On 22 March, Sunwise (“Sunwise”) and Shanghai SHPT Inc. (“SHPT”) formally signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the SAIC Group. The Vice-President and Chief Engineer of the SAIC Group, Xiaojie Lu, General Manager of SHPT, Deputy General Manager Cheng Wei, Deputy General Manager Lee Feng, Deputy Chief Engineer Yong Jung Jie, Deputy General Manager of SPIC Yangtze Technology Ltd., Chen Tianjin, General Manager of Hydrogen Power (Beijing) Technology Services Ltd., and Sunwise Chairman Gao Dingyun and Deputy General Manager Yu attended.

The signing of the contract was important for accelerating the industrialization of hydrogen and fuel cells on both sides. Based on resources such as technological advantages, regional layout, after-sales services, both sides will provide competitive solutions, product prices and services, share markets and promote hydrogen energy applications. At the same time, the two sides each developed a standardized product design and a standardized package of fuel cell systems plus hydrogen storage systems, which together moved to the market, resulting in large-scale applications.
Sunwise was mainly engaged in research and development and industrialization of key technologies for hydrogen energy applications, covering hydrogen energy, nuclear energy and distributed energy, and was a leading supplier of overall solutions for hydrogen energy systems in the country, completing the construction of more than 100 hydrogen-added stations, such as the Anting Ghetanium Station and the Shiboga Hydrogen Station, and completed the construction of the Shanghai Blue Gold Mountain Chemical Region Mother Station, with gas supply capacity. Sunwise, as the country's company for the continuous development and promotion of hydrogen-for-hydrogen technologies, has undertaken a number of major national and Shanghai-based scientific and technological projects, with the editor-in-chief or participant in dozens of hydrogen-related criteria, with the capacity to supply integrated solutions for system design and integration of core products and the provision of technical services.
In recent years, SHPT has acquired ownership of core critical technologies for fuel cell systems, reactors and core components under a “two-wheel drive” strategic layout, while at the same time achieving national production and industrialization in the autonomous development and manufacture of membrane electrodes. Currently, SHPT has completed the development of multi-fuel cell reactors, systems and hydrogen storage systems products, with a fuel cell product capacity of 6 kW-2600kW, which is widely used for commercialization in nearly 20 cities across the country in a variety of areas such as passenger vehicles, urban buses, road buses, light and medium heavy trucks, forklifts and trailers; 35 MPa and 70MPa storage system products have been developed with high reliability and environmental adaptability.
At this stage, while the scale of the demonstration operation of the fuel cell vehicle has been increasing, with significant demonstration effects and a gradual increase in autonomy, bottlenecks such as inadequate construction of the hydrogen end-of-end infrastructure, high hydrogen gas costs and high cost of the equipment end TCO have continued to constrain the subsequent scale operation process. Precipitation, expansion of hydrogen energy supply, and improvement of the ecology of the hydrogen energy industry require the convergence and synergy of industrial chain enterprises.
In the future, Sunwise and SHPT will work closely with more partners to create better-powered, market-competitive products and services, to tap into the commercial value of the whole chain of hydrogen energy, to build shared hydrogen energy ecology, and to empower them to meet the goal of “carbon peaks, carbon neutrality”.
