Moscow is charged with liquefied gas and electricity

In "Expocenter Krasnaya Presnya" on November 1-3, 2017, the exhibition "Autocomplex-2017"

In "Expocentre on Krasnaya Presnya" on November 1-3, 2017 took place with the assistance of the government of Moscow exhibition "Autocomplex-2017" (autofilling complex. AutoTechService. Garage and Parking) devoted to the development of filling stations, including gas filling stations and charging units for electric vehicles.

Without any technical facilities can't do any car? Without a gas station. A fashionable topic in recent years has been the electric car, so he also can't do without the charging station. And at first glance it seems that it's just, well, connected
to the city mains, well, put a more powerful charging station, well, have set up a dedicated space for electric vehicles and forward into the future. In fact, as they say, the devil is in the details. So the city's power supply is simply not designed for the capacity required
for any fast charging modern rechargeable batteries of electric vehicles, as their capacity is gradually increasing, for example, the Nissan Leaf with 24 to 30 kWh, and the second generation
and up to 40 kWh, while the Tesla Model S from 65 to 100 kWh). For example, Norway is already coming an end to "tax and Parking for EV Paradise", as electric vehicles have already scored lanes
on the roads and caused severe damage to the Treasury as a multibillion-dollar amounts of exemptions (zero VAT
and other taxes when buying a new car) and nedopushchenie Treasury, municipalities
and road taxes. As a result, the following 2018, the Norwegian owners of electric vehicles will force to start to pay at least 50% of the normal vehicle tax motorists, and with 2020 General equal rights with motorists. How will this affect the sales to assume it is not necessary – with a level of 25% of the total local market, electric cars can easily roll on the same "background" level. By the way, China has already been consistently leading in terms of sales of electric vehicles in the world, their growth is also supported by the extremely generous government and municipal benefits and the slightest failure
from them is perceived by the market and responds extremely painful immediate fall – was the place to be in the beginning of this year, while benefits were not restored, then sales growth has resumed.

What am I? Yes, to the fact that this Cup not pass us, so the Moscow Government with a zeal worthy of, frankly, the best "in the peace so to speak purposes," means already from 2021 to purchase exclusively battery-electric buses despite the fact that this technology still did not grow out of "short pants". For example, the vaunted polustanova battery charger, supposedly allowing the electric bus fast charging at end stops, in our harsh climate simply can not work reliably in winter conditions,
for elementary obledenevayut. And so practically in every aspect, but the officials just have to crow about "innovative approaches", and there is not even dawned. With a passenger as electric vehicles would be simpler, but also far from rosy. Compulsory equipment of a regular gas station charging stations for electric vehicles, adopted in 2015, in fact, disrupted, space for free Parking of EVS due to the lack of penalty for their illegal use of a normal motorists to electric vehicles are often unavailable. Etc., etc.
Not to mention the fact that in Russia today, 68% of electricity "produced" using polluting coal and oil (thermal power plants), which makes the increased use of electric vehicles quite absurd. However, just already, the Russian Government creates interdepartmental Commission to develop measures to accelerate the development of electric vehicles, which will develop a software package of subsidies, concessional loans and leasing. In addition, benefits will be provided for both domestic and foreign automakers, including easy installation and certification of the system "ERA-GLONASS". Plus the budget of the organization will receive a mandatory minimum quota of purchases of electric vehicles. Hence the exponent that is electric battery charging stations (four in number) used on the "Autocomplex-2017" a certain interest. four Exhibitor represented electric refueling-charging, so the club of fans of the brand Tesla has presented a car (the Tesla S sedan) and two types of wall-mounted recharging devices Wallbox eMH3
and Wallbox eMH1 manufactured by ABL (Russian exclusive distributor – LLC "ABL Rus").

The Wallbox eMH1 device as claimed in the brochure – the compact wall-mounted recharging station in the world. By the way, Tesla Club Moscow promises to present on the Russian market the newest budget model Tesla 3 in December this year or January next year.

Located near the stand of JSC "rosseti", which paired with a 22-kilowatt charging the column with connector Type 2 Connector for 3-phase connect electric smart fortwo electric drive coupe, however, the previous third-generation (С451) with a power reserve of only up to 140 km.

Three "electric cars" rounded out the e-Golf VII with the charging station high capacity HP Terra ABB. In the future, this station (post charger + power Cabinet) can be charged in promising electric cars in 10 minutes to reserve 300 km away. Working voltage ranges from 175 to 920В (average 400 V) at full output of 150 kW and a current of 375 A. the Possible
and parallel charging Dynamic electric vehicle DC two power 2х350 kW and 2х500 And
when optimizing your network connection for each electric vehicle and the same voltage range 150–920В. The particular dependability of recharging is achieved by redundant power and communications, as well as individual cooling charging cables. The distance between the power Cabinet (dual closets), and a charger can reach 150 m. In charger comes with a chiller (chiller), which speeds up and makes safer the charging of the electric vehicle. The charging station has already proved itself in the field when charging commercial buses. The operating temperature of the station is
from -35°C to +55°C. control and monitoring of charging is via a 7-inch color touchscreen display. Offer optional presence sensor of the electric car, 15-inch touch screen with enhanced brightness, customizable user interface, integrated payment terminal and load balancing between multiple stations.

In addition, ABB offers the Ability Connected Services, including easy connection of chargers back-offices, payment platforms or Smart Grid systems; remote diagnostics, repair and software updates, ensuring low maintenance costs. There is a dedicated service in Russia. So the charging station ABB
already quite suitable not only for current but also future electric vehicles.

Today ABB has already delivered more than 5,000 fast charging stations Terra 53 with a capacity of
50 kW (connectivity standards CCS, CHAdeMO, and Mode 3) charging of two electric vehicles (one for permanent and the other for AC) in 50 countries of which 51 station in Russia. Speed charging stations Terra's HP is three times higher than existing systems.

The electric e-Golf VII first iteration equipped with an electric motor producing 85 kW (acceleration
to 100 km/h in 10.4 s, max. speed: 140 km/h), and the reserve is 190 km (the battery capacity is 24.2 kWh). After the first pair of "electric Golf" next year, Volkswagen AG intends to enter Russia for testing a batch of ten electric vehicles the second iteration with improved characteristics. Thus, the capacity of the motor is increased to 136 kW, acceleration to 100 km/h decreased to 9.6 C, and the maximum speed reached 150 km/h, but, more importantly, range increased to 300 km at the battery increased to 35.8 kWh capacity. I wonder
that curb weight has increased by only 30 kg to 1615 kg recharge Time using a single-phase Schuko socket (2.3 kW) for this generation of electric cars is 17 h, Typ 2
(7.4 kW) – 10.5 h, and 90-kilowatt Combo/CCS or mode 4 (to 80% capacity) – 45 min.

The Finnish firm Chago (the Russian distributor OOO "Rus Ansto") introduced a series of battery charging stations Wallbox that represents a modular solution for charging both for single (EVB 100) and double (200 EVB) electric vehicle charging. Series battery charging stations Chago Pro is designed to work in difficult weather conditions. She also suggested EVF100 in single and double EVF200. Optional supported hardware, the corresponding IEC 15118 for services with authentication of the vehicle. Series Chago Premium dynamic load management is designed for rapid recharging of electric vehicles. A single version is designated as EVC100, and double as EVC200. Top model – Chago Media 2.0 with built-in functionality of the advertising, i.e., 55 inch advertising display full HD (with media player, usually HDMI) under the protection 6mm glass and two places charging Mode 3/ Type 2. In addition, the product range includes wall chargers Chago eFill (EVH020 with connectors Type 1 or Type 2)
with the industrial 5-pin 16A CEE Plug for home charging without built-in protection system against overload, the circuit breaker or system of communication with the back end. The company offers online ABOUT Chago Cloud (EVS) to control EZS, which also includes an event log, reports of transmitted energy, fault messages, and reports. The projects of the company Chago (station ENSTO) implemented in Helsinki, Prague, Hong Kong, London, Oslo and Sweden (Toyota), as well as the Moscow suburb of Khimki. Delivery Chago charging stations in Russia are in 2011 and today it is the largest supplier to the Russian market.

Gas (more precisely in the context of gas) the subject of the exhibition "gas Station-2017" was presented by the Moscow gas processing plant (JSC mgpz), which is a fairly diversified company, not only working to ensure installation of fire-fighting equipment gas extinguishing, but also the release of BVK (block input cranes) for cleaning, keeping and, if necessary, manually or automatically shutoff the gas main.

In addition, the manufacture of modules independent gas provision (MGBH-500/24,5) with capacity for 500 nm³, batteries, gas storage BAGH-1200-24.5 cm (with a capacity of 1200 nm³)
and BAGH-600-24.5 cm (with a capacity of 600 nm³), as well as services for installation and maintenance of LPG equipment on the vehicle, including checking the pressure (with appropriate stand) metal-composite and steel gas cylinders, used for transport. In addition, mgpz implements the project on creation on its territory of a gas filling with liquefied methane (LNG or LPG) for receiving the gradual spread of the international gas tractor brands Scania and Volvo. Tractors are equipped with two types of fuel tanks (for LPG and compressed gas) in dire need of filling stations on the territory of Russia, and a convenient location on the border of Moscow (Kashirskoye motorway near the Moscow ring road) allows mgpz to accept the entire flow of trucks. Here open and CNG stations No. 1 with the capacity of 50 000 nm³ a day, with four posts fueling CNG transport. The plant capacity is 290 kg/hour in the summer and 360 kg/HR in the winter, the gas purity is 98%, and LNG can be implemented also with mobile carriers. For example, BGH-500
with the volume of gas transported 500 nm³ 20 metalcomposite cylinders (Type 3) at an operating pressure of 250 bar. The total mass of such BGH-500 – 2800 kgs.

An additional problem with liquefied methane, whose volume is less than the gas 600 times, lies in the fact that physically liquefaction requires several steps, as one gas can be compress not more than 12 times, and the rest of the gas has to go for re-liquefaction cycle. Accordingly, until complete liquefaction requires several steps. In addition, in the fall of the level of liquid gas in the tank of the truck below 40% of its volume, the tank is better to go to full volume, which improves the working performance of the car. This requires a gas filling station with a system of drainage, converted from liquid to gas phase. Such installation mgpz also developed. Possible annual sales volume of CNG at mgpz
today is 74 million nm³, while increasing the diameter of the tie-in to the pipeline
up to 300 mm – is 665 million nm³, and if another box to install the compressor, it can increase to 1,329 billion nm³ per year. By the way, the CNG transportation LNG is also possible, for example, pages-4500 ("Titan-2") can carry up to 5400 nm³ of gas in composite cylinders Type 4, designed for a working pressure of 250 bar. The total mass of PAHs-5400 – 17 500 kg.

In fire plan mgpz certified in Russia new gas fire-extinguishing agent (STATE) "INERGEN", which consists of 52% nitrogen, 40% argon, and only 8% of the carbon dioxide (CO), which is safe for health and the safety of the protected equipment (e.g., server computers). Fire suppression system with STATE "INERGEN" are capable of extinguishing fires of classes A, B, C and E already at the earliest stage in just 60 seconds (after activation of the activation system)
by providing a surround effect. Application STATE "INERGEN" is possible on the control points with the constant presence of staff, CNG stations, compressor stations, libraries, facilities, process control systems, laboratories, fuel storage, communication facilities, substations, machinery spaces, rail and water transport.
and soD. Install approved fgbu VNIIPO of EMERCOM of Russia, Gosstandart and the Russian Maritime register of shipping.

However, at the last part of the exhibition "Autocomplex-2017" round table "GAS as motor fuel", the representative of the IYPE Valery Rounov stressed that the industry is not necessary for the broad development of this type of fuel regulations that openly to slow down the integration processes and reduces the opportunities to invest private funds in view of uncertain prospects. So that the provisions of the state program of NGV fuel in many ways are broadcast, but not filled with concrete content.

By the way Russia is among the three largest markets by volume of liquefied petroleum gas (propane-butane, or LPG) with a volume of 3.05 million tons of global consumption of LPG
at 26.7 million tons in 2016. The increase in the consumption of LPG in our country since 2009 three times, and from 2000 – almost 6-fold. One car with a LPG installation in a year is approximately one ton of liquefied propane-butane, which corresponds exactly to the global average indicator. In addition, most of the work on LPG cars in Russia (about 3 million) according to the international Association WLPGA apply to commercial. Actually, just look at the streets of the capital, where the main stream of "Gazelle" and "Sable" is equipped with gas cylinders. The number of gas stations in the country over the past year is unchanged at 4900 units.

Interesting Smart-the technology of the 21st century – Benzuber that allows to refuel vehicles at gas stations without direct visits to the customers offices, i.e. directly in a special program from a smartphone, was presented by the company "Smart technology". So to say "uber for gas stations" already signed contracts with 43 distribution networks (more than 800 stations)
stretching from St. Petersburg to Yakutsk, and in the beginning of 2018 expects to double the network of fuel stations operated its system. In effect, a system of self-service, included in the functionality of smartphones. If the column is operated tanker, the driver and out of the car do not have. It just dials the application, the column number, fuel type and quantity, and dressed. The official launch of the system Benzuber happened
in March of this year in Ekaterinburg, where is the head office of "Smarty-technology". The business model Benzuber is as follows: the owners of gas stations have nothing to do: connect free, integration into the control system goes through special software modules and SDK that the developer provides to the vendor a gas station, turning them this way in AAPS. As a percentage Benzuber receives only upon filling a customer whose payment card tied to a personal profile in the app. Thus, the owner of the gas station improves its "nano" image, increases the throughput at peak hours and can also save money on staff. In the future it would be appropriate to allocate Benzuber a separate column to speed up the refilling process for rushing drivers. At this early stage (but beyond start-up) at Benzuber already has over 10 thousand subscribers. However, the "Smart technology" warns that in spite of the already established followers Benzuber, really working software (developed over 15 years) have only them.

An interesting series of portable plastic tanks with filling mechanisms, i.e., portable mini gas stations have provided firm SWIMER Tank&Hoses, whose dealer is a Belarusian branch of the Institute "Belagromash".

The exhibition shows a medium capacity tank 2500 litres, and with a distributing system under AbBlue that transit Belarus is of particular interest, as the European trains with Taguchi whose engines meet the Euro 5 and especially Euro 6 require not only the appropriate diesel fuel, but also in urea. Tank height 1.99 m,
and a diameter of 1.71 m. the Range of the tank SWIMMER from 1500 to 10 000 litres of diesel fuel or AdBlue. Tanks can be equipped with a transfer system with a length of hose 145 cm There is also a series of very small mobile tanks (Tanks Mobil DT), 200, 430 and 600 liters.

Manufacturers of rolling stock for transportation of oil and gas products were presented
at the exhibition "Autocomplex-2017" company NPO "petroleum engineering and special automotive industry" (trademark GT7) from the city of Kuznetsk, Penza region, who presented their new products: lightweight 4-axle semitrailer-tanker PPC-33 with a capacity of 33 m³ weight 8044 kg passing standards of weight control on the roads of the 1st and 2nd categories. The cost of a tank-truck to the beginning of December with the discount is 2 214 280 RUB Firm GT7 offers tank leasing (1.1% per month).

In parallel was presented a semi-gas TANK-44 for LPG tanker with a volume of 44 nm³. The own weight of the semitrailer-tank – 13 778 kg. It is like a larger model TRAILERS-48 (48 cubic meters of liquefied gas) correspond to the norms of weight control for roads of the 1st and 2nd categories. The cost of TANK-44 – 3 226 200 RUB, and TRAILERS-48 – 3 996 200 rubles For the tank-LNG G7 also apply firm offer on leasing. In addition to the trucks series PPC volume 28-33 m³ CNG and LNG series of atst/TRAILERS (22-48 m³) firm G7 offers more and tanks for transportation of liquefied natural gas (LPG) TANK with a volume of 36 nm³, carbon dioxide PPCW
(25 m³), ammonia PCA (36 m³), as well as cryogenic tanks for oxygen, nitrogen and helium
(PPSK 15 m³).

     

Another Exhibitor of the same rolling stock was the machine-building plant Fokstank from the city of Kstovo in Nizhny Novgorod region. However, natural samples firm had not submitted (according to the stand staff their new tank they showed in the exhibition COMTRANS-2017 in September). Fokstank ranks third in the country in terms of production of specialized trailers, tank cars, and tank semitrailers for transportation of light (16-41 m³) and dark (10-38 m³) of oil products, LNG and a wide variety of materials, including food. The volume of production Fokstank reached the level of 60 tanks per month. Feature business Fokstank is that it works including for individual orders of customers, literally section extending or shortening the tank in accordance with the wishes of the customer, and installing a variety of additional equipment. The customer remains also the choice of the brand of axles for the truck (mainly BPW or SAF is used, but the equipment domestic production axes TONAR). There are tanks for installation directly on a truck chassis KAMAZ different models or Hino-500. Except tank Fokstank also offers tankers with a capacity of 8-20 m³. By the way, in 2018, the company intends to master the production of tank semi-trailers for bulk goods 15-34 m³.

Many companies from the CIS and from far abroad countries presented fuel dispensers
and other equipment for filling stations and tank farms. Among the most interesting is probably the mentioning of the Novosibirsk companies that presented as cold-resistant equipment (guaranteed operation at -40°C) of the company ZAO "PK-electronics", and floating (!) CCD company "Metalservis".

Still the problem of the civilized supply of fuel consumers in the reservoirs remains in our country is very acute, although the fleet of jet skis, boats and motor yachts are gradually increasing.

Most striking in the truest sense of the word stand, perhaps, was the company "rusimpul's", which offers a variety of light displays for the gas station, and focuses not on cheap Chinese components, and reliable domestic and imported, although it affects
on the price, but the warranty up to five years (the lifetime of the scoreboard to 10 years).

The light display BRANO (branding a gas station and a modular design for the gas station) even had to lay on its side.
