In the first phase of construction, a plant with a capacity of producing 5000 semi-trailers and 5000 new energy special vehicles per year will be set up by 2021with an investment of ¥1 billion. In the second-stage phase, a new energy base with the production capacity of 5000 new energy buses wil be added by 2023 with an investment of ¥0.5 billion. After the whole project has been successfully completed and commissioned, it is expected to generate an annual output value of ¥10 billion.
