First, be a pioneer, make early plans, explore the way ahead and lead the trend

Hanma Technology is one of the earliest automakers in China to develop new energy heavy-duty trucks. According to Zhang Huan, deputy director of the Power Transmission R&D Center of Hanma Technology: In response to the national call for energy conservation and carbon reduction and to address the challenges faced by the automotive industry, Hanma Technology initiated a global research on the prospects of the new energy heavy-duty truck industry in 2012. In 2017, it took the lead in laying out the new energy field, was the first in the industry to obtain the production qualification for pure electric heavy-duty trucks, and completed the high-intensity military test experiments of electric heavy-duty trucks in the same year. In 2018, the Huali electric heavy-duty truck brand under Hanma Technology was officially launched in the market. In 2019, Hanma Technology, in response to the industry pain points of short vehicle range and slow charging, innovatively proposed a battery swapping operation model and was the first to introduce the "Integrated operation Model of charging and battery Swapping for Electric Heavy Trucks". In 2020, Geely Commercial Vehicles deeply empowered Hanma Technology, further promoting the company's development in the field of new energy heavy-duty trucks.

Today, Hanma Technology's Huali electric tractors, electric mixer trucks and electric dump trucks have been widely distributed across the country. They have been put into batch application in Beijing, Shanghai, Hebei, Henan, Guizhou, Hainan and other places, meeting users' demands in various scenarios such as steel mills, power plants, mines, ports, urban construction dump transportation and commercial concrete transportation, and have won users' recognition. It is worth mentioning that in 2021, Hanma Technology's "Integrated Operation Mode of Charging and Battery Swapping for Pure Electric heavy-duty Trucks" won the first (2021) China Commercial Vehicle Innovation Award - "Innovation Concept and Model Award", and achieved batch export of pure electric heavy-duty trucks in the same year, promoting the pure electric heavy-duty truck market to enter a period of rapid development.

Second, the advantages of new energy heavy-duty trucks are visible

Compared with traditional fuel heavy-duty trucks, what advantages do battery swap type pure electric heavy-duty trucks have? Briefly summarize the following four points: First, green and environmentally friendly. As it is driven by a motor, it does not produce exhaust gas and is nearly pollution-free. Taking 150 battery swap heavy-duty trucks and 3 fully automatic battery swap stations as examples, it is estimated that 22,700 tons of carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced annually. Second, reduce costs and increase efficiency. The operating cost of electric heavy-duty trucks is about one fifth of that of traditional fuel vehicles, and they have a high energy conversion efficiency, which can recover the energy during braking and going downhill, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of energy. In addition, the vehicle and battery can be sold separately, and the battery can be charged per kilowatt-hour based on the actual electricity consumption. In addition, battery swapping only takes 3 to 5 minutes, effectively solving the problems of slow charging and short battery life. Three. Safety and flexibility. Centralized monitoring, maintenance and management of the replaced power batteries have extended their lifespan and enhanced their safety. According to the working conditions, battery packs of different capacities can be flexibly replaced and customized. This not only reduces the self-weight but also lowers power consumption, thereby enhancing the effective utilization rate of battery assets. Fourth, intensification: The construction of centralized battery swap stations has a higher utilization rate of land resources. It is also possible to take advantage of the peak and off-peak preferential electricity price periods for charging, store the low-priced electricity, and use it for vehicle operations during the daytime high electricity price periods, further enhancing the efficiency of electricity usage and battery swapping.

As for the current market, the application scenarios of new energy battery swap heavy-duty trucks are mainly concentrated in steel mills, power plants, mines, ports, urban construction waste dump, commercial concrete transportation and other fields. These scenarios do not have overly high requirements for transportation distance, with the mileage being approximately within 200 kilometers. If traditional fuel vehicles are chosen, due to their high usage frequency, short transportation distance, and low speed, the fuel consumption is generally over 40 liters per 100 kilometers. Excessively high fuel consumption will significantly increase operating costs. Conversely, if pure electric heavy-duty trucks are chosen, the above-mentioned drawbacks can be completely avoided, and the benefit gap is very obvious. Taking 6x4 tractors and 8x4 dump trucks as examples, the application of pure electric heavy-duty trucks in the above scenarios can significantly reduce operating costs throughout the entire life cycle compared to fuel-powered heavy-duty trucks, which is conducive to long-term development.

Third, the emphasis is constantly increasing, and we continue to lead in new tracks

Under the influence of environmental protection advantages, reasonable economic benefits, as well as multiple favorable policies and the market, the "competition field" of new energy heavy-duty trucks was extremely popular in 2022, showing a high-speed growth trend. In the first half of 2022 alone, the total sales volume of new energy heavy-duty trucks exceeded 10,000 units. In this regard, Hanma Technology has been continuously increasing its emphasis on the new energy heavy-duty truck project, intensifying its investment, delving deeply into pure electric and hybrid heavy-duty truck technologies, and intensifying its efforts in developing clean energy vehicle businesses such as methanol-powered and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Facts have proved that in recent years, Hanma Technology's Huamei electric heavy-duty trucks have always been based on product strength and have been leading the domestic market. Its vehicle control system has accumulated profound experience in scene collaborative development. The mature and reliable three-electric technology + high-power motor +AMT transmission has made Huamei electric heavy-duty trucks mature, reliable and stable.

The heavy truck industry chain is greatly influenced by factors such as national infrastructure and logistics. In the transportation sector, the consumption of fuel energy is very high. The development of "battery swap heavy trucks and hydrogen fuel heavy trucks" has become a long-term development trend in the low-carbon transportation field. Against this backdrop, Hanma Technology has been continuously expanding its layout and market penetration in the field of new energy heavy-duty trucks. The fact that we ranked among the top three in the industry in terms of new energy heavy-duty truck sales from January to June this year, and won the championship of the monthly list of new energy tractors three times in January, February and June, is quite telling. In the future, Hanma Technology will continue to adhere to product performance innovation and operation model innovation, build an integrated operation ecosystem of "vehicles, electricity and stations", and at the same time, make significant investments in the research and development of other new energy heavy-duty trucks such as hybrid power and hydrogen fuel cells. Zhang Huan said so.
