政府擬在2035年前淘汰燃油私家車,而電動車普及,其舊電池如何處理亦備受關注。港燈研發將電動車舊電池改裝成獨立後備電源,可加裝在大廈電掣房內作後備系統,抵銷電壓驟降,從而預防困;舊電池亦可拆細成「可移動電源」,在地盤為電鑽等手提工具充電。港燈稱,經改造後的電動車舊電池可續用多至少5年,賦予舊電池第二次生命。

九巴車隊目前擁有的巴士總數逾4,000架,當中僅得14架是電動巴士。為配合政府2050年前達致車輛零排放的目標,九巴車務策劃部主管梁領彥表示,九巴會陸續將車隊改為電動車車隊。他指,去年購置的16部單層電動巴士,預料今年付運;九巴又計劃訂購42架雙層電動巴士,目前已開始招標程序,估計2022年九巴及龍運整個集團共有80架電動巴。

一直以來,總有不少初創車廠發表號稱最平的電動車,但遲遲未見身影,如今 Dacia 則真正推出 Spring EV 小型城市電動車,在德國入手價只需 12,220 歐元(即約 HK$111,783)。
Dacia 是一家羅馬尼亞車廠,大家可能不太認識,其實它屬於雷諾 (Renault)旗下,專門主打入門車。這款 Spring EV 車身尺寸為 3,734mm、闊 1,579mm、高 1,488 mm,與大家在街上常見的 1,500cc 揭背車差不多,而車入設採用 4 座位設定,顯然是為城市代步而設。

環境局上周三(3月17日)發表首份《香港電動車普及路線圖》(下稱《路線圖》),訂下在2025年前提供至少15.5萬個充電設施、在2035年前停止新登記燃油私家車的宏遠目標。然而,對比特區政府過去十年的綠化步伐,至今只有1.85萬輛電動私家車和4,500個充電站,僅僅達到2011年《香港規劃標準與準則》所訂定目標的一成,難免令人擔心《路線圖》亦會再次落空。綜觀《路線圖》政策細節,再回望特區政府推廣電動車之路,當中同樣暴露三大施政弊端,包括政策離地、規劃短視、當局未能以身作則。不難預見,如果「小政府」思維不改,綠色交通仍會遙遙無期。

港府希望在2050年前達至碳中和,有消息指政府有意於2040年前停售燃油私家車,並要求所有新落成大廈設有電動車相關裝置。有業界人士認為,政策方向正確,有助推動電動車在港普及,惟進程緩慢,且如何執行才是關鍵。
即使政府曾以各類津貼、稅務優惠鼓勵買家,以及發展商加設充電設施,但電動車相關配套依然不足。政府有意推出新一輪的電動車政策,並以加設基建設施為方向。
香港電動車業總商會理事會員陳冠東博士指,雖未有收到正式通知,但政府曾向該會諮詢。他樂見政府踏出第一步,制定停售燃油車的時間表及整體藍圖,惟認為目標訂於2040年稍為緩慢,「比其他地方遲10年」。按燃油車壽命及市場周期,最快亦要50年後才可見電動車全面普及。

環境局日前公布首份《香港電動車普及化路線圖》,目標2025年有超過15萬個車位設充電設施。但政府早年透過樓面面積寬免,鼓勵發展商提供充電泊位,政策卻無強制駁電,令多個停車場充電泊位僅是「裝假狗」;政府去年起資助現有屋苑安裝充電基礎設施,有業主亦坦言難以墊支昂貴工程費用放棄參加計劃。

為實現2050年本港達致碳中和,政府於3月17日推出首份《香港電動車普及化路線圖》,措施包括大幅增加充電設施,預計在2025年,全港充電設施會增至15.5萬個,並會在同年開始在政府停車場徵收充電費。然而,有業界人士批評政府推出的措施含糊,未有實際細節,憂慮充電數量未能達標,變相打壓汽車增長。有電動車車主亦指,政府在新措施上把設置充電權交予業主立案法團,但現實上面對很多掣肘。

The Government today (March 17) announced the Hong Kong Roadmap on Popularisation of Electric Vehicles, setting out the long-term policy objectives and plans to promote the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and their associated supporting facilities in Hong Kong.
Announcing the Roadmap today, the Secretary for the Environment, Mr Wong Kam-sing, said, “We have formulated our first Hong Kong Roadmap on Popularisation of EVs, which will guide Hong Kong’s future direction to attain zero vehicular emissions before 2050. This acts in concert with our other target to strive for carbon neutrality in the same time frame, and forges ahead with the vision of ‘Zero Carbon Emissions‧Clean Air‧Smart City’.”
Electric private cars
No new registration of fuel-propelled private cars including hybrid vehicles in 2035 or earlier
Electric commercial vehicles
Promote trials for electric public transport and commercial vehicles including buses, public light buses, taxis and goods vehicles, with a view to setting a concrete way forward and a timetable around 2025
Charging network
Expand the EV charging network on all fronts and marketise charging services progressively
Maintenance services
Promote education and training for technicians and mechanics on EV maintenance
Battery recycling
Strive to legislate a producer responsibility scheme for retired EV batteries in the next few years, and promote green technologies of second-life applications of EV batteries
Innovation and co-operation
Multi-pronged approach to create a conducive environment for the popularisation of EVs. This includes establishing a task force to examine the high-end development of new decarbonisation technology globally, the $200 million Green Tech Fund to fund the research and development of green technologies, making good use of development in technologies including the Internet of Things, big data and artificial intelligence, and seizing opportunities to be brought about by the EV technological development in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, etc
“As EV technologies are rapidly evolving, we will review the various strategies and targets of the Roadmap around every five years. Taking into account new technological, environmental, social and economic development and situations, we will adjust in time Hong Kong’s policies and measures in promoting EVs, ensuring that we keep up with the times,” Mr Wong said.
Mr Wong expressed sincere gratitude to different stakeholders for sharing their views on the directions and measures to be included in the Roadmap in the past year, especially the members of the Steering Committee on the Promotion of Electric Vehicles led by the Financial Secretary, who have provided much valuable advice on the strategies and measures regarding the popularisation of EVs. Looking ahead, the Government will continue to collaborate with different sectors in society to drive the popularisation of EVs, making Hong Kong a liveable, green and smart city.
The Hong Kong Roadmap on Popularisation of Electric Vehicles and its leaflet are available on the Environmental Protection Department website.
