In this recent report Global and China Fuel Cell Industry Report, 2020, we analyze the advances and tendencies of fuel cell industry in China and beyond.

China Remains Weak in Core Components and Materials of Fuel Cell with Heavy Dependence on the Imported

Although with the world's advanced fuel cell engine technology, China still has weak foundation in supply chain of fuel cell engine system, having yet to build a mature components supply system. The country still needs to import most of core components and key materials including catalyst, proton exchange membrane and carbon paper, and falls far behind its foreign counterparts in technologies from membrane electrode and bipolar plate to air compressor and hydrogen circulation pump. Chinese companies still need breakthroughs in basic materials, core technologies and key components, especially in commercialization of key parts like membrane electrode.

China's fuel cell vehicle promotion: commercial vehicles go first

In the promotion of fuel cell vehicles in China, fuel cell commercial vehicles take precedence over the rest, due to a combination of factors such as fuel cell technology, cost, and infrastructure of hydrogen refueling stations. 100 models of fuel cell commercial vehicles are among the fuel cell vehicles listed in the Catalog of Recommended Road Vehicles released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China in 2019 but no fuel cell passenger car is on the list.

Over the past five years, only SAIC, Chery and BAIC have showed fuel cell passenger cars, most of which were still prototypes, except a SAIC Roewe 750 car that was licensed in Weifang city of Shandong in April 2020. According to fuel cell vehicle promotion programs across China, buses, logistics vehicles, and special vehicles prevail but passenger cars are not taken seriously.

As concerns development route of fuel cell vehicles, foreign countries adopt the strategy of developing commercial vehicles and passenger cars in sync while China prioritizes commercial vehicles over passenger cars. In the next three or five years, fuel cell systems will be massively used in commercial heavy-duty and logistics vehicles in China, and passenger car will be an obscure corner still.

Product support programs of key suppliers of fuel cell components mirror China's strategy of commercial vehicles first, passenger car second. SinoHytec's flagship product, hydrogen fuel cell engine system, targets commercial vehicle manufacturers who are early entrants in the fuel cell vehicle market, including Shenlong Bus, Beiqi Foton, Yutong Bus, Zhongtong Bus and Geely Commercial Vehicle.
