Hundreds of thousands of motorbike taxi drivers in Rwanda will be able to change petrol motorbikes into electric cars Bloomberg reported that the Rwandan government has partnered with a local company, Rwandan Electric Mobility, to deploy electric scooters in the country’s capital, Kigali. Rwanda has a population of more than 12.6 million people living in an area of ​​26,338 square kilometers, and is the most densely populated country in Africa. The motorbike taxi industry, motorbike taxi service, or delivery is a popular method of transportation and delivery in this country, thanks to its affordable prices and access to all corners of the country. Therefore, the initiative to convert gasoline-powered motorbikes that are nearing the end of their service life to electric ones, will help about 100,000 current motorbike owners to have new and zero-emission vehicles. This move not only reduces the overall carbon footprint but also effectively extends the life of these vehicles. It also greatly reduces maintenance costs, car owners don’t need to worry about oil changes and refueling their vehicles. To launch the project, the Rwanda Environmental Management Agency (REMA) signed a contract with Rwandan Electric Mobility, and technical and financial support from the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) was also secured to promote the project. project progress. The trial phase, which is expected to last for 6 months, will convert about 30,000 motorbike taxis currently using gasoline engines to electric motorbikes.

The tweet that the Tesla CEO released Sunday was part of an exchange with twitter users that omitted to refer to a CoinTelegraph article accusing him of “bitcoin manipulation.” Musk said that the company kept $1.5 billion of its initial investment in bitcoin, but sold about 10% to “confirm it’s easy to pay off.” [bằng bitcoin] without distorting the market”. Elon Musk has become a prominent and influential figure in the crypto world. He tweeted in May that Tesla would no longer accept bitcoin as a means of payment for its vehicles, citing the large amount of carbon emissions in bitcoin mining. esla will continue to allow transactions in bitcoin at the car manufacturer’s stores, once it is confirmed that the “mining” energy source is clean energy. Photo: Getty. This action is believed to be the cause of the sell-off of the world’s No. 1 cryptocurrency. Musk’s comments on the sustainability of bitcoin “mining” continue to resonate in the crypto community. A commonly cited metric from the University of Cambridge pegged the annual electricity consumption of bitcoin mining at around 99 terawatt-hours. This consumption is more than that of the Philippines or Pakistan. Some of Musk’s recent tweets have also sparked a mix of excitement, confusion, apprehension, and sometimes even fear in the crypto community. Earlier this month, investors attempted to analyze a mysterious tweet from SpaceX that included a bitcoin symbol and a broken heart emoji. The information that Elon Musk transmits has had a great influence on the price of dogecoin and bitcoin. Musk is also partly blamed for the current drop in bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency complex. The Wall Street Journal has described him as the biggest influence on bitcoin. By the end of June 13, the bitcoin price was up nearly 8%, changing hands at $38,808.09 on CoinDesk. As of now, Bitcoin is up over 28% for the year but is down about 40% from its mid-April peak at $64,829.14. The world’s No. 2 cryptocurrency, Ethereum, gained nearly 5%, changing hands at $2,521.81. Back in February, Tesla revealed that it had acquired about $1.5 billion in bitcoin in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. At the time, Tesla paid about $38,000/bitcoin for each bitcoin. This is the average price at the time of Tesla’s Q4 conference on January 27. This conference did not mention any bitcoin holdings and the date of filing with the SEC. Overall, the prices of digital assets like bitcoin are outperforming traditional markets.

Billionaire Elon Musk speaks at an event. Photo: AFP/VNA Tesla Inc CEO, billionaire Elon Musk, on June 13 posted on his personal Twitter page that the electric vehicle maker will accept bitcoin transactions when miners use a lot of energy. more renewable in the operation of “mining” this digital currency. The post of the head of Tesla states: “Once there is confirmation of a reasonable (about 50%) use of clean energy by miners with an upward trend in the future, Tesla will continue to allow bitcoin transactions”. Bitcoin jumped 5.1% to 37,360.63 USD/bitcoin on June 13 following the post of billionaire Elon Musk. The above post comes after the scientific journal Nature recently published a study that found China’s bitcoin “mines” pose a threat to the country’s climate goals. These mines account for nearly 80% of the world’s cryptocurrency transactions and partly use the energy of coal-fired power plants. Billionaire Tesla expressed his belief that digital currency has a promising future, but it cannot come at a hefty price for the environment. In addition, Mr. Musk also reacted to the article raising the possibility that billionaire Elon Musk regularly affects the value of bitcoin in one direction or another for his business benefit. The Tesla chief said that the company sold about 10% of its bitcoin holdings to confirm that the digital currency has easy liquidity without volatility to the market. Earlier in February 2021, Tesla revealed that it had purchased $1.5 billion in bitcoin and would accept it as a form of payment for cars. But in May, billionaire Musk reversed the decision, citing long-standing environmental concerns around mining this coin. Bitcoin dropped more than 10% in value shortly thereafter.

On June 13, Tesla CEO tweeted that he will accept Bitcoin electric vehicle payments again. However, this only happens when Bitcoin miners can prove that about 50% of the energy they use is clean energy. According to Reuters, Bitcoin price increased 5% to 37,360.63 USD at 1:10 am on June 14 (Vietnam time) after Mr. Musk’s tweet. Musk also said that Tesla will sell about 10% of its Bitcoin holdings to show that Bitcoin can be easily liquidated. During the first quarter of the year, Tesla sold about $272 million in “virtual assets,” which reduced its operating loss by $101 million. Tesla CEO comments about cryptocurrencies often cause price fluctuations. As a result, he was criticized by CEO Magda Wierzycka of asset management company Sygnia as a “market manipulator” and that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) should investigate. In February, Tesla revealed in an SEC filing that it had purchased $1.5 billion in Bitcoin and would accept Bitcoin as payment for its products. However, then the electric car company paused due to concerns about the method of mining virtual currency, which requires huge electricity consumption, affecting climate change. “We are concerned about the rapidly increasing use of fossil fuels to mine and trade Bitcoin, especially coal, which is the worst emitter,” Musk tweeted in May.

VinFast electric bus during test run Not only buses, coaches should also be encouraged to use trams Air pollution and fine dust threaten people’s quality of life. Every year, Vietnam has to pay a large amount of money, about 8-10 billion USD to import gasoline. Part of this is spent on operating traditional fossil fuel-powered vehicles. In addition to the proposed inner-city electric buses for application in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. In Ho Chi Minh City, it is thought that the government should consider the early policy of putting electric-powered intercity passenger cars into operation in order to both exploit the superiority of electric vehicle technology, while protecting the environment and bringing a a new look for public passenger transport in the new era. The world’s two major problems, which are environmental pollution due to emissions and energy security due to the finiteness of fossil energy sources (coal, oil, gas) have gradually become urgent. Air pollution, fine dust in Vietnam has become serious with big cities like Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, etc. Ho Chi Minh. Here, it is recorded that there are maximum number of days in a year with the most dramatic air quality index – the most polluted air in the world. In the past two years, authorities at all levels have met to discuss and direct long-term radical solutions to further strengthen the control of air pollution, including the control of carbon emissions and fine dust from the air. means of transport. And fossil energy sources are not available in all countries. Vietnam is one of the importing countries, still heavily dependent on the world’s oil (although it is also partly domestic), it is estimated that it still has to import about 8-10 billion USD per year. With zero emissions and using electricity instead of petrol, electric vehicles are said to be a breakthrough solution for Vietnam in the context of the need to strengthen air pollution control, ensure energy security and suitability. with the development trend of the world’s means of transport. Simple structure of electric vehicles compared to vehicles using internal combustion engines “Electric vehicle” (EV) is often understood as a vehicle with an electric motor drive system. From the outside, an electric car looks like a car with an internal combustion engine (petroleum car). However, except for some parts and components for sharing, about 70% of the components of the two vehicles are different. The significant difference between electric vehicles and vehicles using internal combustion engines is the number of moving parts. Electric vehicles have only one moving part, which is the electric motor (motor), while cars using internal combustion engines have tens of thousands of different parts. Important components of electric vehicles include: battery, electric motor control system, regenerative braking system and powertrain. The number of spare parts for moving parts is less than in electric cars, which leads to another important difference, which is that electric cars require less maintenance (more economical to operate) and safer. safer, in addition to the advantages of environmental protection, civilized and modern technology. Why electric cars are becoming more and more popular At the United Nations Climate Change Conference 2015 (COP 21) held in Paris (France), the participants reaffirmed their efforts to strengthen the response to climate change. The Paris Agreement announced in December 2015 has set a target to limit global temperature rise to below 2 degrees Celsius. This goal can only be achieved when the energy and other sectors significantly reduce emissions. greenhouse gas emissions. The transport sector accounts for about a quarter of emissions from energy-related industries. The goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions to contribute to achieving the goal of reducing global warming below 02 degrees Celsius can only be achieved with a strong commitment of the transport sector. The Sustainable Development Report of the International Energy Agency (IEA) has shown that, to achieve this goal, by 2050, the world’s transport sector must contribute at least one-fifth of total greenhouse gas emissions. cuts from energy use activities. Electric cars are identified as a key factor contributing to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector, increasing energy efficiency, reducing greenhouse gas emissions in general, encouraging the development of new energy sources and recycled energy. In the context of rapid urbanization, the development of electric cars also contributes to reducing air pollution and noise pollution in big cities. The main obstacles to the development of electric cars are the initial cost of the car and the time available between two charges of the battery. However, the recent rapid development of science and technology has shown positive signs. According to a recent report by the US electric car company Proterra, a single charge for the bus can be up and running for 650 km and the price is becoming more and more relevant to the market to ensure more competitive exploitation than traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. Level of use of electric vehicles in countries around the world To date, China is the leading country in production, domestic consumption and export, with the famous electric car manufacturer BYD. In China, according to the data at the end of 2018, the total number of electric buses put into operation is over 421,000 units, Shenzhen city uses 100% of electric vehicles in public passenger transport, while Beijing and Shanghai , the utilization rate of electric buses has reached over 80%. Electric buses are increasingly popular in provinces and cities in China. Europe ranks 2nd among countries using electric vehicles with 2,250 units, the number of electric vehicles used will increase as some European countries such as the Netherlands set a target to convert and use 100% electric vehicles. (including buses, coaches plus and private cars) by 2024. The United States is also the country that is starting to shift towards using more electric vehicles. Although there are only over 300 electric buses in the United States, the number of electric buses is increasing in the near future, with the city of Los Ageles having just decided to buy 155 electric buses to serve all passenger transport activities. in this city. With the new energy policy (Green New Deal), led by many famous electric vehicle manufacturers such as Telsla, Proterra and even Apple recently announced the new Apple car electric car model, there is sure to be a boom in usage. electric vehicles in the United States under the new administration are clearly visible. For electric vehicles, environmental protection is always a top priority Why use an electric car? As mentioned above, electric vehicles are vehicles without chimneys, do not emit CO2, greenhouse gases into the environment. Therefore, the exploitation of electric vehicles in passenger transport is completely environmentally friendly, which is not controversial. Many researchers, policy makers still argue. The first is the traceable environmental issue of electric vehicles, that is, the source of electricity that electric vehicles use is clean electricity, that is, electricity using renewable energy such as solar power, wind power … or electricity from heat. Obviously, over the past time, the Government has called on businesses to invest in the production of solar power, rooftop voltage and wind power…, this electricity has been purchased by the state and connected to the national grid. Only the current supply has not met the demand and more clean electricity is needed to connect to the network. The second is the problem that the production of batteries for electric vehicles is still energy-intensive and emits a significant amount of CO2. As stated, today’s technology is evolving like crazy. As the demand for electric vehicles and batteries increases, mass production of large capacity batteries will result in better environmental control and lower loss and emissions. Here, it is a matter of deciding for the electric vehicle industry to have a direction in which to invest, cooperate and develop. When domestic manufacturers have been proactive in technology, it is possible to produce and recycle used batteries, thereby closing the production and exploitation process effectively and ensuring the problem. environment. What are the implications for passenger transport in Vietnam in the new period? Facing the environmental context, the challenge of air pollution as well as ensuring national energy security, Vietnam should consider the development of electric cars as a breakthrough policy for technology development, domestic auto industry. The introduction of electric vehicles into transport operation has really been a push to change for the progress to serve the travel needs of people and socio-economic development in the new period. The use of electric vehicles for public passenger transport is not only in the inner city as the project of electric buses in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Ho Chi Minh City as the media recently mentioned, but also hereby recommended that the State should have a policy to encourage the development of electric vehicles for inter-provincial passenger transport (both for fixed and non-fixed routes). To do this, the state has policies to socialize and encourage transport business owners to use electric vehicles in transport business activities; encourage businesses to invest in charging station infrastructure at rest stops, bus stations and other concentrated stops for re-energized vehicles to serve well for transport activities. In short, the policy to encourage the use of electric vehicles is a right one, in terms of both environmental protection as well as energy security. In addition to electric buses as currently proposed to be applied in the inner city of Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City. Ho Chi Minh City is also considering the application of intercity buses running on electricity. With a national electric passenger transport network being formed, improving user experience, increasing the quality of transport services, electric cars will have a good future in Vietnam, gradually replacing the traditional means of transport. fossil fuel-powered transportation.

VinFast is building electric car charging stations The Ministry of Finance has just sent a document to the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment and the Ministry of Transport, to respond to tax incentives for battery electric cars. Proposals for tax incentives only mention battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Currently, according to statistics, battery electric vehicles account for about 1% of electrified vehicles in Vietnam. Electric vehicles include many types of vehicles. In addition to gasoline-powered vehicles combined with electric energy (including HEV, PHEV) and Hydrogen-fueled cars (FCEV), there are currently BEV (pure electric) battery electric cars. Completely electrically charged from an external source. The two types of hybrid vehicles move mainly with internal combustion engines, in parallel taking advantage of the benefits of an electric powertrain consisting of an electric motor with a battery. FCEVs have an advantage over BEVs when the charging time is short, but the production of water makes hydrogen fuel-powered electric vehicles only suitable for island nations, arid areas, and unsuitable for urban areas. big. Meanwhile, BEV battery electric vehicles have a minimalist structure, run short distances, can consume electricity everywhere, have great advantages in urban areas. With three types of vehicles HEV, PHEV and FCEV all use gasoline and gas, so they have more impact on the environment than BEV models. Electric cars are becoming an advantageous choice to replace vehicles using internal combustion engines, especially battery electric cars (BEVs). Many countries around the world have had preferential policies and tax support to prioritize the development and production of battery electric vehicles. According to the Ministry of Finance, Vietnam has a number of preferential policies for electric vehicles. Accordingly, electric cars carrying passengers with less than 9 seats are entitled to the special consumption tax rate of 15% (ie 10% reduction compared to cars of the same type using fossil fuels; 10-16 seats are allowed to be used for cars of the same type using fossil fuels. tax rate of 10% (5% reduction compared to cars of the same type running on gasoline) and the tax rate of 16 to less than 24 seats is applied at the tax rate of 5% (5% reduction compared to cars of the same type running on petrol). At the same time, the Law on Special Consumption Tax No. 27/2008/QH12 also stipulates the special consumption tax rate for environmentally friendly vehicles. Specifically, vehicles running on gasoline combined with electric energy and bioenergy, in which the proportion of gasoline used does not exceed 70% of the energy used by the vehicle, is entitled to a tax rate of 70% for vehicles of the same capacity. species. For cars running on bio-energy, the special consumption tax rate is only 50% compared to cars of the same type. Meanwhile, about the current registration fee, there are only preferential rates for buses using clean energy while there is no policy applicable to other environmentally friendly vehicles. To encourage production and stimulate consumers to use BEVs, contributing to reducing the emissions released into the environment by vehicles, contributing to the protection of the ecological environment and based on the outstanding advantages of vehicles. BEV, the Ministry of Finance is planning to propose new incentives for this model. An electric vehicle charging station in Ho Chi Minh City Specifically, incentives related to excise tax fall under the jurisdiction of the National Assembly. Therefore, the National Assembly must amend the excise tax law. The Government has also assigned the Ministry of Finance to preside over the overall assessment of the implementation of the excise tax policy on automobiles in the past time to study and amend the excise tax law accordingly. Regarding the registration fee under the authority of the Government, when there is a need to change, it will amend and supplement Decree No. 14/20216/ND-CP on registration fee. The Ministry of Finance said that in the past time, it has also received recommendations from a number of associations on adjusting registration fee rates to remove difficulties for businesses. Therefore, the Ministry of Finance is also evaluating the overall policy on registration fees and is expected to submit it to the Government in October. The Ministry of Finance also asked agencies to propose specific content on special consumption tax incentives and registration fees related to battery electric vehicles to summarize and report to the Government. Battery-powered electric vehicles currently account for a very small percentage in Vietnam. According to data from the Vietnam Automobile Manufacturers Association (VAMA), the number of electrified vehicles registered in Vietnam is still very modest, accumulating just over 1,000 units by the end of 2020. of which BEVs only account for about 1%, the rest are HEV and PHEV models. According to the Ministry of Finance, currently only VinFast invests in producing electric vehicles, according to reports, VinFast has now launched the first battery-powered electric car model. The factory has a capacity of 250,000 vehicles per year and the brand is focusing on battery electric vehicles with 9 seats or less and electric buses with 24 seats or more. Also according to the Ministry of Finance’s assessment, the biggest obstacle facing Vietnam today is the lack of charging station infrastructure, the main source of power for power supply is using fuel sources with high CO2 emissions, accounting for nearly half of the total mobilized electricity output, while the electricity generated from renewable energy accounts for a small proportion, about 4.3% and this is considered an unstable power source.

Apple hires former BMW CEO for electric car project. The iPhone maker’s car-making efforts, known as Project Titan, have progressed unsatisfactorily since 2014. At this point, Apple began designing its own vehicles for the first time. In December 2020, Reuters reports that Apple is working on self-driving car technology and aims to produce a passenger vehicle, including breakthrough PIN technology, by 2024. Previously, in 2018, the tech giant Apple hired former Tesla design chief Andrew Kim, sparking speculation that Apple was once again trying to develop its own car. The timing of Apple’s hire of Andrew Kim seems to coincide with Doug Field’s return to Apple as well. Looking at the profile of Andrew Kim, this designer has contributed to Tesla’s hit models Model 3, Model S, Model X, Model Y as well as Roadster V2 and Semi. Before taking on a major role at Tesla, Kim spent three and a half years at Microsoft, where he developed user interfaces and Windows 10 products such as HoloLens and Xbox One S.

At a meeting with leaders of the Government, ministries and sectors in mid-May, Vingroup applied for a pilot exemption of excise tax and registration fee for electric cars for 5 years in order to promote the electric vehicle market. . In fact, this is the first proposal in Vietnam but not new in the world. Many countries have also applied a combination of supportive policies, strong incentives for consumers and manufacturers to encourage the model transition from gasoline to electricity, typically China, the US and other countries. Europe. According to the Wall Street Journal, Mr. Hallgeir Langeland, 65, a former Norwegian politician and environmental activist, has not owned a car in 25 years. But when Ford launched an all-electric version of the Mustang last year, he didn’t hesitate. “I have to have it. I can’t wait until March,” Mr. Langeland said, recalling the Mustang he drove as a young man. Christian Burg, owner of an energy-efficient housing construction business in Germany, has been driving a petrol BMW X3 SUV for many years. When the German government increased subsidies for electric cars, he applied for a small business subsidy and switched to the iX3 rechargeable hybrid. “We received an incentive of 3,750 euros ($4,500),” he revealed. Governments are tightening emissions standards and supporting industries on the front lines of the fight against climate change. Photo: Reuters. From electric vehicle powerhouses China and Europe… Governments around the globe have introduced a variety of policies to boost the electric vehicle industry over the years, including reducing taxes, fees, subsidies, incentives, and administrative regulations. The common point is that governments have set a specific roadmap to transition from fossil fuel vehicles to electric cars. According to the CNBC Many Chinese drivers switch to electric cars because of the government’s preferential policies. For example, in 2016, Chinese buyers received a nationwide discount of 55,000 yuan ($8,599.01) for each BEV and 30,000 yuan ($4,690) for PHEVs. Municipal governments also provide additional support up to 55,000 yuan. Beijing also subsidizes electric vehicle manufacturers based on battery power density, driving range and energy consumption. For example, in 2020, a pure electric vehicle with a minimum range of 300 km will receive a subsidy of 16,200-22,500 yuan (2,532-3,517 USD). Along with that, it supports the construction of a battery charging network for electric vehicles. For taxes and fees, China offers 50-100% reduction in user registration fees from time to time, annual tax relief, free or low-cost charging. In addition, manufacturers will receive credit points if they produce many electric vehicles. China is the leading electric vehicle market in the world. Photo: Reuters. Buyers of electric vehicles in China also receive preferential registration fees, no need to wait for car registration for 6-12 months, free highways, and parking. In Shenzhen alone, taxis switching to electric vehicles will be able to receive subsidies. A 27-year-old customer, who lives in Hangzhou, has been waiting almost a year for a license plate for his petrol car. However, after seeing Xpeng’s G3 electric car, she decided not to wait any longer. “After applying the government subsidy, the car fits my budget of about 180,000 yuan (US$27,643),” she said. The European Union (EU) is also gradually tightening emissions standards and supporting industries on the front lines in the fight against climate change. Much of the support goes to initiatives that push consumers to buy electric vehicles, which in turn drives demand. After applying the government subsidy, the car fits my budget of about 180,000 yuan (US$27,643) A 27-year-old customer in Hangzhou In 2020, sales of new electric vehicles in European countries doubled, accounting for 43% of global sales. Rising momentum has brought the EU over China to become the world’s largest electric vehicle market. For example, Germany subsidizes up to 4,000 euros ($4,874) per BEV and 3,000 euros ($3,656) for PHEVs. The country also built a €1 billion fund for rebates and building charging stations. Meanwhile, France subsidizes 6,000 euros ($7,312) for cars that emit less than 20g of CO2, 5,000 euros ($6,093) per BEV, and nearly 10,000 euros ($12,187.01) for customers who switch from diesel vehicles to BEVs. Similar to France and Germany, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Denmark and Finland also apply different subsidies to electric vehicle customers. Denmark alone reduces sales tax up to 80%. Some major Spanish cities reduce taxes by 75%, while Finland has a minimum tax rate. …to North America Transportation is currently America’s largest source of greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, US President Joe Biden’s plan to change gasoline cars to electric cars is essential to solving the problems of climate change. Biden’s proposals include incentives of up to $174 billion for electric cars. His plan is to increase discounts for customers who buy electric cars. In addition, the US president plans to push to increase the number of public chargers from 72,000 in 2019 to 500,000 in 2030. He also called for replacing the US government’s fleet of about 650,000 vehicles with models. electricity. Experts of Bloomberg It is estimated that 500,000 chargers may require about 6 billion USD of investment. Part of the $174 billion subsidy will also go directly to consumers to stimulate demand. Along with that are orders for electric vehicles directly from the federal government. To realize his climate ambitions, Mr. Biden needs to benefit as many electric vehicle manufacturers as possible. Bloomberg The above expenses all bring about the same effect. That’s increasing demand to accelerate the electrification of the US auto industry. Previously, the federal government and some states offered tax credits (up to $7,500) and incentives for buying electric vehicles, but the main federal incentive will begin to cut after manufacturers sold 200,000 electric cars. “To realize his climate ambitions, Mr. Biden needs to benefit as many electric vehicle manufacturers as possible.” Bloomberg comment. Meanwhile, the Canadian government requires that all vehicles sold starting in 2040 will produce zero emissions. The province of Québec will ban the sale of new gasoline-powered passenger cars from 2035. British Columbia will completely ban the sale or rental of gasoline-powered cars and trucks by 2040. Norway also introduced subsidy programs to boost sales of electric vehicles, including direct support of 4,000 euros ($4,874) to users, a 50% subsidy on vehicle prices and the cost of station construction and installation. charger for the manufacturer. A plan to change petrol cars to electric cars is necessary to address climate problems. Photo: Reuters. Along with that is a discount on fast charging service, free parking, fees for ships, boats, harbors, and the use of bus lanes; some road and ferry fees are waived. Taxes exempted for electric vehicles in Norway include fuel, road, and vehicle taxes. Meanwhile, Japan also exempts taxes related to vehicle ownership, purchase and tonnage. In 2020, electric car buyers will receive a subsidy of up to $7,700 depending on the vehicle’s battery capacity. According to Dr. Bui Quang Tuan, Director of the Vietnam Institute of Economics, government support is essential if Vietnam wants to develop the electric car industry to catch up with the world’s trends and achieve its goals. on green growth. “The support policy demonstrates the tectonic role of the State, its commitment to accompany businesses so that they can grow up, reach out to the world, and raise the level of Vietnamese people. Behind this policy is a very important political meaning, not just economic support,” said Dr. Bui Quang Tuan, Director of the Vietnam Institute of Economics.

For many people right now, the future belongs to electric cars and virtual currency. According to Canadian light-electric vehicle manufacturer Daymak, the future is also bright, and its essence is centered on the model. Spiritus . electric tricycle . Daymak is one of those electric vehicle startups that makes extremely bold promises with its upcoming models. In addition to the new 3-wheel electric scooter Spiritus introduced in March this year, Daymak is also developing everything from electric bicycles, electric motorcycles to flying cars. They all belong to a product line collectively called Avvenire. Daymak Spiritus 3-wheel electric scooter introduction image From this week, customers can make bookings buy Spiritus with virtual currency . The Canadian company accepts various cryptocurrencies such as Doge, Ethereum, Cardano, and Bitcoin. Most importantly, Daymak says, “the Spiritus you order today will earn you money when it’s parked tomorrow.” Specifically the year 2023. Daymak said that the 3-wheel electric car will be the first car that can mine virtual currency, so it dares to loudly claim it will make you money when you are not using it. Spiritus will feature a technology called Daymak Nebula, a “patent-pending, comprehensive virtual currency infrastructure,” that includes the hardware needed to mine the cryptocurrency and a virtual wallet to store and use. use virtual currency. This will happen when , but Daymak did not specify whether mining virtual currency will affect the charging time or not (highly likely yes). Daymak Spiritus 3-wheel electric scooter introduction image Because Spiritus is a zero-emission vehicle, turning it into a virtual currency mining machine is also anti-pollution. That will solve the problem of mining facilities emitting large amounts of energy. Daymak also plans to share this revolutionary technology with other electric vehicle manufacturers through licensing. Aldo Baiocchi, CEO of Daymak and the man behind the entire Avvenire product line, says that cryptocurrencies are the future and this is how Daymak rose to win customers. “People will pay with virtual currency by 2023, and we are building these cars with that in mind,” Baiocchi said. “Daymak Spiritus is more than just a car.” Daymak Spiritus 3-wheel electric scooter introduction image The above words sound appealing, but anyway, at the moment, Spiritus is just a model that exists in computer images and 3D models only. Time will tell if Daymak’s vision turns into reality.

Summer is considered the “business season” of Ly Son tourism (Quang Ngai). This year, however, everything turned upside down. These days, the pace of life on Ly Son island seems to slow down. There is no longer a busy scene of tourists as usual, instead it is a lonely, cold scene. That is because to prevent the Covid-19 epidemic from entering the area, Quang Ngai province banned all foreign tourists and international visitors to the island district. Therefore, industries related to tourism such as boats, canoes, trams, motels, hotels, homestays, restaurants, eateries, … all fall into a state of “hibernation”. The center of the island district at night is deserted Almost all accommodation establishments in the area are closed due to lack of guests Anchor ships wait for their turn to run alternately, operating frequency is only 20% of normal There are a total of 92 rooms of 4-star standard accommodation, nearly a month ago, Muong Thanh Ly Son hotel was still open for operation. Said to be active, but almost no guests came to rent the room. Mr. Bui Xuan Nghia – Director of Muong Thanh Ly Son Hotel, said that the unit has a total of 66 employees, currently only 5% are arranged to rotate activities. However, people who come only do cleaning and maintenance of equipment, but there are no guests to receive. Although there is no revenue, the unit still pays 40% of the monthly salary for employees to cover their lives and overcome difficulties. “Just got up after several consecutive epidemics, then storm No. 9, if this situation persists, I am afraid that people who live by tourism in Ly Son will find it difficult to sustain themselves” – Mr. Nghia worried. Opposite Muong Thanh Ly Son is Ngoc Island Resort – one of the large accommodation units on the island – which has been closed for more than three weeks now because there are no guests. Nearly all hotels, motels and homestays in Ly Son district are in a similar situation, “doors closed and bolted”. Many hotel and motel owners admit that they are facing a lot of difficulties because they have no revenue, while maintenance costs and bank loan interest are putting great pressure on. There were no tourists, so for nearly a month, the parking lot of the Ly Son District Labor Union was always in a state of no space. All cars are gathered here to “wait” for tourists, most tram drivers have found other jobs to make a living. The fleet of trams transporting tourists is gathered to the parking lot… lying down and waiting All shops and souvenir stalls serving tourists at scenic spots on the island are “covered”. If about a month ago, they were busy from early morning to late evening to take guests in and out of the port, visit, eat, … now, Vung – a 7-seat driver transports tourists on island – free again. Sighing, the young man sadly shared: “In the past, I ran a lot, now it takes a long time to get people on the island to get here and there. I don’t know when the situation will improve again.” Sharing the same fate at the wharf with the car is a fleet of ships and canoes. Normally, at the lowest point, every day the Sa Ky – Ly Son route also has at least three trains to connect the island to the mainland. But now there is only one turn left to serve the travel needs of people and officials working on the island, absolutely no tourists. Being able to run seems to be better if you look at the scene of dozens of canoes on the big island – the small island that have to be lined up close to each other, sunbathing in the rain for more than a month now in the boat anchorage because the route is completely paralyzed. . Fuck it, go find a job “fire fighting” Experiencing three consecutive epidemics, plus the impact of natural disasters, most of the restaurants in the area have been “hit”. Along the mobile route around the island, there are dozens of shops specializing in serving tourists, which have almost closed over the past month. The shop lingered open, but only a few local guests. Anh An – Manager of Ly Son Basket Seafood Restaurant, said that since the day there was a ban on visitors to the island, his restaurant had temporarily stopped operating, all staff were laid off. This time, he focuses on repairing the restaurant and upgrading the facilities so that when the epidemic is under control, the ban is lifted and it reopens. All major restaurants on the island are closed “There are many difficulties, but united and fighting the epidemic is the prerequisite task of each person. I believe that we will come back to life when the epidemic is under control,” said An. Without tourists, the source of income is therefore completely cut off, so tourism workers in Ly Son are facing the challenge of “survival” when their work will never return to normal. . Taking advantage of the availability, many guides have chosen to post the seafood sale on their personal facebook page; most drivers of ships, canoes and cars get off the boat to go to the sea; hotel owners selling onions, garlic, soft drinks, etc. Everyone tries to find a job “fire fighting” to make ends meet. Nhung – the receptionist of a large hotel – has been out of work for more than a month due to the closure of the hotel, and has managed to find a temporary job at a cafe near her house. “Like I was lucky, because many people now just stay at home, now have a job, have an income to cover expenses is what many people want, but the specificity of the island district is not easy.” , Nhung shared. Mr. Le Van Ninh – Vice Chairman of Ly Son District People’s Committee, said that due to the influence of the epidemic, the island district is not currently welcoming tourists. This is a move to protect people against complicated developments of the disease in some localities. “We do not know when the tourism activities in the locality will be restored, currently the impact of the epidemic is very large, seriously affecting the income and life of people,” said Ninh. to speak.

During the pilot period, users do not have to pay service fees. Funding for implementation comes from funding from the European Commission and support from agencies implementing the pilot plan. It is known that the plan to connect two-wheeled electric vehicles with BRT fast buses in the planned pilot area has been reported to the City People’s Committee by the Hanoi Department of Transport and Communications. After being approved by the city, stakeholders will soon implement this model.

Billionaire Elon Musk – Photo: Bloomberg Recently, Elon Musk’s tweet about the popular children’s song on YouTube “Baby Shark” helped the stock price of a related company increase sharply, according to Bloomberg. Specifically, on the morning of June 2 (Asia time), Musk tweeted: “Baby Shark crushes them all! Views are more than the population of the earth.” Immediately, the share price of Samsung Publishing Co., a shareholder of the “Baby Shark” manufacturer, increased by 10% to the highest level since May 7. Since 2018, when the song became popular, the stock price has quadrupled. The song “Baby Shark” (Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo) started to hit the headlines in 2018, charting on the Billboard Hot 100 for weeks and now has nearly 8.7 billion views on YouTube. Even last month, a virtual currency named Baby Shark. The influence that turned the financial markets around from Elon Musk’s tweets made many investors concerned and called for authorities to step in. Many losers angrily urged him to stop using Twitter. Earlier this year, the move to change the personal description on Twitter to #bitcoin led many investors to speculate that the world’s richest billionaire bought into Bitcoin, pushing the price of this virtual currency up 20% to $ 38,566 – a record level. record that time. Less than 24 hours later, Elon Musk sent the stock price of CD Projekt, the company behind Cyberpunk 2077, up more than 12% after announcing on Twitter that Tesla’s new Model S Plaid electric car version would allow the guests play this game in the car. Not long after, the Tesla boss sparked a wild rally in GameStop stock after tweeting: “Gamestonk!!” with a link to WallStreetBets – a subpage of the Reddit information aggregator website. “Gamestonk” is a combination of GameStop and “stonks” – a slang word for stocks. “He knows he has great influence and has shown he enjoys playing with it, even if it hurts his followers,” said Heidi Chakos of Portugal, a Bitcoin investor. since 2014, told the Wall Street Journal. Meanwhile, Freetrade analyst Dan Lane said: “It’s ironic that Elon Musk has the ability to shake the market. Maybe it’s time to discuss the legality of this.” While waiting for the authorities to step in (if any), many investors still look to Musk’s tweets for investment direction, even considering him as a “hero”. Although later, when they lost, they turned to criticize him. However, it should be clear that, while the Tesla boss makes a point on everything from cryptocurrency Dogecoin to GameStop stock, he is actually an entrepreneur, not a portfolio manager. fourth. Musk isn’t the only one influencing the market through social media. Over the past year or so, many celebrities, from hedge fund managers to CEOs and entertainment stars, have taken advantage of platforms like Twitter, Reddit, Clubhouse, and more to express their views on everything from cryptocurrencies to stocks.

Pilot area from Aeon mall Ha Dong to BRT Van Khe station According to the Hanoi Department of Transport, the pilot project of a two-wheeled electric vehicle model connecting public passenger transport modes in Hanoi city is researched and researched by the University of Transport Technology. offer. The basic scheme is consistent with one of the solutions to strengthen the management of road vehicles in order to reduce traffic congestion and environmental pollution in Hanoi city according to Resolution No. 04/2017/NQ- People’s Council dated July 4, 2017 of the People’s Council. Pilot area from Aeon mall Ha Dong to BRT Van Khe station. The pilot period is expected to be until the end of 2023, after which it will be re-evaluated to replicate the whole city. During the pilot period, users do not have to pay service fees. As a result, improving the efficiency of public passenger transport, reducing private vehicles. The piloting of two-wheeled electric vehicles helps passengers form the habit of using green means of transport, while raising awareness of environmental protection. Thereby, strengthening solutions to manage road vehicles, reducing traffic congestion and environmental pollution in Hanoi city. Two types of electric vehicles are used, including electric scooters and electric bicycles. In which, there are 50 electric PCX cars of Honda Vietnam Company and 10 electric bicycles of QIQ Vietnam Company. Specifically, when passengers arrive at Aeon mall Ha Dong, if there is a need to use the BRT bus, there will be staff to assist in installing the application on the phone and declaring personal information. Once the information is accepted, the user can borrow a two-wheeled electric vehicle to move to the BRT rapid transit area at Van Khe point, then return the car and take the BRT bus. Similarly, with the process from BRT waiting room to Aeon mall Ha Dong. For those using private vehicles, they can drop off at the first and last two points and then borrow a two-wheeled tram to move to the regular bus stop or BRT bus. The process of moving from these two points is stored and monitored in the system through the previously installed application. The system also provides the necessary functions for the electric vehicle sharing model, including monitoring the battery condition of the vehicle and raising an alarm in the event of a problem.

Strength of Tesla electric car is the ability to upgrade the vehicle’s software over a network connection, similar to what today’s smartphone models do. However, not every software upgrade that the US automaker has released also brings benefits to users. Recently, a court in Norway has declared Tesla brand penalty due to the limitation of the vehicle’s charging current as well as the vehicle battery capacity. Accordingly, the US electric vehicle brand must compensate 16,000 USD (365 million VND) for each customer affected by this software upgrade. It is known that most Tesla models with limited charging current and battery capacity are Model S and Model X vehicles equipped with high-capacity 85 kWh battery packs. Currently this battery pack has been discontinued in 2016. Tesla electric vehicle models equipped with 85kWh battery packs have been affected by the software update Over the past few years, many Tesla car users have complained about the car having a shorter range after a major software update rolled out in 2019. In connection with this incident, many users have created many Hot topics and discussions on the Reddit platform and Tesla car user forums. Some users said that after the Tesla electric car was upgraded with software, the vehicle’s travel range was reduced by about 20 km compared to before. Also because of the above incident, many people have filed a lawsuit in the California court. In this indictment, the user accuses the Tesla car brand of using the car battery capacity limit feature through a software update. As such, it appears that Tesla’s software update affects not only users in the US but also a lot of people in other markets, including Norway, where the courts have sided with users. A representative of the US electric car company said that the software upgrades that users complain about are important, in order to “protect the battery pack as well as improve its usage life”. It is known that after the court ruling in Norway, Tesla will have a few weeks to appeal. A representative of the US electric car company said that the software upgrades that users complain about are important, in order to “protect the battery pack as well as improve its usage life”. The class-action lawsuit against Tesla in the US is still pending.

Buy outright battery – expensive solution for invisible benefits The biggest benefit of buying outright batteries is not in the material value but in the spiritual value. It’s a feeling of ownership. But to get that intangible benefit, customers will have to trade it with a relatively large financial burden. The battery is by far the most expensive component of an electric vehicle, accounting for about 30-40% of the cost, according to UK-based research and consulting firm GlobalData. In the foggy country, most electric cars are still at least $13,000 more expensive than a comparable internal combustion engine car. “The biggest barrier to owning an electric car is cost,” Rod Dennis of RAC, the UK’s leading car service, told The Guardian. Although there has been a “revolution” in battery production costs, falling from $1,000/kWh in 2010 to about $150-200/kWh in 2020, according to James Frith, head of Energy Finance column. New Energy (NEF) of Bloomberg news agency, “for electric vehicles to be as cheap as internal combustion engine cars, the battery price must be brought back to the threshold of $100/kWh”. However, according to Bloomberg, the increase in raw material prices on a global scale can create a “bottleneck” that makes the goal of lowering the price of the “energy heart” of electric vehicles more difficult. “It is not a wise choice to spend thousands of dollars more just for the ‘feel of ownership’. Not to mention, the user will be responsible for all risks with the battery block if any, “said an automotive expert. Swap batteries – more risks, more costs To reduce costs for customers, some electric car manufacturers offer a battery swap policy to separate the battery from the price of the car. Specifically, instead of buying outright, customers will rent the battery pack from the manufacturer or a 3rd party. When the battery is almost depleted, the customer will bring the car to the service workshop to replace the fully charged battery. In August 2020, NIO launched a BaaS (Battery as a Service) battery exchange service with a subscription fee from 980 yuan / month (150 USD). According to “Tesla of China”, the BaaS service helps the company reduce the price of cars by about 70,000 yuan (more than $10,000). For customers, refueling the car also becomes as quick as refueling. However, every coin has two sides, the battery swap policy also shows many inadequacies. Before NIO, the battery swap model was tested in the French and Taiwanese markets, but was not really successful. In 2019, French car company Renault had to stop this policy. “Battery swapping will be more suitable for two and three-wheeled vehicles, using low voltage, usually 48V, and small battery capacity, from 1.5kWh to up to 4kWh”, said CV Raman – Head of Engineering of the company. Maruti Suzuki India, analysis. Raman also said that this is the reason why Maruti Suzuki did not enter the electric car battery swap business. “Car batteries use high voltage, are integrated with many technologies and involve the cooling system. Frequent swapping compromises integrity, creates insecurity and increases the risks associated with electrical contact,” he said. On the other hand, Omprakash Upadhyay, an electric vehicle expert at TATA AutoComp (India), said that swapping batteries does not completely reduce the cost burden for customers. This model requires large, complex and expensive infrastructure as service shops have to keep a large stock of pre-charged batteries at all times. “Invisible medium, each car must have at least two sets of batteries – one set inside the vehicle and one available in the battery replacement station. This increases the cost of the car a lot, given the fact that the battery is the most expensive component in an electric vehicle,” Upadhyay said. Battery subscription – optimal for economy, maximum for safety The battery subscription policy that some companies like VinFast apply can be considered a perfect solution, helping to balance both the advantages and limitations of the two forms of outright purchase and swap. In economic terms, instead of having to spend “a lump” of thousands of dollars to buy batteries, customers will be leased batteries by manufacturers. The monthly subscription fee is offered by the company based on the calculation of the average distance traveled. With the VF e34 model, VinFast applies a subscription fee of 1.45 million VND/month for a distance of 1,400km, meeting the average travel demand well. “Operating costs, including battery rental and electric charging, are equal to the cost of gasoline consumption, and the price and features are superior to gasoline cars,” said Ms. Thai Thi Thanh Hai – General Director of VinFast. . According to estimates by GlobalData, the cost of buying a battery pack is equivalent to the total subscription fee for more than 8 years. The form of “split” cost over time is currently quite popular with technology products and services such as phone, television or Internet packages. In particular, the indispensable advantage of the subscription form is that the manufacturer will be responsible for the battery throughout the product life cycle, even to the recycling stage, bringing absolute peace of mind and peace to customers. row. Like VinFast, the company is committed to replacing customers with a new battery pack when the battery’s ability to receive charge drops below 70%. This is a “super benefit” that customers who buy the battery outright do not get. “Battery rental helps car owners benefit more when the battery is checked, maintained and serviced in a timely manner by the manufacturer. This model will be the key for electric vehicles to develop on a large scale, “said GlobalData.

1. Vehicle management by… phone Not only interacting with the car from the inside, VF e34 users can also manage and control the vehicle remotely through a mobile application that integrates a series of modern functions. User can manage VF e34 with smartphone With an Internet-connected phone in hand, car owners can easily capture vehicle parameters such as journey, remaining battery, maintenance history… VF e34 will also proactively provide reminders remind or warn the user when necessary. 2. Suggested schedule At a smarter level, with the journey planning feature, the car will suggest a suitable schedule, optimizing both time, distance, remaining battery in the car and charging stations on the road. When the battery level is low, the VF e34 is also capable of giving warnings and suggesting users to search for the nearest charging station, service workshop and then give directions to the driver. 3. Auto-generate distress signal in case of emergency When there is a serious problem on the road, the car will automatically send a distress signal and send coordinates to the rescue switchboard via GPS and Internet connection. Urgent rescue requests or feedback from car owners to customer care can be done quickly and conveniently. At the same time, the rescue vehicle location and vehicle rescue status will also be displayed in real time on the mobile application. Smart features on VinFast VF e34 electric car 4. Smart anti-theft One of the preeminent smart features of the VF e34 is the ability to self-anti-theft, detect signs of break-in and notify the car owner. When there is an impact from outside, the car will flash lights and horns. The vehicle’s camera system will automatically collect images and send notifications to the vehicle owner about the risk of being broken into via a mobile phone application. The vehicle owner can locate the vehicle in real time thanks to the built-in GPS. 5. Remote software update VinFast’s smart electric car is equipped with a FOTA (Firmware Over-The-Air) remote software update feature similar to a mobile phone. When a new software version is available, the system will display a notification for the truck owner to download and install. After completing the update and self-check, the car will sync the new information to the system and the management application on the phone. As a result, car owners do not need to go to a VinFast dealer or service workshop to update the software, but can do this anywhere with an Internet connection. 6. Self-study and remember the owner’s habits The special impression of users with the intelligent technology of VF e34 will be the comfortable experience inside the car. Entertainment functions or air conditioning control can all be commanded by voice. VF e34 will automatically analyze and remember the habits of people in the car người After each use, the AI ​​in the car will analyze and remember the habits of the people in the car. Each user will have their own profile and the car will play music according to the habits recorded in that profile.

Tesla CEO – Elon Musk voiced China’s concerns about this information. “We always want to keep any customer information confidential. If a customer finds out that Tesla is using an electric car to spy in China or anywhere else, we will shut down,” Billion said US billionaire Elon Musk said at the China Development Forum in March. Tesla has recently faced many challenges in the Chinese electric vehicle market. In February, the company was summoned by regulators to discuss the quality of electric vehicles made in Shanghai. Chinese authorities expressed concern about a number of problems with the vehicles manufactured by the company, such as abnormal acceleration and battery fires. The company has faced direct criticism from consumers. In February, Tesla was forced to apologize after a customer provided a video of an issue with charging. In a public interview last month, billionaire Musk emphasized: “I am very confident about Tesla’s future in China. The Chinese economy will thrive in the next decade and will become a major economy. best of the world”.

“A key element in Kia’s transition has been the transition from internal combustion engines to electric motors,” said President and CEO, Kia North America.

Tesla cars are restricted in China because of spying concerns Some Chinese government agencies restrict access to Tesla vehicles. They are concerned that car cameras affect security. According to the Reuters , many government buildings in China have just announced to restrict the entry of Tesla cars, citing the risk of spying. This move shows that the Chinese government is increasingly afraid of electric vehicle products from the US. In March, Chinese government and military employees were asked to stop using Tesla vehicles. The reason comes from the CCTV system on Tesla cars that can continuously record, track the location and travel time of the vehicle. The Chinese side is concerned that sensitive information and images may be collected and transmitted to the US. In addition, contacts or synchronized communication between the car and the phone are also said to be likely to leak. Before the newly announced restriction order for government buildings, Tesla vehicles were restricted from entering the premises of aerospace companies or the residences of high-ranking officials. In response to the move from China, in March, billionaire Elon Musk denied allegations about the ability of Tesla cars to spy. Speaking during an online meeting of the China Development Forum, the American CEO said that if Tesla used a car to spy on China or any other country, the company would shut down. China is Tesla’s most important market, contributing about 30% of sales to the US electric car company. However, from the beginning of 2021 until now, Tesla has continuously faced many difficulties and disadvantages in this billion-people market. In addition to the negative accusations about the risk of government spying, Tesla also faced a wave of criticism from users regarding its quality and unfriendly behavior with the public. These things forced Tesla to make concessions and defuse tensions by taking steps to comply with the regulations of the local government, while limiting the management’s dissenting statements in China.

That means if the autonomous feature is needed, car owners can activate it and pay for it. Currently, any car connected to the internet can receive software updates, similar to electronic devices like smartphones. Even with just one software upgrade, the range of an electric vehicle can be dramatically increased. Existing platforms make Volkswagen’s head of sales and marketing Klaus Zellmer think the group can exploit that way of working to give customers more freedom in the use of their vehicles. Instead of letting customers choose the equipment, Volkswagen will assemble the car with everything but disable them with software. When there is a need to use it, customers spend more money to rent that feature under a monthly or yearly subscription package. To visualize, Zellmer used the example of Level 4 autonomous mode expected on VW vehicles in the future. As soon as this almost the highest self-driving feature is officially adopted and widely used, many people probably still do not believe it and do not use it. So they won’t have to spend money. As for car owners in need, Zellmer shared that they may need to pay about 7 euros, about $ 8.5, per hour to be able to use the level 4 autonomous feature.

This person livestreamed right at the exhibition, then went to Tesla’s booth and the incident happened. The girl said her Model 3 car’s brakes failed, nearly killing 4 members of her family in an accident. Tesla has denied the relevant information, but it doesn’t stop there. This is not the only difficulty with Tesla at the moment. The world’s top electric car maker may even be facing one of the worst public relations crises in China, a market investors see as a special feature. crucial to Tesla’s growth momentum. Under increasing pressure to become the focus of criticism from Chinese media and regulators, Tesla is said to be strengthening cooperation with regulators in the mainland and strengthening relationships. with the Beijing government. Tesla’s shift in strategy toward fostering behind-the-scenes interactions with policymakers in Beijing marks a shift from the company’s previous stance, which did not seem to take market failures too seriously. its second largest university (after the US). The changes also take place in the context that China is actively “regulating” many large and powerful private companies, especially technology giants, due to concerns about the risk of domination in this market. A woman protesting on the roof of a Tesla Model 3 electric car at the Shanghai Auto Show in April 2019. Tesla “turns the car”? It is customary for Chinese regulators to discuss policy and industry standards with local and multinational companies, as well as associations and consulting organizations. Attending these meetings has become the norm for many tech companies, but unlike rivals including Toyota Motor and General Motors, Tesla executives are largely absent from closed-door meetings. Instead, Tesla officials regularly speak at high-level conferences. Tesla CEO, billionaire Elon Musk also regularly uses Twitter to comment or criticize China’s regulators or strict rules. However, in the past weeks, Tesla executives have attended at least four policy discussions, with topics ranging from automotive data storage, technology to connect information from vehicles to systems. infrastructure, vehicle recycling and carbon emissions. There, according to officials, Tesla — which is headquartered in California and produces the Model 3 sedan and Model Y sport utility vehicle at a separate factory in Shanghai — made no specific commitments. only participate in the discussion. There are other signs that Tesla – once “sweetheart” – is looking to mend its rocky relationship with Chinese authorities. In two job ads posted on its WeChat account in April, Tesla wanted to find management candidates to update its policy database and maintain relationships with governments and industry associations to ” building a harmonious external environment and supporting Tesla’s business development goals in the regional market.” The exact number of candidates Tesla is looking for is unknown. Tesla Model 3 car. Attack wave A flood of negative news about Tesla in China has increased in recent months. Earlier this year, a Tesla Model 3 was reported to have exploded in a garage in Shanghai, while an article in state media said there were at least 10 reported incidents this year. 2020 about Tesla drivers losing the ability to control their vehicles. In February 2021, the State Market Administration summoned a Tesla representative to request feedback on consumer complaints related to issues such as battery fires, unexpected acceleration, and software update errors. software over the internet. It is reported that China has also recommended the use of Tesla cars to state employees because of the belief that the vehicle’s sensors can record images and location data. In March 2021, Tesla made headlines when the military announced it was “banning” access to Tesla equipment and vehicles from military complexes, citing security concerns with vehicle-mounted cameras. . A few days later, Elon Musk then emphasized at a high-level forum that Tesla would shut down if its cars were used for spying purposes. CEO Musk also sought to defuse tensions in a March speech to state broadcaster CCTV that China’s future “will be great” and that the country will be “the biggest market.” of Tesla. However, the incident at the Shanghai Auto Show and the subsequent reaction of Tesla Vice President Grace Tao was seen as the last straw when, instead of admitting shortcomings, the Tesla and Tesla relationship official The government again questioned the real motives of the above extreme guest. According to Grace Tao, the disruptive woman clearly wanted a high level of compensation and the company didn’t have any reason to pay her. In a post on Weibo, Tesla claimed not to compromise with “unreasonable demands”. State media and government agencies were quick to criticize Tesla. State news agencies flooded Tesla with a series of posts pointing out risks and technical errors, while officials issued warnings. An article in state media titled “Three Lessons for Tesla” warned the California-based electric car maker to respect the Chinese consumer market. The Global Times article emphasized: “The arrogant and overbearing stance that Tesla takes in public is reprehensible and unacceptable, which can seriously damage its reputation and source of the company’s customers in the Chinese market”. Xinhua News Agency and People’s Daily both publicly said that Tesla was indifferent to the interests of consumers. Tesla was criticized for canceling their investment pledges (estimated 14 billion yuan) and tax pledges (about 2.23 billion yuan annually), even failing to meet revenue targets. A wave of attacks, demanding to “evice” Tesla from China is repeating like what Google has faced. Many argue that what is more worrying is that the negative comments are not only appearing on a few articles but are increasingly taking the form of an organized “anti-Tesla” campaign. The involvement of state media makes things worse, because the lesson with Dolce&Gabana or H&M recently showed that Beijing has the right to “bring something up and bury it” when needed. Tesla later issued a statement apologizing for its lack of sensitivity in handling customer complaints. A post on Weibo later said that Tesla was willing to cooperate with the authorities, properly implementing “self-inspection and adjustment” procedures to “fix” customer service issues. Inside a Tesla factory. Beijing’s Power Tesla was once seen as a “baby”, one of Beijing’s efforts to demonstrate that China is allowing more foreign businesses to enter its relatively closed market. The company has been increasing its investment and focusing on the Chinese market over the past two years. With government backing, Tesla broke ground on a major Shanghai factory in 2019 and last year began delivering Model 3s built at the factory to customers in China. Tesla’s China sales have more than doubled in 2020, and the Model 3 is the best-selling electric vehicle in the country. Accounting for about 30% of Tesla’s global sales, China is the automaker’s second-biggest market after the United States and helped Tesla hit a record for first-quarter vehicle deliveries. CEO Elon Musk even had a meeting with Premier Li Keqiang in 2019. However, the success has come with closer scrutiny, especially as many local businesses are also looking for a larger market share in this potential electric vehicle sector. China’s favorable policies towards electric cars have spurred the birth of a number of startups hoping to compete with Tesla such as Nio and Xpeng Motors, although their sales are still far behind Tesla. Simply put, to some extent, Beijing welcomes Tesla’s presence and investment in the electric vehicle market, but still wants the dominance of domestic players in this area. The most prominent in the Chinese electric vehicle market is currently Tesla, SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile Co. and BYD. Data in March showed that these three giants accounted for 55% of China’s electric vehicle market, but only 5% of the total market share in the country’s auto market, a fact that the electric vehicle market still very young. Hongguang Mini, the SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile joint venture, has overtaken Tesla this year in terms of sales. Everything will now probably depend on Tesla’s ability to penetrate deeper into China, a market seen as key to Tesla’s global success. The challenge for Tesla now is to make sure it doesn’t take another serious hit in China, where Tesla is poised for more than 40% of its total global deliveries by 2022. China has clearly created favorable conditions for Tesla, the giant in the electric car industry, and now realizes that letting this darling dominate the market may not be in China’s interest. Many companies like Volkswagen and Mercedes have gone through the same thing.

The switch to electric vehicles will affect at least 178,000 jobs in the German auto industry. Photo: VNA Ifo’s research presents a number of potential challenges in the future as governments work to phase out diesel and gasoline-powered vehicles in favor of low-emissions, even zero-emission vehicles. waste. In a statement released alongside the report, Ifo said an estimated 75,000 workers in Germany’s car manufacturing sector will retire by the middle of the decade. But if by 2025, the production of cars powered by internal combustion engines falls to levels previously predicted under current emissions regulations, the switch to electric vehicles will affect little. 178,000 jobs in the German auto industry. This group, Ifo explained, would include workers manufacturing product groups directly or indirectly dependent on internal combustion engines, with 137,000 of these working directly in the auto industry. Ifo President Clemens Fuest described the transition to electric vehicles as a major challenge, especially for auto parts suppliers as midsize companies dominate the sector. . He assessed that it is important to maintain skilled jobs in the production of vehicles using internal combustion engines and electric vehicles without changing the industry structure. The report comes after the German federal government announced its ambition to have 7-10 million new registered electric vehicles in the country by the end of the decade. In January 2021, Germany’s road traffic regulator said sales of electric vehicles in Germany will be more than 194,000 units in 2020, a threefold increase from the previous year. Internationally, the European Commission has also expressed its desire to have at least 30 million zero-emissions cars on the road by 2030, as part of its “Smart and Sustainable Transport Strategy.” . According to the International Energy Agency, about 3 million new electric cars were registered last year, a record number and up 41% from 2019.

This is part of the agreement the two signed last Friday. The deal will see JD become the latest Chinese Internet company to join the smart electrification craze that is transforming the auto industry day by day. Enovate said both sides will also work on digital marketing to get the startup up and running as soon as possible. “We will share resources in a number of different aspects, from branding and products to users and channels of distribution and consumption,” said Yu Songyao, senior executive at Enovate. . A new energy Enovate sedan attracts the attention of visitors at the Guangzhou auto show. JD, also known as Jingdong and formerly 360buy, is a Chinese e-commerce company headquartered in Beijing. The company is one of two giant B2C retailers in China by transaction volume and revenue, a member of Fortune Global 500. In other words, JD is the 2nd largest e-commerce company in China, just behind Alibaba. Forging partnerships with big internet companies is crucial, analysts say, as the chance to stand out is slimmer for lesser-known startups. Early adopters like Tesla and Nio are gaining ground, traditional carmakers including Volkswagen are also launching their own electric cars, so the door for latecomers is closing. quickly, must really try and be quick. Statistics show that Nio sold 20,060 vehicles in the first three months of this year, up 422.7 percent year-on-year. Volkswagen said it expects to sell 100,000 electric vehicles in China this year. Late last month, Nezha, another little-known electric car startup, announced a partnership with Chinese internet security company Qihoo 360. The company will become the second largest shareholder as it leads Nezha’s 3 billion yuan ($467 million) Series D fundraising effort. According to analysts, Internet security is becoming an essential issue as vehicles get smarter and 360 Security is seeking this investment to open up a platform for its products. on smart cars. Nezha CEO Zhang Yong said Qihoo 360 will provide the startup with technical help and facilitate financing for the company. “For us, the top task now is survival,” Zhang said. Founded in 2014, Nezha has sold more than 35,000 vehicles across its two car models. The company’s sales in the first quarter of 2021 increased fivefold, to more than 7,400 vehicles.

Dinh Tram Ca was famous before 1975 with the song “Ruling the old love”: “In the past three years, I have become a young woman/Sit down to lull me to forget my sad fate…”. “Ru concubine old love” was composed by Dinh Tram Ca in 1967, but it was not until 3 years later, 1970, that the new song was popularized through Le Thu’s singing. This is also considered the debut composition of Dinh Tram Ca. The author of “Ru concubine’s ex” was born with the name Mac Phu: “I don’t know what the meaning of this name is, my father gave it to me”, Dinh Tram Ca said. The stage name “Dinh Tram Ca” was given by him, “Ding” is his mother’s last name, but he changed “i” to “y” so that “the paternal side doesn’t think of me as matriarchal”, he explained. And “Tram Ca” is just “taking and playing”. Musician and poet from Quang was born in a rather special family: “My parents are illiterate. He only knew a little bit of Chinese characters, insignificant, not of any kind of literature. My mother is illiterate, but she knows how to sing and can set the lyrics herself, in the past it was called ant at singing (composed on the spot). My father sings well too.” Maybe because of her mother’s “gene” influence, Dinh Tram Ca did not struggle to compose. Like the song “Flying away the drizzle” that many people think he popularizes other people’s poetry. But not: “I am a few years younger than Mr. Pham Cong Thien. At that time, Pham Cong Thien was brilliant in the South. I also adore him. I see him writing an essay or something called “Flying away the drizzle”. I like the title, very strange, very cute. When I read the title, I immediately sang the chorus,” recalled Dinh Tram Ca. However, after completing the chorus, he left it because he didn’t know what to write it for? On the day of liberation, Dinh Tram Ca completed “Flying away the drizzling rain”: “Fly away, fly away the drops on the souls of the people who always remember / A sad past / About wandering in the middle of the drizzle / A past with rain is our tears / Let’s fly away the rain dust on the lonely soul…”. Wandering around the East and West, making a living by all kinds of occupations Dinh Tram Ca used to work as a farmer for 6 years. Called being a “farmer” for luxury, he actually had to sing human excrement: “I have to escape my hometown. There, I couldn’t stand it, people were all sore. But escaping to the South is not easy. At that time, it was difficult to buy a bus ticket, it was impossible to go without a referral. But I have a grandson who makes fake tickets,” the musician recounts the painful memory. Arriving in the capital, Dinh Tram Ca had only a little change left: “I’m at the bus station, working as a porter, I don’t know how many more years. Then I left again, every time I heard someone I knew somewhere, I went to look for them to save me…”. Just like that, Dinh Tram Ca drifted from the East to the West, earning a living by all kinds of hard jobs. More than 20 years have passed! After that, Dinh Tram Ca returned to Ho Chi Minh City and gave birth to “Country River”. “There is a river flowing in my memory / My village is on the side of the landslide, your village is on the flood side…”. Many people are curious where is the “river flowing in memory” where is Dinh Tram Ca? Please don’t go looking. “I wrote ‘Country River’ just in the morning. This song is not composed, but the Southern sound is already available”, Dinh Tram Ca said about the “spiritual child” loved by many people. “Countryside River” was not born by a sudden inspiration but a form of writing on demand: “A person who knew my name before 75, during a drink or coffee, he asked me to be the editor. practice for him, compose a program for him. Because he has a nephew abroad who wants to make a music video. I just asked: How do you have money? He replied: Yes. So I nodded, being “hungry”. Next, I asked him, what kind of music would you like to choose, he wanted to make the theme of his homeland, the Southern sound. I chose some other people’s songs into a program called “Country River” and started writing the theme song”, Dinh Tram Ca shared the circumstances of the song’s birth. The author of “Country River” has many compositions for himself, but there are also many songs written on demand, like “River of the countryside”. Life in a rice bra sometimes becomes an excuse for composing. One of the famous bolero songs “Back to the sim hill”, was born like that: “I write to make money. At that time, the bolero was in vogue. The labels needed the song, so I wrote “Back to the sim hill”. I asked: “Going back to sim hill” will bring you big royalties? Dinh Tram Ca laughed: “It’s not that high, I also wrote 5, 10 dong”. Even “Ru the old love” did not bring Dinh Tram Ca significant revenue. It is said that Lam Phuong can buy a villa in Saigon with “Sad City”, mentioning that to Dinh Tram Ca, he laughed: “They are seniors. Professional composers in Saigon. As for me in a small town, I’m a country boy in the countryside. I’m not a pro, just a player.” By the way, Dinh Tram Ca also corrected that he was not a literature teacher: “Although many people call me teacher. I do teach but teach people. Then he was invited by the school to teach for a few years. I didn’t graduate from pedagogy to teach, so I don’t recognize myself as a teacher.” So, who is Dinh Tram Ca, I asked. “Until now I don’t know who I am,” he replied. And he read me a poem he wrote when he was 20 years old, “Portrait of me”, ending with two sentences: “Sorrow dangling from my back/O strange beast that was never me”. I don’t know if the poetry was absorbed into Dinh Tram Ca’s life or the arduous life made Dinh Tram Ca’s poetry and music heavy? The song I like, the audience doesn’t know It is often said: Dinh Tram Ca is a student of the author of the first Vietnamese bolero song. Dinh Tram Ca confirmed: He studied with the author “Sunshine” for more than 2 years, less than 3 years. However, musician Le Trong Nguyen’s impression was not deep on Dinh Tram Ca’s musical journey: “When I went to high school, I studied with him. Of course, every teacher favors gifted students. I studied music theory, notation with him, in general it was not significant. Who really taught music to Dinh Tram Ca? “My younger friends taught me music,” he said. At that time, there were very artistic families. Sisters and brothers know the piano. Since I was a child, I have loved the piano. Seeing my friends playing, I asked them to teach me. I played the mandolin, because it was difficult to find a guitar back then.” When he was a child, Dinh Tram sang very well, so young artists often asked Dinh Tram to sing for them to play. The musician revealed: “Those young people are excellent players.” Dinh Tram Ca used to hold the “head” of the school’s arts department, so many girls fell in love. Being the head of the art department is very “cool”: “If I let anyone sing, I can sing. I said the string broke and the principal had to buy it for me. I practiced singing, he gave me money to eat and drink,” remembers the old days Dinh Tram Ca was happy and excited. musician Dinh Tram Ca If “Ru con con of an old love” was a famous song by Dinh Tram Ca before 75, then the poetry collection “Night Eyes”, published in 69 by Dinh Tram Ca was highly appreciated at that time. Are you more predisposed to poetry or to music? I asked Dinh Tram Ca. He immediately refused: “No, I do not claim to be a poet. I also don’t claim to be a musician. They call it that, I don’t argue.” The two songs that are loved by the audience, “Ru con con of old love”, “Song of the countryside” are not the two favorite songs of their father. “The song I like, the audience won’t know, because it’s not popular,” he said. Dinh Tram Ca’s musical fortune is not huge, according to the author, only about a hundred songs: “By the year 75, my manuscripts and prints were completely confiscated. I don’t bother to write again.” Is there a song you want to find again now? I asked again. The musician replied, “No. No need either. It’s fine to write it out curiously, but why write it down?”, he laughed. In 2000, Dinh Tram Ca stopped composing in both music and poetry: “Because health is just one thing”, he mused. Poetry and music used to be “lovers” that made Dinh Tram Ca passionate, but one day he “cut off” both. Is it because of financial problems, both “lovers” do not help him live well? “Those things should not be said, people will say that they are arrogant or guilty,” he did not want to dig into the reasons why he stopped composing. Referring to Dinh Tram Ca’s poetry, it is impossible not to mention “Phuong Nam’s drifting song of the hyacinth cluster”. This is also the “song” Dinh Tram Ca is very pleased with: “Going / As if drifting / We go to the South / To the side of the Gypsy swallows calling for spring to chirping / Towards the fast flowing alluvial red rivers / We meet more clusters of water hyacinth / Drift / Drift / Drift / And drift… / We are gradually moving away from the old wharf / For decades, the wind remembers blowing the sky / Still want to bring joy to the mother river / Even though we can only bloom pale purple flowers” . Many people think that the verse: “I, the water hyacinth both float and bloom”, is the verse the author wants to talk about his floating life. But, that’s a misinterpretation: “That sentence is a bit arrogant, so it won’t hurt. In the past, I wrote: “My life is like a moss of sin”, in “Ru the old love”. The moss is submerged under the water. The water hyacinth floats on top, riding the waves, riding the wind proudly,” explained Dinh Tram Ca. Dinh Tram Ca’s health has been declining for the past 5, 6 years. The person who “walks like a drift” now can only hang around the house, eyes can no longer see… The most comforting thing for Dinh Tram Ca is that he has a family with members who love each other wholeheartedly. Dinh Tram Ca’s wife is Ma Thu Giang, named in some of his songs, such as “Back to Sim Hill”. Perhaps this is Dinh Tram Ca’s way of expressing his love and admiration for the woman who spends her life for her husband and children: “My wife is in the countryside. Her hometown was in Hau Giang and now it’s Soc Trang.” The author of “Country River” has two children, a boy and a girl. Dinh Tram Ca’s son also loves poetry and music, and is a student of musician Tuan Khanh “Repaying the debt of love from afar”. Quantity has no meaning in composition Compared to music, Dinh Tram Ca’s poetic heritage is more abundant. But for him, quantity has no meaning in composing: “You write poetry without a verse, a poem for people to memorize is thrown away. Making music without a song for people to sing is thrown away. ‘, the author’s point of view. In addition to poetry and music, Dinh Tram Ca also paints paintings. Did heaven favor him so much that his life must be miserable? Dinh Tram Ca denied: “I don’t dare. Until now. Now I know that I can’t do anything. This life is not mine.” What does Dinh Tram Ca want at the end of his life? “I don’t want anything,” he replied. , I just wish the “drizzle” would fly away in him like the lyrics he wrote: “Fly away the drizzle/Fly away the sorrows…”.

(Source: AFP/VNA) Italy’s antitrust agency said on May 13 that it had fined Google more than 100 million euros ($120 million) for abusing its market position by removing an app. smartphone of the opponent. In a statement, Italy’s antitrust agency said it had found Google – whose Android operating system and the Google Play app store dominates the Italian market – blocking an Enel X application for users. tram . The agency requires Google to include the Enel X application in Android Auto – a smart connection system that makes it easier and safer for car occupants to use phone features. The statement stated that a fine of 102,084,433.91 euros was imposed due to Google violates article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (EU) with respect to monopoly control and matters related to restriction of competition. Italy discovered that Google had not allowed Enel X Italia to develop a version of the JuicePass app compatible with Android Auto. The JuicePass app provides services related to vehicle charging, such as finding the nearest charging station and keeping a spot at that charging station. According to the Italian antitrust agency , by not integrating the Enel X Italia app into Android Auto, Google unfairly restricted users’ access to the Enel X Italia app when they were driving and charging the vehicle. The agency stated that Google’s above action has continued for more than two years and if it continues, this could deprive the Enel X Italia of the opportunity to build a large number of users amid rising electric car sales strong. As a result, the Italian antitrust authority asked Google to include Enel X Italia and other application developers’ application programming tools in Android Auto, and the agency would monitor Google’s compliance through an independent expert with whom Google is obligated to cooperate.

Dong Thap province implements many biodiversity conservation solutions for Tram Chim National Park Mr. Le Thanh Cu, Deputy Director of Tram Chim National Park, said: “In order to balance the ecosystem, the unit has implemented solutions to keep Melaleuca forests and grasslands in the park’s areas to attract and protect the forests. birds, especially the red-crowned crane – a rare bird named in the World Red Book and a symbol of Dong Thap province.The return of the red-crowned crane is a good sign, showing that the ecological environment for the cranes is improving Good up”. Tram Chim National Park is one of the favorite destinations of tourists near and far Landscape of Tram Chim National Park For many years, Tram Chim National Park has been visited by cranes every year, but due to the gradually changing ecological environment, fewer and fewer cranes return. Diversity of animals and plants living in Tram Chim National Park area According to statistics of Tram Chim National Park, in 1991 there were more than 1,000 red-crowned cranes, but then there were fewer and fewer. By 2017, only 3 red-crowned cranes had returned, 9 individuals in 2018 and 11 individuals in 2019. In 2020 alone, not a single red-crowned crane came here.

In the past few years, people around Tran Te Xuong street (Truc Bach ward, Ba Dinh district, Hanoi) have become accustomed to the image of a man traveling on a tram to deliver hot bowls of pho to diners. . This unique idea was devised by Mr. Nguyen Thanh The (SN 1978) – the owner of the above pho restaurant 5 years ago to save time and effort when serving customers. The electric balance bike is a favorite subject, attached to Mr. The from previous trips, so he decided to use it in his business to save time and effort. Having carried and used electric balance scooters for a long time, Mr. The has a lot of experience to control this two-wheeled vehicle. Therefore, it is not too difficult to put it into serving the pho business with a man in his 40s. In addition to serving pho, when “hands free”, he also uses electric cars to move around the shop to assist with chores such as cleaning dishes, carrying water, … Sometimes to satisfy the curiosity of customers, he also shows some movements on the tram such as turning around, wearing a wheel on his head, … The Pho restaurant has existed for more than 30 years and has a very special taste. Here, in addition to the usual types of pho, there are also beef balls, fresh encrusted, tenderloin sole that brings an attractive taste. Mr. The said, “In addition to delicious food, I want customers to remember the restaurant with a unique and enthusiastic service style, so that I can keep customers coming to me”. Some diners from far away even humorously practice with the owner and try to travel by tram. Many foreign guests also often come to enjoy this unique pho restaurant. Mr. The has never fallen and never knocked over any bowl of pho during the move. Recently, in addition to the balance electric car, I also bought myself a balance electric car with automatic mode to help me deliver pho to customers, 2 balance electric scooters become an effective “assistant” for Mr. The, both satisfying his passion, saving money on staff hire and optimizing service time.

Illustration (Source: AFP/VNA) Bitcoin digital currency has rehibilitate to around $50,000 in Asian trading on May 13, after plunging as much as 17% due to the announcement of the CEO of electric car maker Tesla, Elon Musk, on May 12 about stopping acceptance. pay in bitcoin because of concerns about the use of fossil fuels when “mining” this currency The world’s largest digital currency fell from about $54,819 to $45,700, its lowest level since March 1, just about two hours after the announcement. Mr. Musk said that Tesla will not sell any bitcoins and will keep this currency to use for transactions when bitcoin “mining” uses more sustainable energies. According to Mr. Musk, Tesla are also looking at other cryptocurrencies that use less than 1% of the energy that the coin uses bitcoin consumed. The process of “mining” bitcoin is an energy-intensive process that currently mainly depends on electricity generated from fossil fuels, especially coal. According to the most recently published figures from the University of Cambridge and the International Energy Agency, with current consumption, such bitcoin mining consumes an annual amount of energy equal to that of the Netherlands. consumed in 2019. Mr. Musk himself strongly believes in the digital currency but also in favor of clean technology. He said digital currency is a good idea and will have a promising future, but he cannot accept the big impact on the environment.

It was from a sarcastic comment of the online community on Twitter that the news that the Ford Bronco was being developed an all-electric version immediately became a phenomenon discussed on American car forums. Specifically, shortly after Ford announced the F-150 Lightning, a Tesla supporter commented asking Ford CEO Jim Farley if they are truly committed to a future centered around electric vehicles, why new product lines like Ford Bronco does not have this option? In response, the Ford leader asked this person, “Why do you think we don’t have one?”. Immediately, many American newspapers questioned the Ford spokesman, but the American brand temporarily declined to comment on the feasibility of the project. In 2018, Ford said it would have 7 electric vehicle lines launched before the end of 2022 with a commitment that electrified versions will target the best-selling car series such as Bronco, Escape, Explorer, Mustang and F. -150. Information about the Ford Bronco Hybrid, since then, has generally not been much except for a short video with the digital dashboard on the SUV showing the EV Coaching feature from last year. If Ford is still developing an electrified version of the Bronco from 2018 to now, the 2022 milestone they announced before is completely doable. Reference: Carscoops

Explaining his decision, Elon Musk expressed concern that “the use of fossil fuels for Bitcoin mining is rapidly increasing.” Elon Musk has just announced, Tesla will “pause buying cars with Bitcoin”, because of concerns that the use of fossil fuels to mine Bitcoin is increasing rapidly. (Photo: Canva) “Tesla has stopped accepting car purchases with Bitcoin. We are concerned about the rapidly increasing use of fossil fuels for Bitcoin mining and trading, especially coal. Cryptocurrency is a good idea on many levels and we believe it has a promising future, but that cannot come at a cost to the environment. Tesla will not sell any Bitcoin and we plan to use it for transactions as soon as we transition mining to more sustainable energy,” Elon Musk wrote on Twitter. The recent announcement of billionaire Elon Musk on Twitter.

Toyota Cross HV operates in the inner city of big cities in Vietnam The picture of electrified vehicles in Vietnam At the seminar on electrified vehicles in Vietnam organized by Tien Phong newspaper, sharing about the picture of electric cars in the world and Vietnam, Expert Nguyen Trung Hieu – Head of Policy Planning Department TMV said: a unit that has the conditions to participate in the research and production of electric vehicles, we have a general view of the picture of electrified cars as follows: Firstly, from the 70s of the last century, when the gasoline crisis When oil broke out, car manufacturers were forced to find a new direction, which is to find a way to replace internal combustion engine fuel. Second is the factor of climate because internal combustion engines contribute to the cause. Therefore, global warming is caused by the third is the concentration of too many vehicles using internal combustion engines, which causes air pollution, and the fourth is that along with the development of society, the technological trend is a condition. necessary to contribute to the promotion of production. Therefore, since the 70s, car manufacturers have been looking for new directions in vehicles using clean energy.” When the chairperson asked the question, is the price an important issue affecting the development of electric vehicles in Vietnam? Mr. Nguyen Trung Hieu said: the general car price includes production costs and taxes. For electric vehicles, there is a discount on prices due to the decreasing price of batteries. The second is in terms of tax, currently the Vietnamese government has preferential treatment for electric vehicles. Therefore, the factors of usage habits and some other factors are the issues that need attention. Maybe in about 5-10 years, the electric vehicle market will be doubled, tripled and the price will decrease. Currently Toyota has a full range of models, but it is only a matter of when to launch to match the status and development potential of the country. To do this is a matter of policy. In general, the picture of electric vehicles is a story of national challenges, and seizing the opportunities is a national problem. Outstanding advantages of electrified vehicles Toyota Cross uses environmentally friendly electrified vehicle technology Toyota Vietnam and Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST) have cooperated, discussed and implemented a project to monitor and evaluate the performance of gasoline cars and hybrid gasoline-electric vehicles (Hybrid) in 4 areas. factors include Fuel Consumption, Emission Level, Safety and Driving Experience under real conditions. During the period from October 23, 2020 to December 23, 2020, with test conditions including actual roads, labs and test sites in peak hours, normal hours / ring roads , radial roads, inner city roads, one-way roads, research results show that the advantages of Hybrid cars are maximum fuel savings, low exhaust levels, smooth and powerful operation, and very smooth and quiet. In particular, Hybrid cars can save fuel and reduce CO2 emissions from 1.5 to 2 times compared to conventional cars, so they are very environmentally friendly. Why is the hybrid car line suitable for the current situation in Vietnam? Sharing about why hybrid cars are suitable for Vietnam’s current situation, Mr. Mai Ngoc Tuy, Head of Technical Service Department of Toyota Motor Vietnam said, firstly, with this model, we There is no need to change the user’s usage behavior. Because the way to use this car is like using an internal combustion engine car today. Second, there is no need to invest in infrastructure, which is extremely expensive. Third, if using hybrid cars, it will have less impact on socio-economic issues. Because if using this vehicle, the gasoline supply chain will not be affected and the problem of solving social jobs will not change.

The amount raised through long-term bonds is only a small portion of the total debt that Amazon has issued, estimated at about 18.5 billion USD. The company says it can use these funds to invest in clean transportation and carbon-free buildings. Amazon’s projects will include purchasing electric vehicles for fleets, as well as other electric delivery vehicles. In addition, Amazon said it will also use electric heating and cooling systems powered by renewable energy at the company’s new headquarters in Arlington, Virginia. In one pledge, Amazon will cut all carbon emissions by 2040 and power all renewable energy operations by 2030. Amazon’s decision to raise funds for social projects comes when the company faced criticism around the labor issue. In addition to being charged with unsafe procedures and affecting employees’ health, Amazon has also been criticized for illegally firing workers and forcing them not to unionize. However, Amazon has denied these allegations and said it has always supported employees’ equal rights. According to Reuters According to Reuters

Illustration. https://kinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn The Munich-based Ifo Institute said: The German Automotive Industry Association has presented some potential challenges ahead, as the government attempts to eliminate diesel and gasoline-powered vehicles instead. for vehicles with low and zero emissions. In a statement released with the report, the research agency said: “It is estimated that about 75,000 German auto manufacturing workers will retire by the middle of this decade. But if by 2025, production of cars powered by internal combustion engines decreases to a predictable level under current emissions regulations, the shift to electric motors will have little impact. 178,000 employees ”. Ifo explains: the group that will be unemployed includes “workers producing product groups directly or indirectly dependent on internal combustion engines, with 137,000 of them working directly in the automotive industry” . “The transition to electric automation is a huge challenge, especially for automotive suppliers where mid-sized companies dominate,” said Ifo Chairman Clemens Fuest. “It is important to maintain skilled jobs in the manufacturing of internal combustion engines and electric vehicles without altering the structure,” he said. A real major transformation seems to be ahead. The German federal government has set a target of 7 to 10 million electric cars registered in the country by the end of the decade. In January, the German road traffic authority Reuters said: Battery-powered car sales were more than 194,000 vehicles by 2020, which had tripled over the same period last year. The executive branch of the EU, the European Commission wants to have at least 30 million zero-emission cars on the road by 2030 as part of the “Smart and Sustainable Mobility Strategy”. About 3 million new electric cars were registered last year, a record number and up 41% from 2019, according to the International Energy Agency. Oliver Falck, Director of the Ifo Center for New Industries and Technologies, sought to emphasize systemic change that has been and is taking place. “The evolution in production figures has shown us that very different parts are needed for electric cars rather than the internal combustion engines,” he said, noting that “this shift has yet to be reflected in the similar level in number of employees ”. https://kinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn

Squeezing on top of a decommissioned volcano in northern Nevada, workers are preparing to blast and dig holes to mine the first large-scale lithium mine in the United States in more than a decade. According to the New York Times, Lithium is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of electric car batteries and renewable energy. This lithium mine was built on federal rental land and promises to address current US dependence on international lithium supplies. However, this Lithium Americas project was strongly opposed by members of the Native American tribe, the owner of the farm and the environmental groups. The project plans to use billions of gallons of groundwater in the area. In addition, the lithium mine has the potential to pollute for up to 300 years and leave severe consequences and huge waste of waste. The conflict surrounding the Nevada mine represents a new tense problem: Electric cars and renewables may not be as green as they seem. “Blowing a mountain is not environmentally friendly, no matter how much economic expectations people put on it,” said Max Wilbert, who lives at the proposed mine. Demand soared In addition to Nevada, private businesses are proposing other lithium mining sites in California, Oregon, Tennessee, Arkansas and North Carolina. According to the Bloomberg In the first three months of 2021 alone, lithium miners in the US raised nearly $ 3.5 billion from Wall Street, seven times the amount raised in the previous 36 months. This shows that a lithium boom is exploding as the electric car industry is becoming a new trend. Lithium is used in electric car batteries because it is light, stores a lot of energy and can be recharged many times. Analysts estimate demand for lithium will increase tenfold as Tesla, Volkswagen, General Motors and other automakers launch a series of new electric cars. Blasting a mountain is not environmentally friendly, no matter how much economic expectations people place on it. Max Wilbert, a resident of the Lithium Americans mining area. Therefore, the US needs to quickly find sources of lithium when electric car manufacturers accelerate production. Although the United States has the largest lithium reserves in the world, the country has only one large-scale lithium mine, the Silver Peak mine in Nevada. Mining started in the 1960s and produces only 5,000 tons / year – less than 2% of the world’s annual supply. Most of the raw lithium used in the United States comes from Latin America or Australia, which is then processed and manufactured into batteries in China and other Asian countries. The Lithium Americas mine under construction in Nevada is estimated to have a lithium value worth $ 3.9 billion. The operator is expected to start mining operations next year. The largest shareholder of the mine is Chinese company Ganfeng Lithium. However, traditional mining is one of the most “dirty” businesses today. For electric car manufacturers and renewable energy companies, this situation has not improved much. “While its intentions are good, the need for clean energy can do harm,” said Aimee Boulanger, executive director at mining services for BMW and Ford Motor. bigger”. “Dirty” industry On a hillside, Edward Bartell and the ranchers often go out early in the morning to make sure that 500 cows roam the 50,000-acre (202 km2) desert with enough food. Faced with a lithium mining project in the area, his family has never faced such a great threat. Not far from Bartell’s farm, the largest lithium Americans project in the United States is on the horizon. Mining ore will have helipads, chemical treatment plants and waste yards with the depth of the mine up to 112 m. Traditional mines are potentially dangerous to the environment, animals and people living in the area. Photo: NYT. Producing raw materials such as lithium, cobalt and nickel often harm the soil, water resources, wildlife and people in the area. Like the competition for gold and oil in the past, governments are taking advantage of minerals to gain future economic and technological dominance. However, in the economic and technological race between great powers, environmental issues are often forgotten. What Barbell was most worried about was that the mine would consume all the water of the cattle. The mining company said the mine would consume 3,224 gallons of water per minute (equivalent to 12,204 liters / min). Thus, the groundwater level in the land where Mr. Bartell is breeding could decrease by about 3.5m. In addition, if the mine targets to produce 66,000 tons of lithium carbonate per year, this mine could cause groundwater to be contaminated with antimony metals and arsenic. Lithium is extracted by mixing clay dug from a mountain slope with 5,800 tons of sulfuric acid per day. The documents show that the entire process produces 354 million cubic meters of waste extracted from sulfuric acid treatment and can contain radioactive uranium. A December assessment by the Ministry of the Interior found that over its 41-year lifespan, the lithium mine would damage nearly 20 square kilometers of antelope and wildfowl habitat. In addition, the mine will destroy the nesting area of ​​a breed of golden eagle and other wildlife. “It was disappointing that the lithium mine was introduced as an environmentally friendly project, when in fact it was just a giant industrial park,” said Mr. Bartell. He filed a lawsuit demanding to stop mining activities. “The war is not fair” So far, the Joe Biden administration has not moved to promote more eco-friendly strategies such as extracting lithium from sea salt water instead of opencast mining. People of ethnic minorities protest outside the land management office to protest against the Lithium Americans mining project. Photo: NYT. Mining companies, meanwhile, want to speed up domestic lithium production and push the government to include a $ 10 billion funding program in the infrastructure bill. “If China severs relations with us, the US will face many difficulties,” said Ben Steinberg, an official in the Obama administration, threatened. This war is inherently unfair. After all, the mining units are just capitalists. Maxine Redstar, the leader of Fort McDermitt Paiute and the Shoshone tribe. At the Fort McDermitt Indian Reserve, controversy over the project was even more acute and led to more conflicts. The Lithium Americas mine proposes to hire tribal members as workers with an average salary of $ 62,675 / year. This salary is double the per capita income in the region, but indigenous Indians will pay a huge price for the environment and nature. “After you pollute the water here, what will we drink in the next 300 years? You’re lying!” Said Deland Hinkey, a member of the indignant tribe. Mr. Tim Crowley, vice president of Lithium Americas, pledged that the company will operate responsibly with the local environment, planning to use steam from burning molten sulfur to generate electricity, for example. However, people here still do not trust and fear that mining activities will cause serious environmental consequences. “This war is inherently unfair. After all, the mining units are just big capitalist corporations,” said Maxine Redstar, leader of Fort McDermitt Paiute and the Shoshone tribe.

Or Carmelina Beach Resort, Ho Tram Beach Boutique Resort & Spa and some of these accommodation points have been fully booked for 2 days 30/4 and 1/5, prices are also high compared to weekdays and weekends. “Enterprises have the right to decide on their own accommodation prices, state management agencies do not interfere,” said Nguyen Truong Minh Truong, Head of Tourism Development Management Department, Tourism Department of Ba Ria – Vung Tau. Zing . According to Mr. Truong, establishments need to register for the authorities 3 prices: weekdays, weekends and Tet holidays. Information must be posted at the reception where guests can observe. Accordingly, there is nothing wrong with the fact that the accommodation points increase during the peak season if they comply with the pre-registered framework. “Reservations are only available from the beginning of April” Pham Yen’s family, office staff working in Ho Chi Minh City put 2 bedrooms at the resort in Ho Tram for 3 days 2 nights for 4 people. “Initially, my family planned to spend 4 days in Phu Quoc. After considering, I decided to choose a resort near Ho Chi Minh City,” said Yen. According to Yen, the fear of crowded tourist destinations, while the epidemic is not stable, has changed the plan. “Calculated, the cost is more economical than the trip to Phu Quoc, you do not have to worry about spreading diseases while traveling by plane”. Many families choose to resort to coastal villas because of fear of disease when crowded. Photo: Quynh Danh. Many families have booked since the beginning of April because of concerns about the shortage of rooms during the holidays. Her family HM (District 7) includes 6 people, a villa in Ho Tram costs 35 million VND / night. “I booked a room at the beginning of the month to choose a beautiful house. The epidemic caused my family to hesitate to go far, rent a villa so the whole family can change the resort space, have time to gather together,” she said. Meanwhile, many visitors can not book rooms because of close contact with the ceremony. “Earlier this week, I called about 4-5 resorts in Ho Tram, but these resorts all announced their rooms or only had individual rooms on April 29, May 2, April 30 or after May 2. There is no place to book for 4 consecutive days off, “said Minh Ngoc (Thu Duc, Ho Chi Minh City).” I had to choose another option to go out to Ho Coc for 2 holidays “. The holiday season 30 / 4-1 / 5 this year falls on the weekend, so the travel demand of visitors is also higher. As noted by the reporter, at popular destinations such as Vung Tau (Ba Ria – Vung Tau), Sa Pa, Da Lat (Lam Dong) or Phu Quoc (Kien Giang) … guests have booked about one in advance. month. In many tourist destinations such as Da Lat, Da Nang, Vung Tau …, hotels and resorts have increased but still have full rooms.

The picture of electrochemical cars in the world Currently, the strong socio-economic development is leading to a skyrocketing number of vehicles, especially cars using combustion engines, which are contributing to a series of problems related to cars. environmental contamination as well as energy needs. However, the electrochemical trend is being applied more and more on vehicles, creating hybrids and electric cars, this is considered the “savior” of humanity in the future. The proof for that is that the sales of these vehicles are on the rise. According to the EV Volumes , the total volume of electric cars (EV) sold globally in 2020 will reach about 3.24 million units, reaching a market share of 4.2% and growing at 43.4% compared to 2019. Of which, 1.15 million units were produced in Europe, 0.5 million units were produced in North America and 1.6 million units were made in the Asia-Pacific region (China, Korea, Japan). The Workshop on Electrified Automotive Trends in Vietnam was recently organized by Tien Phong Newspaper. Currently, China is still the country with the top sales of electric cars in the world with 1.337 million units in 2020, an increase of 12% compared to 2019; Germany ranked second with 398 thousand units, up 254%; The US ranked third with sales of 328,000 units, up 4%. According to the share of Associate Professor – Dr. Dam Hoang Phuc (Deputy Head of Automotive Department – Hanoi University of Technology), cars with electric batteries have appeared since 1839. Over time In short development, electric cars almost disappeared due to the inability to compete with combustion engine cars in the 20th century. However, the mission of this vehicle went back into the 21st century with green cars, most economical and intelligent to protect the environment, limit dependence on fossil fuels. In addition, electric cars not only appear in people’s lives, but also present in all areas such as: Confidential military vehicles, F1 Hybrid racing cars, F1 racing for pure electric cars. Associate Professor – Dr. Dam Hoang Phuc (Deputy Head of Automotive Department – Hanoi University of Technology) gave a speech during the seminar on Electrochemical Automotive Trends in Vietnam. Meanwhile, some forecasts suggest that electric cars will account for 95% of all cars sold in Europe by 2030. Many countries in the “old continent” have set a goal to stop doing business. cars using internal combustion engines by 2050, Norway even announced it would end the sale of these cars by 2025. Developing electric cars in Vietnam needs many supportive policies According to the global trend, the Vietnamese market is also beginning to “set foot” in the electric vehicle sector with the bold direction of VinFast and some cautious moves from Toyota in the past year or so. There are no specific statistics on sales of electric vehicles (both motorcycles and cars) in Vietnam, but disclosures from industry agencies show that the number is not too much. Mr. Nguyen Van Phuong (Deputy Department of Motor Vehicle Quality – Vietnam Registry Department) shared: “In 2020, only 900 electric cars will be imported and used in Vietnam, this number is in the first three months. by 2021 there will be 600 units, however, the majority of them will still be hybrids ”. Mr. Nguyen Van Phuong (Deputy Head of Motor Vehicle Quality Division – Vietnam Registry Department). In fact, there are many opinions that “electrification is an irreversible trend, only a matter of time left”, but there are still many current problems that need to be solved to help this car thrive. more next time. On the concerned side, Mr. Phuong said: “In the new proposal to the parliament, the Ministry of Transport also mentioned tight control of environmental emissions from vehicles and will probably be seen. considered in the next National Assembly session. Regarding the control of the operation scope of all types of vehicles, it can be done, but there is no specific policy ”. Meanwhile, Ms. Nguyen Thi Xuan Thuy (Department of Industry – Ministry of Industry and Trade) replied about the electric vehicle development policy in Vietnam: “Currently, the latest automobile development strategy and planning has been approved by the government. approved in 2014. At that time there was not much appearance of electric vehicles, so there was no specific strategic plan. Electric vehicles have thrived in recent years, posing a problem that needs direction ”. Ms. Nguyen Thi Xuan Thuy (Industry Department – Ministry of Industry and Trade). It can be seen that the current policies for electric cars are not clear enough to strongly promote this industry. While many opinions suggest that the government needs to reduce tax fees for consumers to make the price of electric vehicle ownership more comfortable, manufacturers also need specific support. This is not only a policy story but also a challenge but also an opportunity for the nation. Associate Professor – Dr. Dam Hoang Phuc said: “The government needs to facilitate the development of electric vehicles by: Creating markets, expanding manufacturers, promoting manufacturers and researchers. “. At the same time, he also added: “Our country needs to apply the policy of ‘Inviting eagles to Vietnam to spawn’, which means inviting car manufacturers to produce electric cars in Vietnam”. Sharing on this issue, Mr. Nguyen Trung Hieu (Head of Strategic Planning Division of Toyota Vietnam) said: “Thailand launched its support policy in March, while Indonesia will announce its policy. strong in October, attracting many car manufacturers to invest. In fact, they have ‘finished the nest for the eagle’. Vietnam needs to do something so as not to miss this opportunity as well as this challenge. This is a story of national competition ”. Mr. Nguyen Trung Hieu (Head of Strategic Planning Department of Toyota Vietnam). Capturing the trend of electric car development will help Vietnam catch up with major markets around the world. However, the issue of supportive policies from the government needs to be resolved early to stimulate consumer demand and find a common voice with car manufacturers, helping them to no longer worry about the production of electric cars in Vietnam. Vietnam.

There are no specific statistics on sales of electric vehicles (both motorcycles and cars) in Vietnam, but disclosures from industry agencies show that the number is not too much. Mr. Nguyen Van Phuong (Deputy Department of Motor Vehicle Quality – Vietnam Registry Department) shared: “In 2020, only 900 electric cars will be imported and used in Vietnam, this number is in the first three months. by 2021 there will be 600 units, however, the majority of them will still be hybrids ”. Mr. Nguyen Van Phuong (Deputy Head of Motor Vehicle Quality Division – Vietnam Registry Department). In fact, there are many opinions that “electrification is an irreversible trend, only a matter of time left”, but there are still many current problems that need to be solved to help this car thrive. more next time. On the concerned side, Mr. Phuong said: “In the new proposal to the parliament, the Ministry of Transport also mentioned tight control of environmental emissions from vehicles and will probably be seen. considered in the next National Assembly session. Regarding the control of the operation scope of all types of vehicles, it can be done, but there is no specific policy ”. Meanwhile, Ms. Nguyen Thi Xuan Thuy (Department of Industry – Ministry of Industry and Trade) replied about the electric vehicle development policy in Vietnam: “Currently, the latest automobile development strategy and planning has been approved by the government. approved in 2014. At that time there was not much appearance of electric vehicles, so there was no specific strategic plan. Electric vehicles have thrived in recent years, posing a problem that needs direction ”. Ms. Nguyen Thi Xuan Thuy (Industry Department – Ministry of Industry and Trade). It can be seen that the current policies for electric cars are not clear enough to strongly promote this industry. While many opinions suggest that the government needs to reduce tax fees for consumers to make the price of electric vehicle ownership more comfortable, manufacturers also need specific support. This is not only a policy story but also a challenge but also an opportunity for the nation. Associate Professor – Dr. Dam Hoang Phuc said: “The government needs to facilitate the development of electric vehicles by: Creating markets, expanding manufacturers, promoting manufacturers and researchers. “. At the same time, he also added: “Our country needs to apply the policy of ‘Inviting eagles to Vietnam to spawn’, which means inviting car manufacturers to produce electric cars in Vietnam”. Sharing on this issue, Mr. Nguyen Trung Hieu (Head of Strategic Planning Division of Toyota Vietnam) said: “Thailand launched its support policy in March, while Indonesia will announce its policy. strong in October, attracting many car manufacturers to invest. In fact, they have ‘finished the nest for the eagle’. Vietnam needs to do something so as not to miss this opportunity as well as this challenge. This is a story of national competition ”. Mr. Nguyen Trung Hieu (Head of Strategic Planning Department of Toyota Vietnam). Capturing the trend of electric car development will help Vietnam catch up with major markets around the world. However, the issue of supportive policies from the government needs to be resolved early to stimulate consumer demand and find a common voice with car manufacturers, helping them to no longer worry about the production of electric cars in Vietnam. Vietnam.

The Boring Company tunnel is said to be the solution to solving the problem of traffic congestion in the future. The first tunnel about to open is nearly 1.3 km long with 3 stops, can carry 4,400 passengers per hour. Because the length of the tunnel is quite short, the speed of the Tesla operation will be limited to about 56-64 km / h and still have to have a driver behind the wheel, not activated in autonomous mode. It is expected that until the end of this year, Tesla electric cars will be allowed to use Autopilot mode when operating underneath the tunnel. The commissioning of the first underground tunnel system is clearly the important step forward for The Boring Company, to realize their ambition to revolutionize the way people move in the future. hybrid. When there are many active tunnels, a network of underground traffic will form. On the ground there will be stations to bring Tesla cars underground. Then, just turn on autonomous mode and the Tesla car can drive itself to the desired location below the tunnel and be brought back to the ground by the elevator.

Term 2: Solve the quality management problem, electric vehicle regulations Electric vehicle charging station at AEON Ha Dong Shopping Center (Hanoi) – photo by Thanh Tung With more than 1 million electric scooters in circulation and thousands of electric cars handed over to customers by VinFast by the end of this year, the problem of quality management, registration, and charging station standards comes from The legal regulations in the circulation of vehicles for electric vehicles are in urgent need. Register like a traditional car At the end of March 2021, VinFast’s electric bus model was completed by the Vietnam Registry Department to verify design documents, vehicle safety testing and met the conditions of current automotive technical regulations. onions for mass production. Recently, VinFast has also announced to receive orders, produce an electric car model under 9 seats under the brand name VF e34, expected to hand over the car to customers in November 2021. In fact, electric cars have appeared in the country a few years ago and now there are 14 cars (all imported complete units, the Tesla brand). With the above trend, in the near future, the domestic market will have both imported CBU electric cars and domestically produced cars. Mr. Nguyen Van Phuong, Deputy Department of Motor Vehicle Quality – VAQ (Vietnam Registry Department), said that electric vehicles are quality controlled from the evaluation of vehicle design, safety testing to issue type certificates. and sample production. After the car is released, the circulation process, electric cars must be periodically registered as traditional cars. According to Mr. Dang Tran Khanh, Deputy Department of Motor Vehicle Inspection – VAR (Vietnam Registry Department), the biggest difference between electric cars and gasoline and oil cars is the energy source for the vehicle’s engine to operate. Therefore, the registry will apply the inspection of technical safety items according to the current national automotive technical regulations, except for the exhaust gas test, which will not be the same as gasoline or oil vehicles. “Currently, some countries like Singapore also test electric cars like conventional cars. However, the Vietnam Registry Department is consulting the experiences of countries and international automobile registration associations to take steps to research and prepare for the process of supplementing and completing the standards of cars, including cars. electricity ”, said Mr. Khanh. Which standard charging station? According to a recent study by the Research Group of the German International Cooperation Organization (GIZ), it is currently the beginning stage of the development of electric transportation in Vietnam. Imported electric vehicles including bicycles, electric scooters and four-wheeled passenger electric vehicles currently have more than 1 million vehicles. It is expected that by the end of 2021, there will be only electric cars produced domestically. About the current regulations applicable to electric cars, the representative of the Motor Vehicle Testing Center (Vietnam Registry Department) said that in-depth techniques for electric cars are electrical elements. There are a number of different research and development trends in the world. ” Electric car is still a manned car like a conventional internal combustion engine, so when the car is put into operation at present, there are no legal problems. Electric vehicle drivers, while participating in traffic in Vietnam, still comply with the current Decree 100 and the Law on Road Traffic
Decree 100 deals with the driver’s behavior more than the vehicle. And the current Law on Road Vehicle has regulations on vehicles, but in road motor vehicles, there is no regulation on engines. Therefore, the legal basis for electric vehicles is basically the same as conventional gasoline and oil vehicles, including procedures for vehicle registration and vehicle registration.
Mr. Khuat Viet Hung, Specialized Vice President of National Traffic Safety Committee ” Such as the standard of charging. Therefore, in this early stage, mainly based on the National Technical Regulation on technical safety quality and environmental protection for cars (QVN 09: 2015 / BGTVT) to test and evaluate. vehicle safety prices. At the same time, there is research to build appropriate standards for the development of electric cars in the country in the future. According to Mr. Nguyen Van Khoi, Director of the Department of Standards (General Department of Standards, Metrology and Quality), Vietnam currently has the standard TCVN 12241-3: 2018 on the secondary lithium-ion battery used for power transmission. for electric road vehicles. This International Standard specifies test procedures and acceptance criteria for the safety performance of batteries and masses of secondary lithium-ion batteries used to power road vehicles (EV). including battery electric vehicles (BEV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). “However, we do not have a set of standards (required to apply) on charging stations and charging terminals. This is not even available in advanced countries. Just like the plug of household electrical appliances has not been agreed, where the power supply is 110V, where 220V, the device has a 3-pin or 2-pin plug, but the 2-pin plug is also each style. In addition, the structure of the electric vehicle charging station is also a technology secret issue, so no company wants to share it, so it has not been agreed to set which one is the standard. For example, the phone charger, until now it has been agreed, to buy any device, use the charger cord, the charger of that company, basically according to the original equipment manufacturer “, Mr. Khoi said. Just as a car powered by an internal combustion engine needs multiple gas stations, an electric vehicle (EV) also needs multiple public charging stations. The question is which technology standard charging station will Vietnam follow in order to be able to meet the maximum number of electric vehicles with different charging standards? According to Mr. Dao Cong Quyet, Head of the Public Relations Subcommittee of VAMA, there are currently 3 international charging standards for cars, including: Europe (CCS), Japan (CHAdeMO) and China (GB / T). ). If there are many electric car manufacturers, it is also necessary to have a common standard for the car manufacturers to plan to manufacture and import this type of vehicle for sale in Vietnam. Mr. Tran Quang Ha, Deputy Director of the Department of Science and Technology (Ministry of Transport), said that the charging standards of many basic companies according to Europe, but most of them do not have the uniformity of the common charging standard between the companies. Currently, road motor vehicles in Vietnam are basically all according to European standards. On the issue of waste disposal for electric vehicles, Mr. Ha informed that most countries have strict and strict regulations on waste product management. As for the discarded products containing harmful substances such as batteries and batteries, Vietnam has also had regulations but there are no sanctions. “When electric vehicles thrive, the problem of completing regulations on waste management and treatment such as batteries, batteries will be very hot. There should be clear sanctions “, Mr. Ha suggested.

On April 19, a woman who claimed to be a Tesla customer climbed onto the roof of a Tesla car at a Shanghai auto show. She wears a T-shirt with the words “brake not working”. Tesla car owners in China have been complaining about brakes on social media for months. The Shanghai police identified the woman named Zhang and said she was sentenced to 5 days in prison for disturbing public order. Tesla is constantly in trouble in the Chinese market. Photo: Reuters. The three lessons of Tesla Tesla accused the woman of being involved in a “speed violation” collision in February. During two months of negotiations, she refused to have a third party inspect it but demanded a refund for the car. Reply to the magazine Caijing Tesla China Vice President Tao Lin revealed that the woman was demanding high compensation and the company had no reason to pay. In a post on Weibo, Tesla claims not to compromise with “unreasonable requests”. After that, state media and government agencies quickly reprimanded Tesla. State news agencies publish a series of editorials. The Chinese government’s Central Disciplinary Committee also issued a warning statement. An article titled “Three Lessons Tesla must learn” advised the American electric car maker to respect the Chinese consumer market. “The arrogant and bossy attitude that the company shows in public is deplorable and unacceptable. This could seriously damage the company’s reputation and customer base in the Chinese market, “said the report. The Hoan Cau Times criticize. Tesla apologized for failing to promptly address the vehicle owner’s problems. The billion-dollar country is an important market for Tesla. Photo: Reuters. In posts on Weibo, Tesla said it was “ready to cooperate with the authorities”. The company claims to “self-check and fix to fix” problems in the customer service process. Tesla expanded its market share to 1.4 billion people over the past two years. With the support of the Beijing government, Tesla built a large factory in Shanghai in 2019. Last year, Model 3 cars produced at this factory began to be delivered to customers. Tesla’s sales in China have more than doubled by 2020. The Model 3 is the best-selling electric vehicle in the billion-population market. Tighten control CEO Elon Musk even met Chinese Premier Li Keqiang in 2019. But success always comes with attention, especially as Chinese homegrown companies are looking for a foothold in the market. This country’s electric car school. China’s favorable policies for the electric car industry spurred the birth of startups like Nio and Xpeng Motors. These businesses did not hide their ambition to compete with Tesla, although sales were still far behind. “The leading company brings a lot of benefits to China. But when that company dominates the market, it no longer benefits Beijing,” said Bill Russo, founder and CEO of private companies. Investment, Automobility Limited, commented. Companies like Daimler’s Volkswagen and Mercedes have been under similar scrutiny in the past, he said. The leading company brings many benefits to China. But when that company dominates the market, it no longer benefits Beijing Bill Russo, CEO of Automobility Limited Negative news about Tesla has increased in China over the past months. In early 2021, a Tesla Model 3 is believed to have exploded in a Shanghai garage. According to a post in state media, there are at least 10 reports in 2020 of Tesla drivers being unable to control the vehicle. On April 13, on Dongjiang Avenue (Guangzhou), a Tesla caught fire after colliding with a roadblock and another vehicle, leading to the death of a passenger. After the incident, some Tesla owners said they were prevented from driving on highways. Chinese police appear to be blocking all Tesla vehicles from running on the highway because of safety concerns. On March 19, the news agency Bloomberg citing some sources about the Chinese military’s claim that omnidirectional cameras and ultrasonic sensors on Tesla vehicles could reveal the location. A Twitter account posted a picture with the caption: “In Guangzhou, #Tesla trams are not allowed to travel on highways”. Photo: Twitter. Therefore, the ban on the company’s vehicles to ensure the security of military information. All Tesla car users were required to park outside military complexes. In February, the China Market Administration (SAMR) met with Tesla’s subsidiaries to discuss vehicle quality. The agency’s statement on April 21 showed that they were very concerned about the incident at the Shanghai auto show. SAMR also directs local regulators to strengthen the protection of consumers’ interests. Billionaire Musk is looking for a way. In March, in an interview with state television CCTV China’s future “is going to be great,” he said, and that the country is “the biggest market” for Tesla.

Instead of riding his 1967 Corvette Sting Ray, US President Joe Biden took the time to take an online tour of the electric bus factory and the electric vehicle battery factory on April 20. . This is considered an important activity in his plan to boost production of electric vehicles in the future. Mr. Biden visited the electric bus factory online. (Photo: Hot Cars) From working in the White House, Mr. Biden had a live view of the production of electric buses at the Proterra factory in Greenville, South Carolina. President Biden is particularly interested in how the buses are assembled and tested and is impressed with the progress here. “Right now, we (the United States) are behind China and there is much more work to be done. But we will become the most important supplier of electric buses and electric cars in the world with different things,” General said the US governor Joe Biden. Mr. Biden’s factory visit is done online, but experts consider it a very serious move and is part of the Government’s plan to promote the production of public transport powered by green energy. America. According to Hot Cars page, the US President’s declaration of “join the game” means that America must surpass China, which currently dominates the electric bus market. According to Biden’s roadmap, all US-made buses will be “completely green” by 2030. Proterra also estimates that half of the buses will be electrified by 2025. Students in the US mainly use the bus to get to school. (Photo: Hot Cars) Spend $ 20 billion to exchange electric buses for schools The aforementioned American bus electrification roadmap is not without foundation. Earlier, in early April, Mr. Biden announced the Huge Infrastructure Bill with a financial plan worth more than $ 2 trillion. This budget proposal includes items with many different packages. Worth noting is the $ 174 billion electric vehicle development package. In which the Government allocated 20 billion dollars to convert at least 20% of school buses in the United States to electric power. The rest of the buses will have to be changed by the schools through tightened policies. At least $ 20 billion will be spent by the US on converting to electric buses by 2030. (Image: Hot Cars) Additionally, an additional $ 25 billion will be spent converting public transport from internal combustion engines to electric. At the same time the US will spend up to 100 billion dollars on the policy to reduce prices to pull customers to buy more electric cars. With strong determination from the electrification of public transport, Mr. Biden has demonstrated a commitment to cutting greenhouse gas emissions. This also brings health benefits for people, especially students who regularly use buses to go to school. And most of all, Mr. Biden wants to reaffirm America’s position in the production of electric cars, including electric buses. Outstanding and behind China is difficult to accept.
