The Development Trend of and Suggestions for China's Hydrogen Energy Industry

Driven by the current round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, and based on a consensus among countries around the world, the world’s energy landscape is undergoing profound adjustments to promote a transition to clean, low-carbon energy in order to cope with global climate change. As a clean and carbon-free secondary energy source, hydrogen energy is an important component of the energy strategy in various countries. Fuel cell technology is also of great importance in directing the current global energy technology revolution. China has clarified its sustainable energy goals: to peak its carbon dioxide emissions [1] and achieve carbon neutrality [2]. With thorough development of technology and the industry, hydrogen energy will play a significant role in achieving these goals.
