‫قِيَم العلامة التجارية جاك موتورز | فهم “الابتكار التكنولوجي”

غوانزو، الصين،24 يونيو 2021 — /PRNewswire/ إن أهداف جاك موتورز مصمَّمة بحَزم على توفير تكنولوجيا المستقبل، والدفع والابتكار باستمرار نحو تجارب قيادة أكثر قوة وأكثر كفاءة وأكثر متعة.  ويعني “الابتكار التكنولوجي” إنشاء تقنيات جديدة، واستخدام هذه التقنيات المختلفة بطرق جديدة تمامًا، والابتكار في كل مجال من أجل إنتاج سيارات تتخطى الحدود دائمًا.

الابتكار الداخلي

يقوم مركز جاك للبحث والتطوير، تحت راية مجموعة جاك، بنسج الابتكار في عملية التصنيع.  ويعمل المركز على مدار الساعة خلف الكواليس من أجل تطوير تقنيات سيارات داخلية متطورة تجعل السيارات أسرع وأكثر هدوءًا وصداقة للبيئة ومتعة في القيادة أكثر من أي وقت مضى.

وقد تم استثمار أكثر من 30 مليار يوان في الأبحاث المستقلة في جاك، مما أسفر عن العديد من التطورات الجديدة والمثيرة.  وفي عام 2021، كشفت جاك النقاب عن “تقنية البطاريات السالبة الأسفنجية السليكونية” المطوَّرة بشكل مستقل والحاصلة على براءة اختراع، والتي تجعل طبقة السليكون السالبة داخل البطاريات ناعمة ومرنة مثل الأسفنج، مما يقويها ضد التآكل الناتج عن الشحن ويمنحها سعة تخزين أكبر.  كما يمكن تقليل حجم ووزن بطارية واحدة بنسبة٪ 20 و٪ 14 على التوالي، مع تخفيضات مستقبلية متوقعة تصل إلى٪ 50.

في قمرة القيادة:  أنظمة ذكية

تشتمل الميزات التقنية الجديدة الفريدة داخل السيارة على نظام ADiGO الذكي للسيارة 4.0، والذي يخلق “قمرة قيادة ذكية” من خلال الجمع بين “نظام التحكم الصوتي الذكي” عالي الدقة، ووضع الطيار الآلي عالي القدرة، والقدرات الواسعة لإنترنت الأشياء.

التطورات التقنية الأخرى من جانب المستهلك والتي تجعل جاك تحظى بشعبية كبيرة لدى المستهلكين الأصغر سنًا هي الميزات التي تُركِّز على السهولة والراحة، مثل الشحن اللاسلكي للأجهزة، والنوافذ البانورامية، وشاشات اللمس التي يمكن التحكم فيها عن طريق التمرير تمامًا مثل الهاتف الذكي، وكاميرات الرَكن بزاوية 360 درجة، وأزرار وضع الجلوس ذات الذاكرة.

كل هذه الابتكارات الدقيقة والمختبرَة على نطاق واسع تمنح المستهلكين تجربة قيادة جديدة تستخدم أحدث التقنيات العالمية.  هذا الاستعداد لاحتضان التغيير التكنولوجي هو ما يُميِّز جاك موتورز: السعي دائمًا إلى “الذهاب والتغيير”.

مع الكمال كهدف نهائي، تم إعداد جاك موتورز على اعتياد كسر حواجز التكنولوجيا ومواصلة الوصول إلى نطاق عالمي.  بدون ابتكار، لا يوجد تغيير؛ وبدون تغيير، لا يوجد تَقدُّم.  ويُعتبر الابتكار التكنولوجي في صميم علامة جاك موتورز التجارية، ونحن متحمسون لمعرفة كيف ستُغيِّر أحدث القدرات -من التكنولوجيا الأكثر صداقة للبيئة إلى المركبات الذكية أو ذاتية القيادة- حياة العملاء في المستقبل.

Minister of Climate Change and Environment highlights UAE’s role as global clean energy champion

DUBAI, Dr. Abdullah Belhaif Al Nuaimi, Cabinet Member and Minister of Climate Change and Environment, discussed ways of raising ambition on the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7: Affordable and Clean Energy with Damilola Ogunbiyi, CEO and Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) and Co-Chair of UN-Energy.

The UAE is one of the 25 Global Theme Champions for the UN High-level Dialogue on Energy (HLDE), a summit-level meeting convened by the UN Secretary-General, set to take place in September 2021. The dialogue was part of Bold Conversations, a series of interviews with the Global Theme Champions under the Be Bold global call-to-action campaign (#SDG7BeBold). Launched by SEforALL, the one-year campaign aims to increase awareness and drive action on SDG 7.

Dr Al Nuaimi said: “SDG 7 comes with its own challenges. We still have too many people without any access to energy at all, not speaking about clean energy.”

He added: “We realize that the energy transition has implications on economies’ structures, investments, jobs, and required skills. It’s critical to keep these issues at the forefront, and work towards a just and equitable energy transition. Everyone should play a part in the transition to clean energy. The solutions we develop must be inclusive, and engage women, youth, and other vulnerable groups to help provide affordable energy for all.”

The Minister highlighted the UAE’s pioneering role in the deployment of clean energy solutions at home and abroad, including supporting renewables projects in developing countries and expediting the global shift to renewable energy through repeatedly breaking world records for the lowest levelized cost of electricity. He also reaffirmed the country’s support for the SDGs.

Dr Al Nuaimi commended the private sector for being a partner in action in achieving the ultimate goal of carbon neutrality through cutting down on greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain.

He said: “The private sector also has the potential to make a significant contribution towards our ultimate goal of reaching carbon neutrality through reducing greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain. Prime examples that fill us with hope are Etihad Airways that pledged to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 as the first airline in the GCC region and one of the first in the industry to set a target of this scale, and Majid Al Futtaim Holding that has announced a long-term goal to produce more energy and water than it consumes, reaching a Net Positive business model by 2040.”

Furthermore, he provided an overview of the UAE’s efforts to address the critical water-energy-food nexus and reduce the carbon footprint of the agricultural sector.

In closing, the Minister explained how the country reconciles its status as a major hydrocarbon producer with spearheading the clean energy transition with a focus on decarbonizing the oil and gas industry.

SEforALL is an international organization that works in partnership with the UN and leaders in government, the private sector, financial institutions, civil society, and philanthropy to accelerate the implementation of SDG 7.
