[데일리시사닷컴] Seoul, which is expanding its master plan plan for’Seoul, the leading city of hydrogen cars’, is planning to supply 4,934 hydrogen cars and expand more than 15 hydrogen charging stations by 2022.
While the expansion of the charging infrastructure, which must be preceded for the supply of hydrogen vehicles, has been sluggish, in order to supply hydrogen vehicles as planned, it was argued that the Seoul Metropolitan Government should actively respond to the construction of charging stations that are suffering from opposition from residents.
Rep. Lee Gwang-sung (Democratic Democratic Party, Gangseo 5) of the Seoul Metropolitan Council’s Environment and Water Resources Committee pointed out that the construction of the charging station was not proceeding as planned due to resident opposition and anxiety in the 299th extraordinary meeting of the climate and environment headquarters. Strongly demanded the will to resolve the issues
Currently operating charging stations are the National Assembly Hydrogen Electric Vehicle Charging Station, the H Gangdong Hydrogen Charging Station, and the Sangam Hydrogen Station.
Rep. Lee Kwang-seong said, “At the last meeting, we mentioned the feasibility of supplying hydrogen vehicles several times and asked us to promote the construction of charging stations as planned.” “At the moment when 1,620 hydrogen cars were supplied by last year, only three charging stations are currently in operation. It means that each 540 units are in charge,” he pointed out the problem of insufficient hydrogen charging stations.
“It is predicted that eco-friendly vehicles will outperform internal combustion locomotives in 2035, but this must be a prerequisite for the expansion of the charging infrastructure on an absolute scale.” “The construction of additional charging stations facing difficulties due to complaints and various factors concerned about dangers For this, the Seoul Metropolitan Government asked for various measures to be devised, and to create an environment where a safe and appropriate-sized charging station can be built next to gas stations like Germany.
Lastly, Congressman Lee said, “Only when the expansion of hydrogen charging stations and securing safety are resolved, we can achieve the goal of supplying 4,934 units by 2022.” “I hope you will make more efforts to promote the expansion of the charging infrastructure as planned.”
