张家港集聚涉氢企业近五十家共闯国际市场

Core Viewpoint - Guofu Hydrogen Energy (Hong Kong) Development Co., Ltd. officially commenced operations, marking a significant milestone for Guofu Hydrogen Energy after its listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The company aims to leverage Hong Kong's international platform to accelerate the international standard certification of core equipment for liquid hydrogen storage and transportation, as well as green hydrogen production, while deepening cross-border cooperation in the hydrogen energy sector to support global low-carbon energy transition [1]. Group 1: Company Development and Strategy - Guofu Hydrogen Energy is a leading enterprise in the hydrogen energy sector and a "quasi-chain leader" in Jiangsu's hydrogen energy industry chain. Since its establishment in 2016, the company has developed a complete industrial chain from manufacturing hydrogen supply systems and refueling stations to achieving the highest domestic market share in hydrogen refueling equipment and supply systems [1]. - The current development strategy of Guofu Hydrogen Energy involves a dual approach targeting both domestic and international markets. Domestically, the company is ramping up production capacity with an annual output of 80,000 vehicle-mounted hydrogen storage bottles in Zhangjiagang and 50,000 in Shanghai. Internationally, the company is expanding its footprint by forming joint ventures with overseas firms and establishing eight assembly bases across Europe, South America, Oceania, the Middle East, and North Africa [1][2]. Group 2: Technological Innovation and Projects - Guofu Hydrogen Energy has recently signed a $5 million contract with ADVAIT in India for alkaline water electrolysis hydrogen production equipment and core components, marking a shift from single equipment exports to systematic cooperation and industrial layout collaboration [2]. - The company is focusing on technological innovation, with a key project being the off-grid hydrogen production technology, which aims to utilize Xinjiang's abundant wind and solar resources for hydrogen production. The project faces challenges related to the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources, but the company is working with research institutions to address these issues [2]. Group 3: Industry Impact and Local Development - Guofu Hydrogen Energy plays a pivotal role in the hydrogen energy industry in Zhangjiagang, where it has become a partner in attracting investment. The company has announced plans to develop a supply chain base and establish a hydrogen energy industry fund with a total scale of 2 billion yuan to support promising projects [3]. - Zhangjiagang has implemented various policies to foster the development of the hydrogen energy sector, including the establishment of innovation platforms and talent development alliances. The city has nearly 50 hydrogen-related enterprises and actively supports the construction of hydrogen refueling stations and the purchase of hydrogen vehicles [3]. - The practical applications of hydrogen energy in Zhangjiagang include hydrogen buses with a range of over 300 kilometers, hydrogen fuel trucks with a maximum load of 60 tons, and over 500 hydrogen-sharing bicycles. The city has deployed 224 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, accumulating over 15 million kilometers in operational mileage, and has established five hydrogen refueling stations with a daily refueling capacity of 3.2 tons [4].
