Following the joint approval by the Ministry of Finance and other five ministries and commissions in September that the Guangdong urban agglomeration was among the first batch of national fuel cell vehicle demonstration city agglomerations, Foshan, as the leading city of the Guangdong demonstration city agglomeration, has been actively involved in policy formulation, industrial chain construction, and application promotion. Actively making efforts, in addition to municipal sanitation, logistics and other road vehicles, it took the lead in formulating replacement subsidies for hydrogen forklifts to help release the potential market capacity of hydrogen fuel cells in the field of logistics and handling.
Foshan City is an important manufacturing and logistics center in the Pearl River Delta and even the country. It has huge demand for material handling and high-intensity operations are concentrated. It is suitable for many application scenarios of fuel cell forklifts, including vehicle factories, ceramics factories, furniture factories, etc. According to incomplete statistics, there are nearly 7,000 forklifts in Nanhai District alone. There is a huge market for hydrogen-powered forklifts to be replaced in the future. This time, Mona Lisa cooperated with Infineon to launch a prototype project of hydrogen forklifts in South China. The successful implementation of this demonstration project will play a very good role in demonstrating the use of hydrogen forklifts in logistics handling in various industries, and play a very good leading role in the development of the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle industry, which can radiate to logistics vehicles, sanitation vehicles, Application sectors such as tractors and heavy trucks. Taking hydrogen forklifts as an entry point, we will drive the development of the entire hydrogen fuel cell vehicle industry.
At the same time, the construction and ceramics industry has always been a large energy consumer, and accelerating energy structure adjustment is a crucial part of industrial transformation and upgrading. Relying on the advantages of the hydrogen energy industry in the South China Sea and the huge demand for daily logistics, warehousing and transportation in Mona Lisa's four major production bases, Mona Lisa adopts a step-by-step implementation strategy of first trialling it on a small scale and then popularizing it on a large scale, first operating in one field and then promoting it in multiple fields. , reached a small-volume-first cooperation model with Infineon, and gradually promoted the intelligent and low-carbon upgrade of hydrogen-powered forklifts in special transportation in the factory area, thereby exploring and forming optimal solutions for the adjustment of the energy structure of the entire industry.
Hydrogen energy forklifts have very outstanding advantages over traditional forklifts. It takes 3 minutes to charge and 5 hours of use, which has a great charging time and cost advantage over lithium batteries and achieves the same effect as refueling a diesel vehicle. In addition, hydrogen forklifts are clean, safe, efficient, have long lifespan, and can adapt to various high and low temperature environments. According to statistics from the Argonne National Laboratory in the United States, compared with diesel internal combustion engine forklifts, the use of coke oven gasThe greenhouse gas emissions of a hydrogen-powered forklift using hydrogen can be reduced by 50% during the operating cycle, while the corresponding greenhouse gas emissions of a hydrogen-powered forklift using renewable energy sources such as wind power and solar energy to produce hydrogen can be reduced by nearly 90%. For the same 1 kilowatt of work, a hydrogen forklift can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 1-1.2kg compared to a fuel forklift. 1,000 hydrogen forklifts, working 12 hours a day with a power of 7Kwh, can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 30,000 tons per year. With the release of the country's "14th Five-Year Plan" and the long-term goals for 2035, the future market prospects of hydrogen forklifts in Nanhai, Foshan and even the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area are broad.
