New Energy Bus and High-speed Rail Partner

The General Office of the State Council promulgated the Opinions on Supporting Railway Construction to Implement Comprehensive Land Development (referred to as “opinions”). The "Opinions" expressly states: "We will vigorously promote the seamless connection of various forms of transportation between railways and urban rail transit, public transportation, and taxis, promote the construction of an integrated transportation hub, facilitate passengers' travel and transfer," and "transport facilities will be seamless." The concept of "cohesion" has been elevated to the level of national guidance. After the "Opinions" were published, all parts of the country responded, especially to cities with high-speed rail stoppages, and the road traffic development in line with railway construction was placed at the forefront of the development of local three-dimensional traffic networks. In this “high-speed rail zero transfer” campaign, new energy buses have become an important factor.


The line of sight goes to southeast China. Since the beginning of this year, Quanzhou City, Fujian Province has invested 500 million yuan to promote the development of road transport. The connection of high-speed rail stations and related passengers along the route will also be further strengthened, and new routes will be opened for bus lines and passenger lines leading to urban areas and surrounding counties and cities. The application of new energy buses in these lines has become an important part of Quanzhou’s government’s investment of 500 million yuan. Quanzhou plans to add and update 50 buses, including 30 clean energy and new energy buses, and eventually form a high-speed railway station. As the core of urban and rural transport integration.

Let's look at Shandong Province, which is located in eastern China. As we all know, Shandong is a province with relatively high-speed rail lines. Therefore, for Shandong, the formation of high-speed rail traffic integration will become an important part of Shandong's overall traffic construction. Among them, Jinan City promptly opened bus lines, set up a temporary bus departure area, and invested hundreds of hybrid air-conditioned vehicles to facilitate passengers to transfer between Jinan Railway Station and important bus nodes and Yingshi Street; Dezhou City put dozens of new energy buses Cars, the opening of the train station to the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail station bus; In addition, including Taian, Zaozhuang, Jining and other cities are large-scale introduction of new energy bus and construction of BRT and other supporting facilities to improve the construction of high-speed rail road network.

In the vast central region of China, the classic combination of "high-speed rail new energy passenger car" is profoundly changing the people's traffic life. Recently, Changsha-Nanchang high-speed rail will be open to traffic, and Wuhan, Changsha, and Nanchang Central City will propose the concept of “two-hour life circle”. Based on these three provincial capitals, and in line with the construction of road traffic along the line, the BRT, long-distance passenger transport and other seamless bus convergence methods will be introduced, and priority will be given to the application of new energy buses in road construction to build green, environmentally-friendly, convenient, and fast Traffic Network.

In the western provinces of Sichuan, Xinjiang, and Guizhou, traffic networks that seamlessly link up with high-speed rail are all in full swing.

The "gold partner" connecting high-speed rail

High-speed rail and new energy buses are industries supported by the country's development. Once there was a saying that the rapid development of high-speed rail in China will affect the market occupancy of the bus industry. Judging from the current situation, this argument has some truth, but it is not comprehensive. Because China has a vast territory and a clear administrative hierarchy, high-speed rail changes the transport of passengers between central cities. However, road passenger transport still plays an irreplaceable role in the construction of traffic radiation networks between central cities and subordinate jurisdictions. It is also worth mentioning that while the development of high-speed rail has impacted the traditional bus industry, it has also further promoted the development of the new energy bus industry.
