Beijing Municipality is set to raise the quota of new-energy vehicles (NEVs) in the new car license plate allocation by 2022, officials announced Wednesday.

The country’s capital city will allocate 100,000 new car plates in the next year, and the quota for NEVs will be raised from 60,000 to 70,000.

The quota for traditional fuel cars will be decreased from 40,000 to 30,000.

The move, which comes after the progress in batteries and other technologies, as well as the increased ranges of NEVs, is intended at decreasing fuel vehicle exhaust pollution and enhancing the air quality of the Chinese capital, said the municipal office for car quota allocation management.

Beijing has taken measures to reduce air pollution, such as capping the number of new car plates and taking one-fifth of private fuel vehicles off the road on weekdays based on the final digit of plate numbers. The license plate lottery system for fuel cars is turning many drivers to switch to NEVs, which get government subsidies and face no such ban on workdays.
