Hangzhou to lift restrictions on NEVs
Print Edition
HANGZHOU, the host city of this year’s G20 summit will encourage the use of new energy vehicles by exempting them from the current traffic restrictions in place, local authorities said yesterday.
Ma Xiaohui, vice mayor of Hangzhou, said the current restrictions on the use of NEVs will be removed this year.
Hangzhou has about 1.2 million vehicles in its urban districts. The city introduced a series of measures to ease traffic congestions in recent years. License plates ending in certain numbers have been restricted during morning and evening rush hours on workdays since October 2011. Restrictions have also been placed on car purchases, but there have not been any restriction on the purchasing of the NEVs.
To boost the popularization of the NEVs, the city government will build more new energy vehicle charging facilities.
A total of 22,131 new energy vehicles are running on the city’s roads, ranking the third largest among Chinese cities, according to the city government.
Hangzhou plans to put another 7,500 NEVs into service this year. Meanwhile, all the city buses in service will be replaced by NEVs by the end of the year.
