The constant flow of motorcycles is a major geographical feature of Taiwan. Taiwan has 14.6 million motorcycles, accounting for 68% of road transport, and the world’s largest per capita possession. At the same time, the exhaust of motorcycles is also the first in Asia. In order to solve the problem of environmental pollution caused by motorcycles, Taiwan launched the electric motorcycle industry development plan in August 2009, and from this year began to implement an empirical plan for hydrogen-powered motorcycles. At present, Taiwan has taken motorcycles as a breakthrough in the development of hydrogen fuel cells based on actual conditions.
“Do not ignore the motorcycle market when developing fuel cells.†Zuo Junde, director of the Taiwan Economic Research Institute, held the 12th National Hydrogen Energy Conference and the 4th Conference on Hydrogen Energy in the Three Regions of the Taiwan Strait in Wuhan in mid-October. Indicated.
A number of Taiwanese experts participated in the seminar and introduced the development status of fuel cells in Taiwan. It is reported that after receiving government subsidies in 2009, Taiwan’s fuel cells ushered in a wave of development and are moving toward industrialization.
“The development of transportation vehicles can drive the development of fuel cells to the fastest market.†Zhang Xingzhi, an associate researcher at the Taiwan Economic Research Institute, told the Scientific Times reporter. However, he also pointed out that the development of Taiwan's fuel cells is still in its infancy and can rely on them. Subsidies developed rapidly but lacked long-term planning.
In fact, Taiwan has been developing fuel cells for more than 20 years. During this period, it continued to integrate and withdraw from the midstream and downstream. It was only in 2009 that a government subsidy program of 300 million Taiwan dollars was officially approved for the development of fuel cells.
On November 1, 2009, Taiwan officially entered the era of subsidies for fuel cells.
Since 2009, Taiwan has subsidized 190 power generation systems with a total power of 545 kilowatts. From the demonstration projects that have been in operation for one year now, the average operating efficiency is mostly 20% to 50%.
In particular, it is worth mentioning that under the government's 300 million Taiwan dollars subsidy, the company invested nearly 700 million Taiwan dollars in three years, and the two sides invested nearly 1 billion Taiwan dollars, of which government subsidies have led to more than twice the industrial investment.
According to Huang Shengyuan, director of the Fuel Cell Demonstration Operation and Promotion Office of the Institute of Industrial Technology of Taiwan, the subsidy program started in 2009 includes 12 aspects including communication, spare and vehicle systems. By 2010, it was applied more to the transportation sector, including ship power. At the same time, large-capacity batteries appeared. For example, the 2010 Taiwan Flower Expo 30 kW system provided all power supply to the Taipei Story Museum, and only the supporting hydrogen storage facilities cost NT$5 million. . By 2011, there will be more various applications, such as the fuel cell backup power supply for the highway electronic toll collection system.
"After the subsidy policy, the development of Taiwan's fuel cells will flourish and a hundred schools of thought will contend." Huang Shengyuan said.
Internationally, the US's Recovery and Investment Act (ARRA)'s subsidies for fuel cells are mainly aimed at the backup power supply and logistics industry in the telecommunications industry.
According to reports, Taiwan is currently mainly applied to these two parts. In particular, the fuel cell backup power supply in the remote room has also suffered multiple typhoons.
According to reports, in 2009, during the typhoon Fannai, Hsinchu District 1000 meters above sea level in the power room nearly 13 hours, during which completely rely on 5 kilowatts of fuel cells. In June 2011, when Typhoon Mire struck, power was interrupted for more than six hours and the fuel cell also worked successfully.
In addition, in order to ensure that the fishermen communicate with the shore when they work at sea, Taiwan will also apply fuel cells to the standby power supply of the engine room and base stations in the coastal areas.
According to Huang Shengyuan, Taiwan’s telecommunications industry has reached a consensus: If the government can fix subsidies for fuel cells, it is willing to use fuel cells instead of lead-acid batteries and diesel engines.
In the logistics industry, fuel cell applications include 5 kW high-pressure hydrogen fuel cell pallet trucks, 5 kW golf carts, and mobile 3-kilowatt coffee cars off-grid power supplies. What is more special is the power system of a freezer. Since Taiwan is located in convenience stores, the use of fuel cells to generate electricity for the chiller of a transport vehicle can greatly reduce noise and other pollution. However, the largest investment in transportation is fuel cell motorcycles. The fuel cell motorcycle subsidy project passed this year includes 80 vehicles.
At present, manufacturers from Germany and Japan have already negotiated with Taiwanese manufacturers to seek cooperation. After the “3·11†earthquake in Japan, Japan’s Nippon Oil Corporation is considering choosing South Korea or Taiwan as an overseas demonstration of domestic fuel cells and seeking solutions to reduce costs locally.
At the same time, Huang Shengyuan believes that Taiwan should also strengthen cooperation with mainland Chinese companies. In particular, the development of hydrogen energy depends on the preparation of infrastructure, hydrogen storage, and transportation infrastructure. This is Taiwan’s weakness and should increase cooperation.
After three years of government subsidies, some Taiwanese manufacturers began to expand overseas and achieved international certification. Huang Shengyuan said that the next step for the development of Taiwan's fuel cells is to face international certification of the global market and will strive to establish relevant legal norms and industrial standards.
