Emulate Bhutan in electric transport, suggest experts

Shimla, March 23
Even as Himachal is in the process of acquiring environment friendly electric buses for plying on the Manali-Rohtang route, experts and environmentalists feel being an energy surplus state, there is an immense potential for complete switch over to electric transport like Bhutan.
“Having a large hydro-base with ample surplus power, Himachal, which has a topography like Bhutan, could consider switching over to electric transport,” said Amit Kumar, Senior Director (Social Transformation) at The Energy Resource Institute (TERI). He today spoke on “Clean Energy for Sustainable Future” at a seminar organized by State Council for Science, Technology and Environment in collaboration with TERI.
He said Bhutan, which experimented with four REVA electric vehicles for five years to assess their success in hilly terrain, has decided on a complete switch over to electric transport.
“Bhutan transport is totally clean energy based and they thought of switching over to electric transport. They were apprehensive about the success of REVA since their main towns of Thimpu and Paro are hilly like Shimla. However, the trial on the four vehicles, including one driven by the King of Bhutan himself, dispelled any apprehensions” he elaborated.
Incidentally, it is on the directions of the National Green Tribunal (NGT) that Himachal has placed an order for supply of electric buses to be plied on the Manali-Rohtang route to save the ecologically fragile area from environmental degradation.
The buses to be supplied by a Chinese company Gold Star will be supplied within the next three months.
Kumar stressed the need for harnessing the relatively cheaper clean energy sources like solar, wind, geo-thermal and biomass. He said a major electricity transition was taking place in India.
Inaugurating the seminar on “Energy: Sustaining a Green Future” Additional Chief Secretary Tarun Kapoor stressed the need for developing mechanism where all buildings being constructed are energy efficient.
He said considering harsh winters in Shimla and many parts of the state, having solar harvesting is essential and steps must be taken to make a beginning.

BYD going places
China's BYD to open electric bus assembly plant in France
By Du Xiaoying in London | chinadaily.com.cn
Updated: 2017-03-24 22:39
China's electric carmaker BYD Company Ltd announced on Thursday that it will invest 10 million euros in an electric bus assembly plant in the town of Allonne, near Beauvais, in Hauts-de-France.
According to BYD, the project calls for about 100 jobs to be created in the initial phase. The production facility will assemble up to 200 single-deck buses and coaches a year in its first phase. Other vehicles may be added afterwards when BYD expands its product line.
The buses are intended for the French market. BYD already has a deal with Scottish-based bus manufacturer Alexander Dennis, under which they supply electronic components and batteries, as well as chassis, and Alexander Dennis builds the coachwork and assembles the final product, which is aimed at the UK market.
The buses are already being used by Go Ahead on some of their London routes, and in October last year signed a deal with Arriva Northwest, which operates bus services in Liverpool.
Xavier Bertrand, president of the Hauts-de-France region, said: "BYD's decision to set up in Hauts-de-France is great news for employment - our region's top priority. A plant like this shows that we can attract major international corporations when we invest the resources to do so."
Bertrand said the region aims to be a leader in energy transition, therefore the production of electric buses fits in perfectly with the region.
Caroline Cayeux, senator and mayor of Beauvais and president of the Beauvais conurbation, said: "BYD's choice confirms the Beauvais region's appeal for business, and underscores our capacity to host cutting-edge industries."
"The result is the win-win partnership that we are launching officially today, and I'm delighted both for our region and for the people who live here," she added.
The production is scheduled to get underway in the first half of 2018. In addition to bus assembly, BYD plans to build an after-sales unit for maintenance and repairs, as well as a logistics center for spare parts. In future, the company could also add a test center for batteries.

BYD launches high voltage energy storage systems for residential and C&I in Europe
Published: 30 Mar 2017, 16:24
By Andy Colthorpe
BYD global sales director Julia Chen at the product's launch in Germany. Image: BYD.
China-headquartered BYD has launched the latest iteration of its B-Box battery energy storage systems, including a high voltage model, into the European market.
The renewable energy systems, battery and automotive maker, with financial backers including Warren Buffet, announced the launch of B-Box HV (high voltage) this week, designed for use in commercial and residential energy storage installations. This sits alongside the existing low voltage model which is suitable for residential use only.
According to BYD’s global sales director Julia Chen, B-Box can be configured for single or three-phase applications and can meet light or heavy load usage in on-grid and off-grid settings.
“The modular design of the solution enables private and corporate users to switch to a fully sustainable utility-independent energy solution with a small storage investment while having full scalability to adapt the storage volume to future developments such as integrating electrical vehicles," Chen added.
The company claims B-Box HV is a direct high voltage energy storage solution using serial connection of battery cells and says this is an industry-wide first. Existing solutions favour a low-voltage battery paired with a DC-DC converter. Using higher voltages, of the type used typically in PV systems and by the grid, means that theoretically conversion losses are minimised.
B-Box HV is available in 5.6kWh to 10.08kWh configurations and is scalable to 50kWh for commercial and industrial (C&I) users. BYD said it supports 1C and 2C discharging rates for peak power output with a usable capacity ratio of 96%.
BYD also produces the low voltage B-Box LV Professional 10.0, from 2.5kWh to 10kWh, scalable to 80kWh, while another model, the B-Box LV Professional 12.8 can reach a maximum 409kWh. B-Box is made with lithium iron phosphate batteries and the same control technology used in BYD’s EVs. The systems come with 10-year warranties.

This is very important for national (and over time, regional) renewable energy-related grid development, among others.
One shortcoming of renewable energy is the problem of cost-effective storage, especially in the case of a lack of transmission through grid. Storage systems are both a stage toward promoting grids and, also, an important component of it, because, in any case, storage systems might be needed in the cases in which supply and peak loads do not match.
Excellent news from BYD, this is one of the frontier tech considering that now in Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia, there is serious consideration for a regional grid.

- I have no idea about this product and its significance.
- As such, I don't usually give much weight to what the company says about its own products.
- Since you have tagged me, I will try to find about this product. Try to understand the basic physics behind it, how it compares with its competitors, how much of an innovation it is (if it is) etc.
- Why do you have to ask India again and again? Please decide if India is in China's league or not. If it is not, please stop asking such things again and again to boast.
Do you know a bit about energy storage solutions? Or are you just in for pointless boasting, based on an article that is largely a report, and involves no independent comparison, nothing apart from what the company says about its products?

Foxconn has taken an 1.19% stake for 1 billion yuan in CATL, the Mainland's largest(and I'd say the best
) lithium-ion battery maker, valuing the company at some 100 billion yuan.CATL plans an IPO on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange this year.
We are staring at a yuan 200 billion-plus battery behemoth.
鸿海抢占电动车电池市场 逾10亿元投资宁德时代
来源：工商时报 发布时间：2017-03-30 11:37
摘要：鸿海3月29日公告，旗下子公司富泰华以人民币逾10亿元，取得宁德时代新能源科技（CATL）股权约766.65万股，持股比约1.19％。
鸿海3月29日公告旗下子公司富泰华以人民币逾10亿元，取得宁德时代新能源科技(CATL)股权约766.65万股，持股比约1.19％。鸿海表示此为长期投资项目，业界解读，郭董砸逾44.7亿新台币(约合人民币10亿元)入股中国大陆电池大厂宁德时代，意在布局电动车电池市场。
近几年来鸿海集团积极于大陆市场布局电动车领域，除了两年前与和谐汽车及腾讯，签订「互联网＋智能电动车」的战略合作意向书，携手在河南郑州市展开联网智慧电动车的创新合作外，鸿海集团亦陆续增加对和谐汽车的持股，据了解，目前鸿海集团已是和谐汽车的第二大股东。
而宁德时代为宁德新能源科技(ATL)于2011年独立出的动力锂电池厂、专注于电动车电池开发制造，被喻为是大陆电池市场的后起之秀，2016年度的电池总产能就有年增近3倍的跳跃式增长、达7.5GWh，跃升全球第三大动力电池厂。
宁德时代先前喊出要在2020年将产能提升至50GWh的目标，并在去年第4季就砸下100亿元人民币，于江苏溧阳建置年产能达10GWh的锂电池厂，是宁德时代继福建宁德及青海西宁之外的第三个厂区。而目前美国最大电动汽车暨能源厂特斯拉在内华达州的超级电池厂年产能为35GWh，大陆新能源汽车大厂比亚迪则规画在2020年要达到34GWh的年产能。
自去年底开始，宁德时代即积极拓展业务及寻求合作资源，包括先是与东风汽车签订战略合作协定、共同打造在新能源汽车产业领域的合作平台外，今年初并宣布投资3,000万欧元参股芬兰维美德汽车、并取得其22％股权，正式进军欧洲市场；3月间才又与国能电动汽车瑞典公司(NEVS)签署合作意向书，双方将展开技术交流与研发的深入合作，并携手共建产业生态。

So, if your estimates are accurate, Foxconn within months will get back its investments 2 fold!
Wow, that is some investment!
Also, I do have some idea about CATL, and it is a big battery maker, not a strong battery maker. It lacks behind in technology.

President Xi said in 2014:
"We are one family, and no one can ever cut the veins that connect us. I am impressed by our compatriots in Taiwan for their worship of ancestors, their love for the homeland, and their honesty, frankness, diligence and hard work. The closeness between us is rooted in our blood, our history, our culture. We all believe that Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Straits are members of one Chinese nation, and we all inherit and pass on Chinese culture."
I think this must be enough to prove that the underlying ties are much stronger, albeit less visible, just like one's DNA, than conjectural conflicts or contradictions, which are often enough to fool the foreigners.

Also, in the interest of facts:
India does make its own lithium batteries:
http://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/new...ce-its-first-lithium-ion-battery-cecri-844142
The other thing:
Lithium ion battery is largely commodity business for basic batteries like the ones China makes. It is a question of capital expenditure, rather than technology.
The most high end technology is instead owned by Samsung/LG.
