicle promotion targets (see Annex 3 for reference quantity standards), carry out diversified scenario applications according to local conditions, encourage the promotion and application of new energy heavy goods vehicles in specific scenarios such as short-distance transportation, urban construction logistics and mining sites, accelerate the scrapping and replacement of old vehicles into new energy vehicles, and accelerate the full electrification of vehicles in the public sector. Support business model innovation such as power replacement, financial leasing, and "vehicle electricity separation".

(2) Promote the application of new technological innovation. Accelerate the application of new charging and replacement technologies such as intelligent and orderly charging, high-power charging, automatic charging, and rapid power replacement, and accelerate the pilot application of "optical storage, charging and discharging" integration. Explore the implementation path for new energy vehicles to participate in the electricity spot market, improve the green power trading mechanism for storage and release, increase the construction of smart travel and intelligent green logistics system, promote the application of new technologies such as intelligent network connection and vehicle-network integration, and accelerate the integrated development of new energy vehicles with energy, transportation and other fields.

(3) Improve the charging and swapping infrastructure. Optimize the layout of public charging network construction in central urban areas, and strengthen the construction of charging and swapping infrastructure along highways and suburban townships and the construction of intercity fast charging networks. Fully consider the charging needs of buses, taxis, logistics, postal express and other charging stations, and strengthen the construction of special charging and swapping stations such as parking lots. Promote the inclusion of charging and swapping facilities into the scope of municipal facilities, promote the interconnection of charging operation platforms, and encourage the opening of internal charging piles to the outside world. Encourage the use of existing sites and facilities to build a number of integrated energy service stations integrating charging, swapping, refueling, etc. Establish and form a power battery recycling and treatment system with a complete network, standardized and orderly, and efficient circulation.

(4) Improve policies and management systems. Improve the policy support system, encourage pilot cities to increase financial support, study and introduce support policies such as operation subsidies, right of way, electricity concessions, and low/zero carbon emission zones in accordance with local conditions, and explore the establishment of a policy system that adapts to the development of new technologies and new models. Establish and improve the safety operation monitoring system of new energy vehicles and infrastructure to improve the level of safe operation. Explore the formulation of relevant standards and technical specifications for comprehensive energy service stations and second-hand car circulation.

4. Organization and implementation

(1) Pilot declaration. Cities that are willing to participate in the pilot work shall prepare a pilot work plan (see Annex 1) for the pilot work, and recommend it to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Transport after review by relevant provincial departments. The deadline for the first batch of pilot centralized acceptance of application materials is March 31, 2023, and the acceptance of pilot application materials will continue to be normalized after that. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Transport, together with relevant departments, will study and determine the list of pilot cities in batches in accordance with the principle of "mature batch and start a batch".

(2) Organizing implementation. The relevant departments of all provinces and autonomous regions should strengthen the follow-up and effectiveness of the pilot work, promptly summarize and report the effective practices, advanced models and typical cases of the pilot work, and report them to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Transport before the end of March each year. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Transport will jointly set up an expert group with relevant departments to strengthen macro guidance and cross-departmental coordination of the pilot work, carefully study the matters that the pilot cities need support from the central level, promote the solution of major problems in the pilot process, and summarize and promote the advanced experience and typical practices of the pilot.

(3) Safeguard measures. Each pilot city should establish a mechanism for promoting pilot work, coordinate resources in an overall manner, and solidly advance pilot work in accordance with the work plan. Relevant departments of all provinces and autonomous regions should increase policy support for pilot cities to ensure that the pilot work achieves practical results. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Transport will work with relevant departments to announce the progress of the pilot work in a timely manner, study relevant policy support for pilot cities, give priority to recommending their key projects to be included in the scope of central infrastructure investment subsidies, and study the inclusion of carbon emission reductions generated by new energy vehicles in the public sector into the voluntary greenhouse gas emission reduction trading mechanism.

5. Work requirements

Relevant departments in each region should attach great importance to it, and in combination with local development plans and actual conditions, seriously organize cities with high enthusiasm for work and rich application scenarios (or distinctive characteristics) in their regions to make declarations to ensure that the pilot work achieves practical results.
