Hydrogen energy is constantly entering the core vision of national development.
Since 2022, General Secretary Xi Jinping has given clear instructions on the development of hydrogen energy at least seven times in important meetings and inspections, anchoring the direction of this future energy track and injecting strong policy momentum.
From March 30 to April 1 this year, Li Qiang, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Premier of the State Council, once again focused on hydrogen energy during his research in Sichuan.
At the Yalong River Basin Hydropower Development Co., Ltd., Li Qiang learned about the development of the water and scenery integration base and listened to the report on the construction of the new power grid in Sichuan Province. He pointed out that the development of a new-generation power grid is of great significance for ensuring energy security and promoting green development. We should actively explore new grid architectures, technologies, and services; improve network infrastructure; enhance system coordination and regulation capabilities; strengthen the ability to meet diverse energy demands; and build a new type of power grid that is secure and reliable, green and low-carbon, robust and resilient, and intelligent and flexible.
carbon cable hydrogen energy network is sorted out according to public information, and the detailed information is sorted out as follows:
in terms of enterprise research, in may 2023, premier Li Qiang went to weichai group to investigate and inspect 10,000 production lines of hydrogen fuel cell engines; In December of the same year, Premier Li Qiang visited Bosch Hydrogen Power System (Chongqing) Co., Ltd.; In June 2024, during a visit to Australia, premier Li Qiang visited the Fordsk Metal Group’s Future Industry Center in Perth and visited the hydrogen heavy truck, liquid hydrogen mobile refueling truck and battery electric locomotive developed by the group.
In terms of public statements, on March 27, 2024, Premier Li Qiang held talks with Dutch Prime Minister Rutte, who was on a working visit to China, at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse. Li Qiang pointed out that the two sides should continue to expand the scale of economic and trade cooperation, tap the potential for cooperation in artificial intelligence, green transformation, silver hair economy and other fields, and strengthen innovative cooperation in offshore wind power, photovoltaic power generation, hydrogen energy and other fields, so as to provide stronger impetus for the development of the two countries.
On March 5, 2026, Premier Li Qiang proposed to set up a national low-carbon transformation fund to cultivate new growth points such as hydrogen energy and green fuels when introducing the government’s work tasks in 2026 in the government work report.
From March 30 to April 1, 2026, Premier Li Qiang conducted research in Sichuan. In the investigation of Yalong River Basin Hydropower Development Co., Ltd., Premier Li Qiang pointed out that Sichuan is an important clean energy base in China. It is necessary to promote the complementarity of water, scenery, hydrogen and natural gas, take the lead in the development and utilization of clean energy and the construction of new power grid, actively promote the construction of new energy system, and better promote the development of related industries.
