Beijing, the capital of China, is spearheading the promotion of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles as part of the country's strategy to achieve carbon reduction targets. The city aims to have 3,000 hydrogen vehicles on the roads and establish 37 hydrogen refuelling stations by the end of 2023, with a projected increase to over 10,000 units by 2025. This endeavor is in line with China's ambitious goals of reaching carbon neutrality by 2060 and peaking CO2 emissions by 2030, emphasizing a substantial reduction in carbon emissions. China's hydrogen industry has seen growth, with the production and sales of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles increasing significantly. The Beijing municipal government anticipates a significant cut of 2 million tonnes in carbon emissions in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area by 2025, alongside a boost in hydrogen demand from 50 t/d in 2023 to 135 t/d by 2025. The plan also focuses on the development of industrial systems, supporting infrastructure, and the formation of an industrial cluster to drive hydrogen energy forward. Additionally, Sinopec, a major state-controlled oil firm, has taken steps to invest in green hydrogen projects, with a goal to lead the hydrogen market in China by 2025. The company's initiatives include plans to build 1,000 hydrogen refuelling stations and various other sustainable infrastructure developments by 2025, with a commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, a decade ahead of the national target. Despite setbacks due to the Covid-19 pandemic impacting hydrogen vehicle production in 2020, the outlook for hydrogen energy in China remains optimistic, with a strong emphasis on sustainability and energy transition.
