摘要
进入21世纪以来,全球主要国家和地区的天然气汽车市场快速发展并已初具规模。截至2008年,全世界天然气汽车保有量已超过940万辆,加气站1.4万座以上,主要分布在富气贫油和环保法规严格的国家。全球车用天然气消费量占天然气消费总量的比重仍然很低,2008年约为0.69%。尽管世界总体天然气汽车市场发展势头良好,但各主要地区的发展情况差异较大。在拉美、亚太和中东地区持续快速增长的同时,北美地区天然气汽车市场的发展却出现波折。在天然气汽车市场发展过程中,天然气价格、基础设施建设、资源保障、汽车技术的革新以及价格、税收方面的政策优惠等因素都将长期产生影响,尤其是在天然气汽车市场的起步阶段。
Under the dual priorities of energy security and environment protection, the natural gas vehicle (NGV) market in major countries and regions in the world has developed quickly. By 2008 the number of natural gas vehicles in use worldwide had exceeded 9.4 million while the number of filling stations exceeded 14,000, located mainly in gas-rich but oil-poor countries and countries with strict environmental protection regulations. However, vehicles' share of global natural gas consumption has remained low, at around 0.69% in 2008. In spite of the positive momentum of overall natural gas vehicle market development, the status of development differs considerably among major regions. While the market in Latin America, Asia Pacific and the Middle East continues to grow rapidly, the North American market has encountered twists and turns in its development. Development of the natural gas vehicle market will be influenced in the long run by such factors as natural gas price, infrastructure construction, resource supply, new automotive technology and policy incentives in pricing and taxation, especially if they occur at the initial stages of the natural gas vehicle market.
