DT产研丨一场基于材料迭代的产业升级在氢能产业“打响”

Core Viewpoint - DT New Energy aims to bridge domestic and international hydrogen energy and fuel cell industries, providing comprehensive services including industry research, consulting, investment, technology transfer, market promotion, media conferences, and data analysis [1]. Group 1: Industry Development - The development of hydrogen energy in China is led by fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) and is gradually transitioning to a broader hydrogen energy approach. The past reliance on policy support is shifting towards a model driven by new policy guidance and technological innovation [3][4]. - The FCV industry chain is expected to upgrade first due to its relatively mature application and technology within the larger hydrogen energy sector [3]. Group 2: FCVC Exhibition Insights - The FCVC exhibition showcased a significant increase in material companies, with discussions centered around core material iterations for fuel cells. Notable foreign material giants like Solvay, 3M, AGC, and Saint-Gobain were present, indicating a slowdown in overseas hydrogen energy development [4][6]. - The exhibition highlighted the ongoing transition in the hydrogen production sector towards high-performance competition, with companies beginning to replace core materials, such as the adoption of Solvay's short-chain perfluorosulfonic acid resin in PEM hydrogen production membranes [6][8]. Group 3: Technological Innovations and Applications - The exhibition emphasized the importance of expanding application scenarios and technological innovation in the fuel cell industry, especially in light of reduced subsidies. Companies are increasingly discussing new applications, such as hydrogen fuel cell mining trucks and hydrogen-powered drones [10][12]. - Air-cooled fuel cells have become a standard feature among exhibitors, with nearly all companies showcasing or developing this technology, reflecting its maturity and the influence of current policies [13]. Group 4: Increased State-Owned Enterprise Participation - The presence of state-owned enterprises at the FCVC has increased, indicating a growing governmental focus on hydrogen energy development. Companies like Huadian Hydrogen Energy and Zhonglian Heavy Industry showcased their fuel cell and electrolysis technologies [18]. Group 5: Consumer Engagement and Hydrogen Production - The exhibition featured more consumer-oriented products and experiences, addressing previous criticisms regarding hydrogen energy's accessibility to end-users. Activities included a hydrogen-powered two-wheeler experience event [21]. - New hydrogen production companies, such as Yifu Hydrogen Energy, also participated, indicating a rising interest in the hydrogen production segment [18]. Group 6: Upcoming Events - DT New Energy will host the "2025 Renewable Energy Hydrogen Production Industry Development Forum" on July 10-11, 2025, focusing on key materials and hydrogen production systems, including discussions on ALK/PEM/AEM technologies and market trends [23].
