The hydrogen energy industry is receiving a major boost! The Information Office of The State Council has released the white paper "China's Actions for Carbon Peaking and Carbon Neutrality"
On November 8th, the Information Office of The State Council released the White Paper "China's Actions for Carbon Peaking and Carbon Neutrality" (hereinafter referred to as the "White Paper"), systematically expounding from the national strategic level the overall deployment, major measures and initial achievements of China's carbon peaking and carbon neutrality. As an important component of clean energy, hydrogen energy has been given a key role. The document proposes, "Accelerate the development of green hydrogen energy, adhere to innovation-driven development, promote the full-chain development of hydrogen energy from production, storage, transportation to application, and accelerate the cultivation of new products, new business forms and new models," providing a clear policy orientation for the development of the hydrogen energy industry.

Leading the world in production capacity: Green hydrogen energy demonstrates China's strength
According to the white paper data, by the end of 2024, the annual production capacity of green hydrogen will exceed 150,000 tons, ranking first in the world. This achievement marks that our country has already possessed core competitiveness in the global hydrogen energy field. "Green hydrogen energy" produced from renewable energy is an important carrier for achieving deep decarbonization and clean energy structure, and has broad application prospects in industries, transportation, energy storage and other fields. The vigorous rise of China's hydrogen energy industry has provided a practical and feasible path and strong industrial support for carbon reduction actions at home and abroad.
Full-chain innovation breakthrough: Deeply empowering the transformation of the energy system
The white paper emphasizes the need to promote the full-chain development of hydrogen energy from production, storage, transportation to application, focus on breaking through the technical bottlenecks and cost obstacles in hydrogen energy development, and actively cultivate new scenarios and models for hydrogen energy application. This not only provides new impetus for the green transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, but also adds flexibility to the construction of a new energy system, and is an important part of achieving profound changes in the energy system.
Deepening international cooperation: Contributing a Green and low-carbon Chinese solution
The white paper points out that China continues to provide the world with high-quality and efficient energy and low-carbon equipment products, and expands green and low-carbon innovation cooperation with an open attitude. Relying on the progress of hydrogen energy technology and the accumulation of industrialization experience, China will provide other developing countries with referenceable models and technical support through channels such as the green development of the Belt and Road Initiative, and jointly promote the global green and low-carbon transformation process.
The rapid development of China's hydrogen energy industry is a vivid practice of implementing the national strategy of "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality". With the continuous release of policy dividends and the in-depth advancement of the full-chain development of "production, storage, transportation and application", China's hydrogen energy industry is expected to continue to unleash its huge potential and play a more crucial role in the global energy revolution.
