Description | As an important industry in China, logistics industry has made great contributions to the society with the rapid development of domestic economy, but the traditional logistics transportation mode has also brought problems such as energy shortage, air pollution and traffic congestion. The new energy light van designed and developed by Gree Altairnano New Energy INC. is not affected by road restrictions, underground garage height restrictions, and road and bridge width restrictions, etc., thus making the delivery of urban road goods more efficient, convenient and safe. The new energy heavy-duty semi-trailer tractor is suitable for container transportation from Zhuhai Gree to Zhuhai Xiyu and Hongwan Wharfs, and short-distance and high-frequency transportation in the factory area of Gree Headquarters. Gree Electric Appliances, Inc. of Zhuhai has purchased new energy vehicles for unified distribution, realizing the full chain coverage from independent manufacturing of new energy vehicles to operation and distribution, and helping the transportation industry to actively implement the “carbon peaking and carbon neutrality” goal. |
Key data | The new energy light van delivered about 45,000 orders and 200,000 sets in 2022; manufacturing time accounted for 10%, and 90% of the time was logistics process, thus reducing operating costs; the average energy consumption cost of new energy light van was about 0.3yuan/km, which was lower than that of fuel truck (calculated by 1.2yuan/km) by 0.9yuan/km. |
Stakeholders | Gree Altairnano New EnergyINC., Zhuhai Gree Transportation Co., Ltd. |
Status quo/Progress | The new energy trucks of Zhuhai Gree Transportation Co., Ltd. will distribute Gree electric appliances in a unified way, realizing the full chain coverage from independent manufacturing of new energy vehicles to operation and distribution. |
Innovation point | The energy consumption cost per unit mileage of new energy light van is relatively low. The longer the mileage, the lower the energy consumption cost and the shorter the single vehicle payback period. Zhuhai Gree Transportation Co., Ltd. Has purchased many types of new energy trucks, broke the conventional format, explored a new mode of green logistics operation and put it into use in combination with its own business status, realizing the new energy trend of door-to-door delivery in a city. |
