BEIJING, May 17 (Xinhua) — The Beijing Municipal People’s Government has decided to provide 20,000 additional license plates for new energy vehicles (NEVs), on top of the 40,000 license plates it allocated in January this year, aiming to further meet the transportation needs of car-less families, local authorities announced Friday.
In 2025, the total quota for passenger car license plates in Beijing will be 160,000 units. This figure includes 100,000 units under the annual quota system and another 60,000 new license plates for NIE. According to the Beijing Transportation Bureau, the additional license plates are exclusively for NIE.
The measure will bring the number of electric vehicle license plates provided to car-free families this year to 118,400, the department said.
Starting from May 26, households that applied for a license plate can enter the city’s special points-based lottery system to check their ranking. Once verified, households will receive a certificate of confirmation of receipt of a license plate quota, which will be valid for 12 months.
Beijing authorities have taken various measures to combat traffic congestion and air pollution, including introducing a lottery system for license plates for internal combustion engine vehicles in 2011 and allocating quotas for license plates for electric vehicles a few years later. -0-
