The 24th Winter Olympic Games (2022 Beijing Winter Olympics) are about to conclude.

Low-carbon management is an important component of the “Green Olympics” of the Beijing Winter Olympics, where the Congress built a low-carbon transport system to promote electric and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in all areas, in accordance with the principles of “electricity in the plains and hydrogen in the mountains”.

Of the total number of guaranteed vehicles at the time of the race, 84.9 per cent were energy-efficient and clean-energy vehicles, the highest of all winter Olympics. (Source: Beijing Winter Olympics Low Carbon Management Report (Pre-Catch))

It's covered by ice, and it's waiting for the Utun hydrogen bus.

Of these, a bus with a “hydrotom” FCS80 fuel cell system, developed by SPIC autonomously, provides low-carbon travel services in several areas.

Sunwise provided 50 of them with hydrogen-based systems, with hydrogen cylinders, hydrogen-storage cylinders and bottle-port valves working in a sub-40°C extreme cold environment. The hydrogen tank group used a bottom-horizon approach. The vehicle-borne hydrogen system, while satisfying the high degree of integration, was subjected to a rigorous test of complex weather conditions and road conditions in the race area.

The driver of the Olympic line, B08886F, explained that the bus was fast and long-duration with hydrogen, that it was feasible to travel more than 500 kilometres in about 8 to 10 minutes, that it was safe, smooth and fast in the ice-covered extremes of the race, and that it had an excellent driving experience.

In a test of the safety and stability of a vehicle-borne hydrogen system in a cold and snowy environment covered by the Beijing Winter Olympics, Sunwise handed over a satisfactory response to contribute hydrogen capacity to the Beijing Winter Olympic Games “Green Olympics, Low Carbon Management” to the “Whitehead Pact” of hydrogen energy and ice.

The race is coming to an end, but Sunwise will continue to help our country achieve the “3060” double carbon target with hydrogen energy, working with his colleagues towards a hydrogen-energy society and a zero carbon future.
