Recently, the China Fuel Cell Vehicle Conference took place in Beijing, where representatives from national ministries including the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Science and Technology, National Development and Reform Commission, and National Energy Administration, as well as delegates from five exemplary city clusters in the field of fuel cell vehicles, industry experts, and corporate luminaries graced the occasion with their presence, amounting to a magnificent gathering of over 300 individuals.

The conference unveiled the "Joint Initiative for China's Hydrogen Energy Highway Development " and held the "Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Hydrogen Energy High-Speed Scene Launch Ceremony."  

GWM-FTXT was invited to participate in the ceremony and held the "Hydrogen High-speed Demonstration Line Departure Ceremony" on behalf of the Hebei demonstration city cluster. " Over ten hydrogen-powered wing van trucks and fuel cell auto carriers loaded with goods got on the highway, symbolizing GWM-FTXT's achievement in longer transport distances and a wider range of scenarios in hydrogen transport solutions. This milestone provides valuable insights and references for promoting the large-scale application of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in China and establishing demonstration scenarios for hydrogen-powered expressways.

To date, GWM-FTXT has taken the lead in building the world's first 49-ton hydrogen fuel cell heavy-duty truck transportation route in China, alongside multiple demonstration scenarios such as urban construction waste transportation, high-speed transportation for automobile parts and vehicles, and green logistics for the steel industry. Moreover, in conjunction with industry partners, multiple hydrogen refueling stations and comprehensive hydrogen-electric energy stations have been constructed in regions such as Tangshan, Baoding, and Tianjin, thereby making a substantive contribution to the development and construction of China's fuel cell vehicle demonstration cities.

This event marks a milestone in the commercialization of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in the Chinese market, garnering attention and coverage from CCTV (China Central Television). Recommendations from the State Council and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission advocate the accelerated construction of hydrogen refueling stations on the highway network, the initiation of China's hydrogen-powered expressways, and the establishment of comprehensive demonstration routes connecting hydrogen highways across regions. This initiative aims to propel the large-scale adoption of fuel cell commercial vehicles for long-distance and inter-regional applications.

Presently, the development of China's fuel cell vehicle industry has entered a phase of accelerated growth.
