1、 Analysis of global natural gas vehicle development （1） Development and application of global natural gas vehicles Since the world's first CNG car came out in 1931, after more than 60 years, the global number of natural gas vehicles reached 1million in 1997. Since then, natural gas vehicles have entered a period of rapid development. According to the statistics of the International Association of natural gas vehicles (IANGV), the global number of natural gas generator vehicles and filling stations reached 11.356 million (more than 10million for the first time) and 16513 in 2009; In 2012, it reached 16.733 million vehicles and 21292 seats, an increase of 47.3% and 28.9% over 2009, with an average annual growth of 13.8% and 8.8% respectively. In 2103, the total number of natural gas vehicles in the world increased to 18.09 million, of which 15.55 million were in the top ten countries, accounting for 86% of the global total. According to the prediction of IANGV, by 2020, the number of natural gas vehicles in the world will reach 65million. （2） Characteristics of development and application of natural gas vehicles in the world 1. The main body of global natural gas vehicles is passenger cars. According to the statistics of gvR, in 2012, there were 15.8751 million cars and light trucks in the global natural gas vehicles, accounting for 92.13%; 703900 medium and heavy buses, accounting for 4.09%; 36.88 medium and heavy trucks, accounting for 2.14%; 282600 other vehicles, accounting for 1.64%. It can be concluded that the main structure of global natural gas vehicles is mainly cars, including taxis, followed by buses. Limited by the number and layout of gas stations, there are few long-distance buses. 2. Natural gas vehicles are mainly concentrated in developing countries. The technical level of developing countries in the field of natural gas vehicles generally lags behind that of developed countries, but its popularization and application is ahead. The top 10 countries in the global natural gas vehicle ownership in 2013 are all developing countries except Italy; The nine developing countries have a total of 14.73 million natural gas vehicles, accounting for 81.43% of the total global ownership; In particular, the top five countries (Iran, Pakistan, Argentina, Brazil and China) have 11.9 million natural gas vehicles, accounting for 65.78% of the global total. The total volume of global automobile is mainly concentrated in developed countries, but the total volume of natural gas automobile is mainly concentrated in developing countries. This shows that developing countries attach much more importance to and demand for natural gas vehicles than developed countries. 3. Asia Pacific and South America have the fastest development of natural gas vehicles. The development of natural gas vehicles originated in Europe in the 1930s. The Asia Pacific and South America regions generally entered around the 1960s-1980s and accelerated their development at the beginning of the 21st century, but they came from behind. In 2013, among the top 10 countries with global natural gas vehicle ownership, 6 countries in the Asia Pacific region (Iran, Pakistan, China, India, Uzbekistan and Thailand) had a total of 10.24 million vehicles, accounting for 56.6% of the global total; There are 4.49 million vehicles in the three countries in South America (Argentina, Brazil and Colombia), accounting for 24.8% of the world total. 4. Developed countries have advanced natural gas vehicle technology and backward ownership. For example, the United States, Canada, Germany, Japan and other countries have the world's advanced R & D and manufacturing technologies for natural gas vehicles, natural gas engines, filling stations and other equipment, but the number of natural gas vehicles is very small. According to the statistics of IANGV, the number of natural gas vehicles, gas filling stations and natural gas vehicles in the world in 2012 ranked the 18th in the United States with 127735 vehicles and 1120 seats; Germany ranks 19th with 95498 vehicles and 915 seats; Japan ranks 24th with 42590 vehicles and 314 seats; Canada ranks 29th with 12500 vehicles and 47 seats. The development and application of natural gas vehicles in countries around the world are different, but there are two obvious characteristics: first, the development and application of natural gas vehicles are closely related to the fiscal, tax and natural gas price incentive policies adopted by the government. If the incentive policies are strong and adhered to, natural gas vehicles will develop rapidly; If the encouragement policy is wavering, the development of natural gas vehicles will fluctuate. If the incentive policy is weakened or stopped, natural gas vehicles will be difficult to develop, or even shrink or stagnate. Second, all countries give priority to natural gas buses and taxis.
