Public demand for a more cost-effective and economically friendly energy source has prompted companies including Donfeng Automobile Co. to introduce new energy vehicle technology that can compete with current oil prices. On November 13, 2011, Donfeng Automobile Co. launched a 300,000-unit LGN engine project to promote the sale of LNG engines in Nanchong, China; according to Sichuan Jingji Ribao in Sichual Economic daily, as part of the promotion process, the company partnered with China Natural Gas Co. to build a skid-mounted LNG gas station.
The company has also invested $23.8 million into the project to produce clean energy engines, and it has received support from Wang Min, secretary of the Liaoning Party committee of China and Chen Zhenggao, governor of the Liaoning province. With the constant improvement of the overall level of the automotive industry and the advancement of the auto supporting industries and technological innovations, the industry has been on a good momentum of development, said Wang Min.
