优品车与SUSCO成立合资公司,在泰国开启换电业务

EQS 新闻 via SEAPRWire.com / 2025-03-26 / 09:00 UTC+8 合作将涉及近千座加油站 年收益有望达到1亿美金 近日,全球换电科技第一股、纳斯达克上市企业(NASDAQ:UCAR)优品车集团旗下泰国子公司“U SWAP”与泰国头部上市能源公司SUSCO Public正式签署战略合资协议,双方将依托双方优势资源,在泰国积极推动电动汽车智能换电模式的落地。这一合资协议的签署标志着中国开创的电动汽车换电模式首次在全球海外市场获得规模化认可,同时也预示着海外传统能源行业对智能换电模式的引入,必将大力推动电动汽车相关产业进入新的发展阶段! SUSCO将采用UOTTA换电技术,打造泰国换电网络 在签约仪式现场,SUSCO业务负责人透露,双方成立的合资公司将采用优品车的“UOTTA”换电技术,陆续在SUSCO旗下覆盖全泰近千座加油站的网络中投资建设不同类型的换电设施,为全泰国的出租车、网约车、巴士及物流卡车提供快速、高效的换电服务。预计每座换电站平均每天可服务50-120台车次,未来年收益有望达到1亿美元。该负责人还介绍到,换电业务可以解决运输行业客户对电动汽车充电效率与电池性能衰减的担忧,同时具备显著的车辆运营成本的优势,将大力促进行业客户对电动汽车的选择。 泰国电动汽车市场前景广阔 泰国政府近年来大力推动电动汽车产业发展,出台了一系列激励政策。根据泰国最新的“EV 3.5”政策,2024年至2027年期间,电动汽车将享受购车补贴、税收减免等优惠措施。例如,价格低于200万泰铢的电动汽车可获得最高10万泰铢的补贴,消费税也从8%降至2%。此外,泰国政府还计划到2030年实现电动车占汽车总销量的30%,并将大力推动充换电基础设施的建设。在泰国电动汽车发展政策的强势驱动下,优品车与SUSCO的合资公司,将专注于泰国新能源基础设施投建运营的全泰项目,必将迎来绝佳的市场机遇。 优品车集团董事局联席董事长、正大集团家族第三代成员、全球财富媒体集团“Fortune 500”董事局主席谢展先生也参与了此次SUSCO与优品车的合资合作。从纳斯达克的公开信息中可以了解到,谢展先生以个人投资者身份对优品车及重大项目进行了多次战略投资,在双方集团管理团队、战略投资人和本地合作伙伴的大力支持下,合资公司也会竭力推动覆盖全泰的“光储充换”产业及电池标准化,助力电动汽车及新能源产业在泰国市场的高速发展。 换电模式有望在东南亚及香港迎来更多发展机遇 此次优品车与SUSCO在换电领域的合资合作,表明东南亚新能源市场进入一个新的发展阶段。据相关人士介绍,虽然电动汽车有很多优点,但在东南亚地区,因为电网建设一直落后于经济发展,无法承担公路商业运输快充网的电力负荷,要实现电动汽车的大规模发展,换电模式是解决这一问题的关键路径。 优品车集团创始人兼联席董事长Johnny Lee先生在签约仪式现场谈到:“光储充换作为新能源基础设施和产业链条,是推动海外新能源产业发展的基础和必要条件,优品车集团及合资公司愿与全球新能源产业合作伙伴一起、包括不限于电池企业、整车企业、零部件企业、绿色金融等上下游伙伴,充分整合与共享产业资源,大力推动中国新能源产业的出海,共建共享产业生态!” 除东南亚地区外,香港政府公布的《香港电动车普及化路线图》同样为优品车的电动车换电业务发展带来机遇。优品车香港及大湾地区负责人表示将在香港积极布局电动车换电市场,顺应香港政府推动电动车普及、实现零碳排放、清新空气及智慧城市的愿景,抢先将先进的电动车换电技术与换电站运营模式引入香港商用电动车市场,如的士、客货车、小巴、公共巴士、旅游大巴和重型货车等市场;同时,优品车将与公营及私营的交通、物流和运输机构建立战略联盟,拓展换电站的运营及管理业务。 此外,优品车将根据香港市场需求,与国际知名电动车品牌合作,引入多款型号电动车,并考虑将其换电研发部门延伸至香港科学园及河套深港科技创新合作区,借助香港国际金融中心的优势,构建换电及电池金融平台,并积极探索加密资产与换电产业的融合。优品车作为一家新一代绿色智能能源电网创新企业,集团还计划为机场、货柜码头和大型物流仓库提供定制化的换电充电解决方案,并配合国家清洁能源及碳中和大方向,引进光伏储能与充换电一体化服务站,力争成为香港首个绿色能源综合体。 2025-03-26 此财经新闻稿由EQS Group via SEAPRWire.com转载。本公告内容由发行人全权负责。原文链接: http://www.todayir.com/sc/index.php

Asia’s airports take the lead at inter airport Southeast Asia 2025 kicks off the conference, driving conversations on the future of airport operations and passenger experience

Set to welcome 4,000 airport professionals, 150 international exhibitors, 4 dynamic pavilions, and 53 speakers from 66 countries and regions, IASEA 2025 is poised to shape the future of airport operations and passenger experience throughout the next 3 daysSINGAPORE, Mar 25, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The much-anticipated inter airport Southeast Asia (IASEA) 2025 has officially opened today at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, bringing together key airport industry stakeholders, global solution providers, and leading experts to shape the future of airport operations and passenger experience.Themed “Airport Operations for Tomorrow”, conversations surrounding these topics are especially crucial as the aviation industry is witnessing rapid transformation and projected global passenger traffic to reach 19.5 billion by 2042.Day 1 morning highlights: Keynotes and expert insightsThe opening day of IASEA 2025 set an exciting tone with thought-provoking discussions and visionary insights from industry leaders. The fireside chat on 'Reshaping Global Airport Operations', led by Patrick Ky, CEO, International Centre for Aviation Innovation (ICAI) and moderated by Glory Wee, Senior Director, Aviation Development Group, Civil Aviation Authority Singapore (CAAS), discussed the fundamental shift they anticipate airport operations will face and how airports must evolve to balance the imperatives of efficiency, resilience, and sustainability. When asked to share one game-changing technology that will redefine the industry, Patrick Ky shared that “innovation that drives data sharing will be key”, but that would require many regulatory aspects and willingness from airports to share with each other. This would take time, but it is key to building a stronger future. “It is clear from our discussion that in order to reshape airport operations, it is not just about technological advancements but also about setting standards, data integrity, collaborations, and sharing best practices. Above all, the industry needs to work towards building trust with partners and eco-system players,” said Glory Wee, Senior Director, Aviation Development Group, Civil Aviation Authority Singapore (CAAS). At the show, leading airports, including Narita International Airport Corporation, and Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV), presented case studies highlighting their technological integrations, regional growth strategies, and efforts to meet rising demand while enhancing passenger experience. Shinichiro Motomiya, General Manager, Narita International Airport Corporation, presented the ‘New Narita Airport’ expansion project for the 2030s, which includes extending an existing runway, constructing a new runway, improving connectivity into the city, building a new cargo area, and consolidating this into a single terminal to accommodate the expected increase of passenger capacity from 57 to 75 million and cargo capacity from 2.4 to 3.5 million tons at Narita International Airport.Separately, Vietnam’s aviation sector is experiencing rapid growth, with domestic travel projected to increase by over 20% from 2023 to 2027. To meet this soaring demand, Nguyen Dang Minh, Director of Airport Operations Department, Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV), shared ACV’s master plan to develop a robust and resilient airport network by 2050. By 2030, ACV will equip 30 airports across the country with a combined capacity to handle 275.9 million passengers and 4.1 million tons of cargo annually. By 2050, the network will expand to 33 airports (14 international and 19 domestic), ensuring that 97% of the population has access to an airport within 100 kilometres. The total investment for this extensive development is estimated to reach 420,000 billion VND.At the heart of this transformation is the Long Thanh International Airport project, positioned as a key national aviation hub and one of the most ambitious infrastructure projects in the region. The project is divided into three phases:Phase 1 (2025): Complete Terminal 1 with two runways and a cargo terminal, which will have the capacity to handle 25 million passengers.Phase 2 (2025-2030): Construction of Terminal 2, which will increase the airport’s capacity to 50 million passengers.Phase 3 (2035-2040): Two additional runways (T3 and T4 Terminals), reaching a total capacity of 100 million passengers.This year’s IASEA 2025 welcomes a delegation of leaders from major international airports in Vietnam, including Long Thanh International Airport—one of the world's most expensive greenfield airport projects—Noi Bai Airport, Danang Airport, Cat Bi Airport, Phu Quoc Airport, and Cam Ranh International Terminal.Mr. Nguyen Cao Cuong, Deputy General Director, Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV), shared during his opening remarks, “Under the direction of the Prime Minister of Vietnam, ACV's delegation at this expo is actively seeking high-quality, potential partners in technology, equipment, and airport operations to collaborate in accelerating the completion of Long Thanh, ensuring it meets the highest international standards. This show is not only a valuable opportunity for ACV to explore cutting-edge technologies and advanced management models but also a chance for all of us to discuss strategies for the collective growth of airport networks in Southeast Asia."What to look out for in IASEA 2025?Over the course of three days, groundbreaking discussions and innovations are taking centre stage, redefining efficiency, sustainability, and automation in ground handling and airport logistics.

NTT, DOCOMO and NEC Demonstrate World’s Fastest 140 Gbps Bidirectional Wireless Transmission in 80 GHz Band JCN Newswire

NTT, DOCOMO and NEC Demonstrate World’s Fastest 140 Gbps Bidirectional Wireless Transmission in 80 GHz Band

Highlights:Achieved the world's fastest real-time bidirectional wireless transmission at a total rate of 140 Gbps --- more than twice the speed of conventional technology --- using the millimeter-wave band between 71 GHz and 86 GHz, a frequency range already in practical use for wireless systems.Demonstrated that OAM (Orbital Angular Momentum) mode multiplexing technology increases wireless transmission capacity, while OAM-mode control technology extends transmission distances and enables the use of reflected paths.Enabled the construction of flexible backhaul networks using both optical fiber and wireless connections, contributing to the realization of future 6G and beyond services such as high-definition video transmission and temporary lines during disasters.TOKYO, Mar 25, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NTT Corporation, NTT DOCOMO, INC. and NEC Corporation announced today that they demonstrated a real-time bidirectional wireless transmission in the millimeter wave band between 71 GHz and 86 GHz that achieved a bit rate of 140 Gbps --- unprecedented for sub-100 GHz frequencies. The test demonstrated that OAM (Orbital Angular Momentum) mode multiplexing transmission technology can increase the capacity of wireless transmission, and that OAM-mode control technology can increase wireless transmission distances by using reflected paths (Figure 1). The achievement is expected to help realize high-capacity wireless transmissions to meet future demand anticipated in the 2030s.OAM-mode multiplexing technology increases the capacity of wireless transmissions between fixed stations by transmitting multiple radio waves, each carrying signals multiplexed with different OAM modes, at the same frequency and time. Transmissions exceeding 100 Gbps enable both optical-fiber and wireless connections for communication lines between fixed stations, facilitating the construction of flexible backhaul networks,*1 wireless connections with mobile base stations during events, and temporary lines during disasters. The research results are expected to contribute to the development of high-capacity wireless backhaul for future services such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and high-definition video transmission in 6G and beyond.The results will be presented at the Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC)*2 starting March 24.Research BackgroundIn the 6G era, the demand for wireless communications will accelerate with the emergence of high-definition video transmission, autonomous driving, remote medical surgery, and advanced applications such as VR and AR, increasing the need for high-capacity wireless communication. NTT, DOCOMO and NEC are working to increase capacity using a novel spatial multiplexing method that uses OAM, a property of electromagnetic waves (Figure 2).OAM, a physical quantity that describes certain properties of electromagnetic waves, is generated by adjusting the phase difference of signals from the transmitting antenna so that the same-phase trajectory spirals in the direction of propagation. On the receiving side, the phase of the received signal can be synthesized at the antenna by rotating in the opposite direction of transmission, so that radio signals corresponding to multiple OAM modes with different helix structures can be superimposed and separated without interfering with each other. Using this feature, OAM-mode multiplexing technology can transmit different data that has been spatially multiplexed, enabling large amounts of data to be sent over limited bandwidths. High-capacity wireless transmission is possible even in frequency bands below 100 GHz, where wide bandwidth is not readily available. While there is a report*3 of a successful real-time transmission test that achieved 14.7 Gbps over 40 meters in a single direction using OAM-mode multiplexing technology with digital signal processing circuits in the 71 GHz to 86 GHz band (E-band), which is used in existing wireless systems, real-time transmission capacity needs to be further increased for 6G and beyond wireless systems.Real-time wireless transmission using OAM-mode multiplexing technology in high-frequency bands has now been demonstrated by NTT, DOCOMO and NEC, supported by research on the practical application of OAM-mode multiplexing transmission (Figure 3).NEC has developed an OAM-mode multiplexing transmission system capable of real-time transmission at a maximum rate of 70 Gbps per direction, using a 1 GHz bandwidth signal in the E-band. This was achieved by extending conventional digital signal processing circuits*3 to increase the modulation rate by about 2.6 times to 300 Mbaud*4 while also enabling bidirectional communication in the E-band.DOCOMO explored expanding the application scenarios of OAM-mode multiplexing transmission and conducted demonstration experiments on reflection-based transmissions, using OAM-mode inverse-reception technology for transmissions via reflections off surfaces such as walls.NTT has devised a circuit that doubles the transmission bandwidth and an OAM-mode control technology to support long-distance transmission and reflection scenarios.Leveraging these developments, the three companies conducted demonstrations based on three scenarios:Bidirectional transmission over a distance of 22.5 metersBidirectional transmission over a distance of 45 metersBidirectional transmission over a distance of 22.5 meters using a reflectorThe result was successful transmission of 139.2 Gbps, 104.0 Gbps and 139.2 Gbps, respectively (Figure 4).Key Research Achievements- Broadband Real-Time OAM Mode Multiplexing Transmission Technology: Using eight orthogonal OAM-modes and high-order modulation up to 256QAM, the team achieved wireless transmissions with a bandwidth of 500 MHz in four frequencies—74.875 GHz and 75.375 GHz for the uplink and 84.875 GHz and 85.375 GHz for the downlink. The system achieved real-time bidirectional wireless transmission of 139.2 Gbps at a distance of 22.5 meters in a sub-100 GHz band.- OAM Mode Control Technology: In OAM-mode multiplexing transmissions, the antenna size was optimized to maximize transmission capacity according to the transmission distance. However, when operating beyond designed distances, transmission capacity typically decreased. In response, an OAM-mode control technology was developed to automatically adjust transmission parameters such as transmission power, OAM mode and modulation method. As a result, the system successfully maintained 104.0 Gbps of real-time wireless transmission over a distance of 45 meters, twice the initially designed range.- Expanded Application Scenarios: To date, OAM-mode multiplexed transmissions have focused on line-of-sight conditions that require precise alignment of transmitters and receivers. To support flexible backhaul solutions for 6G and beyond, non-line-of-sight communication using wall reflections was investigated. Using OAM-mode inverse-reception technology, the test demonstrated that wall reflections can achieve 139.2 Gbps transmissions at 22.5 meters.Future OutlookThe demonstration validated real-time bidirectional wireless transmission exceeding 100 Gbps using OAM-mode multiplexing technology. Such high-capacity wireless transmission technology can expand backhaul infrastructure beyond traditional fiber-optic connections, enabling more flexible backhaul configurations. This includes applications such as wireless connectivity to mobile base stations during events and temporary backhaul lines during disasters, ultimately supporting wireless communication demands expected in the 6G era and beyond.The three companies will explore applications such as relay transmission using real-time, high-capacity wireless communications and will apply OAM-mode multiplexing technology to wireless backhaul and fronthaul networks. They will also seek to increase wireless transmission capacity and extend transmission distances in millimeter-wave and higher frequency bands. Ultimately, they aim to establish flexible network infrastructure for future services such as VR, AR, ultra-high-definition video transmission, connected vehicles and remote medical applications in the 6G era and beyond (Figure 5).(l) Relay network that connects base stations to core communication network.
