Zero-Carbon Intelligent Logistics Park in Hami Powers Electric Trucks with Novel Battery Swapping Technology

Hami, the key hub for the eastward transport of Xinjiang coal and the outward transmission of Xinjiang electricity, has taken a significant step towards reducing carbon emissions with the operation of two heavy-duty truck charging and battery swapping stations in its first zero-carbon intelligent logistics park. The stations, built by Shanghai Qiyuan Green Power Technology Co., Ltd., utilize novel battery swapping technology to provide quick charging services for electric tractor trucks, fully charging a truck in as short as 3.5 minutes. This innovative technology not only supports the construction of the first intelligent logistics park in Hami but also enables year-round all-weather operation in the region.

Key Takeaways:

• The two heavy-duty truck charging and battery swapping stations are located in Huayuan Township Intelligent Logistics Park in Yizhou District, Hami City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
• The stations provide quick charging and battery swapping services for 100 electric tractor trucks shuttled between open-pit coal mines, a coal power company, and a freight station.
• The M8 type fabricated modular heavy-duty truck charging and battery swapping stations incorporate novel battery swapping technology, enabling a heavy-duty truck to be fully charged in as short as 3.5 minutes by QR code scanning.
• The stations are adaptable to over 600 models (more than 84%) of battery swapping heavy-duty trucks on the market and are highly resistant to strong wind, earthquake, and low temperature.
• Hami is planning to build an integrated zero-carbon intelligent logistics park that combines various clean energy supplies, energy replenishing modes, and intelligent transport modes.
• The charging and battery swapping stations will support the construction of the first intelligent logistics park in Hami with their 'green advantage' in pure electric power and zero emission, as well as their intelligent operation throughout the whole process.

Statistics:

• The two heavy-duty truck charging and battery swapping stations can fully charge a heavy-duty truck in as short as 3.5 minutes.
• The stations are adaptable to over 600 models (more than 84%) of battery swapping heavy-duty trucks on the market.
• Hami is located in the easternmost part of Xinjiang, a key hub for the eastward transport of Xinjiang coal and the outward transmission of Xinjiang electricity.
• The stations will support the construction of the first intelligent logistics park in Hami by leveraging their 'green advantage' in pure electric power and zero emission, as well as their intelligent operation throughout the whole process.
