Recently, the Establishment Ceremony of the Road Construction & Maintenance Machinery Branch Committee and the Annual Conference of the Road Construction & Maintenance Machinery Branch of China Construction Machinery Association was held at Yuchai. Hosted by China Construction Machinery Association, organized by its Road Construction & Maintenance Machinery Branch and co-organized by Yuchai, the event saw an address delivered by Tan Guirong, Deputy General Manager of Yuchai Co., Ltd.
Centered on the theme of "Digital & Intelligent Leadership, Power Revolution, Green Priority", the conference featured industry reports, keynote speeches, roundtable discussions and factory tours. It brought together experts, scholars, enterprise representatives and industry elites across China's road construction and maintenance machinery sector to explore new paths and opportunities for industrial transformation and upgrading.
In his speech, Tan Guirong stated that road construction and maintenance machinery are frontline practitioners underpinning the development of a powerful transportation nation. Customer demands for power systems have shifted from higher horsepower to better scenario adaptability, faster response and worry-free performance over the whole lifecycle. Yuchai is committed to being the most reliable power partner for the road construction and maintenance industry. Wherever roads are built, Yuchai power will follow; wherever the industry heads, Yuchai will take the lead.
During the conference, Yuchai delivered a keynote report themed "Key Pathways for New-energy Transition of Road Construction & Maintenance Machinery - Value and Boundaries of Hybrid Power Technology". Targeting typical operating conditions of such machinery including low speed with high torque, frequent start-stop cycles and prolonged idling, the report systematically analyzed the merits of hybrid power technology in fuel saving, carbon reduction, operation adaptability and whole-life-cycle cost, while objectively defining its applicable scope. It presents Yuchai's solution for the industry's technology route selection.
Going forward, Yuchai will continue to deepen research on hybrid power and other new-energy technologies, accelerate the deployment of digital, intelligent and green power products. Leveraging its global service network, Yuchai will collaborate with all partners along the industrial chain to deliver dependable power for the high-quality development of the road construction and maintenance machinery industry.
