Reviewing the company's environmental consistency materials, verifying the environmental information disclosure content of newly produced models, and random sampling tests... Recently, at FAW Jiefang Qingdao Automobile Co., Ltd. located in Jimo District, Qingdao City, Shandong Province, a professional environmental protection technical service team is working on the company's environmental consistency verification of new vehicles. The team is composed of technical personnel organized by the Shandong Provincial Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Monitoring Center and regulatory and law enforcement personnel from the ecological and environmental departments at the Qingdao city and district levels. The person in charge of the company said,"This will help us a lot. It can detect environmental problems in a timely manner and reduce hidden environmental risks on the road."

"Large car ownership" faces new regulatory considerations
In recent years, the Shandong Province Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Monitoring Center has insisted on paying equal attention to supervision and service, and parallel inspection and guidance. It has actively explored new paths to guide the entire process of enterprise-related administrative compliance. In the annual environmental protection compliance verification of newly produced motor vehicles and non-road mobile machinery, etc., actively integrate service thinking and vigorously carry out technical assistance to ensure that vehicles continue to stably meet emission standards.
As one of the important industries for carbon emissions, the transportation sector has always been the key direction and difficulty of environmental protection supervision, especially for Shandong, a major motor vehicle province. Judging from the data for 2022, the difficulty of motor vehicle supervision in Shandong Province is mainly reflected in three aspects: First, the number of motor vehicles is large, reaching 31.72 million, especially the number of car ownership ranks first in the country, with 28.97 million; Second, the emission of motor vehicles is high, with emissions including carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, carbon oxides, and particulate matter reaching 1.567 million tons, which is the main contributor to the total amount of atmospheric pollutant emissions; Third, there are a large number of motor vehicle manufacturing companies, bringing together a series of domestic motor vehicle and non-road mobile machinery head brands such as Sinotruk, FAW Jiefang, Foton, Zhongtong, Lingong, Komatsu, Shantui, and Loewo, which meet environmental protection standards and The workload of consistency verification is large, which makes source supervision more difficult.
Implementing green and low-carbon transformation is crucial. In this regard, since 2017, Shandong Province has explored the lead in establishing a new vehicle environmental protection compliance verification mechanism. Based on the environmental protection compliance of the entire industry chain of vehicle design, vehicle manufacturing, vehicle sales, and vehicle use, it conducts environmental protection compliance and consistency verification every year for motor vehicles and non-road mobile machinery production and sales enterprises within its jurisdiction to prevent vehicles and machinery with substandard emissions from flowing into the market from the source.
From "checking" after the event to "helping" at the front, the company can truly benefit
The so-called environmental consistency verification of new vehicles is to check whether the vehicle emission control devices are consistent with the information disclosed in the announcement in accordance with the vehicle type approval announcement issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, resolutely curb vehicles that do not meet environmental protection compliance requirements from entering circulation, and eliminate environmental risks from the source. Hidden dangers.
"We are actively exploring the '1+1' model, that is, conducting routine verification and legal publicity at the same time, and conducting new vehicle environmental protection compliance verification for newly produced motor vehicles and non-road mobile machinery enterprises in the province to curb vehicles that do not meet environmental protection compliance requirements from the source., machinery enters the circulation link to ensure clean supply of mobile sources and sources." Guo Yuanchun, director of the Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Monitoring Center of Shandong Province, introduced.
Shandong Province has established a support group with national-level laboratory experts as the main members to go deep into the factory workshops of the company to inspect the disclosure of vehicle environmental protection information, consistency of pollution control devices, self-inspection of new vehicles off the line, etc., and carry out on-board diagnostic system (OBD) testing, using technical means to simulate the failures of the liquid level and temperature sensors of the selective catalytic reduction device (SCR) to check whether the OBD can alarm normally.
"During the verification process, we will also conduct an actual road emission test (PEMS test) on national six heavy-duty diesel vehicles. According to the type of vehicle, we will drive normally in three different road conditions: urban, suburban and highway, and measure motor vehicle pollutants in real time. Whether the actual emissions meet the standard requirements." Guo Yuanchun introduced.
The Shandong Province Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Monitoring Center is organizing a professional technical team to carry out new vehicle environmental compliance verification.
According to statistics, since the beginning of this year, the Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Monitoring Center of Shandong Province has inspected a total of 44 motor vehicle and non-road mobile machinery manufacturers and 76 vehicle (machine) models, found and completed 21 rectification problems, and provided one-on-one services to newly produced motor vehicle enterprises in the province, helping enterprises plan in advance and quickly adapt to the requirements of new standards, effectively preventing substandard vehicles from entering the market, and winning unanimous praise from the inspected enterprises.
Running in both directions, from waiting for "inspection" to independent "inspection"
Front-end services have also ushered in a "two-way rush". Through supervision and inspection, companies have also consciously improved their environmental management level. At FAW Jiefang Qingdao Automobile Co., Ltd., we saw that the company has established a self-inspection team for environmental protection compliance, equipped with a full set of environmental protection testing equipment, and used off-line random inspections in the factory and pre-sales self-inspection by dealers to conduct consistency verification of environmental protection information disclosure, realizing that the environmental protection information is completely consistent when the vehicle is delivered; From product research and development release to off-line random inspection of the entire vehicle, more than 300 reasonableness verifications of OBD, PEMS, NOx control, and emission components are carried out every year to achieve full coverage of regulatory and standard requirements and full coverage of product lines, and an environmental protection announcement has been established. The single configuration plan for declaration, the research and development parameter verification mechanism, and the procurement supplier filling system achieve a self-inspection pass rate of 100%.

In 2024, Shandong will carry out compliance verification of in-use vehicle emissions across the province. FAW Jiefang Qingdao Automobile Co., Ltd. carefully studied the standard requirements and exclusively adopted a combination of external procurement and self-inspection in the industry. Through external procurement, it cooperates with the China Automotive Technology Research Center every year to conduct random inspections in Fujian to exchange and learn cutting-edge technologies in the industry., update inspection and testing methods, select representative traction, cargo, dump, special purpose and other main sales models in Shandong, and test more than 40 vehicles every year, achieving full coverage of vehicle models. At the same time, in response to the illegal tampering of in-use vehicles, efforts are made to promote the upgrade of vehicle tamper-proof functions and the implementation of remote emission monitoring and analysis to help achieve emission standards for in-use vehicles.
Shandong Province focuses on strengthening the three-level linkage of provinces and municipalities, and combines the responsibilities and actual work at all levels to create a supervision service system that is connected and coordinated and resonates. At the same time, it integrates publicity into services, actively carries out publicity and education on motor vehicle pollution prevention and control, and works with enterprise executives to confirm standard requirements, testing methods, and judgment standards, achieve consistency with enterprises in terms of concepts and standards understanding, and form a synergy to promote environmental protection compliance.
In the next step, Shandong Province will continue to take the green, low-carbon and clean development of mobile sources and the improvement of ambient air quality as the starting point in the environmental protection compliance of new vehicles, timely and accurately grasp the difficult problems in the production and operation of car owners, machinery owners, and vehicle companies, and change the "post-event investigation" of environmental supervision to "pre-service", ask enterprises for their needs and plans, and promptly resolve environmental protection demands, so that mobile source environmental supervision and law enforcement have "strength" and more "temperature".
