As an important clean energy, hydrogen energy is considered to be one of the important carriers of global energy transformation and development, and an important component of the future national energy system. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles represent an important development direction of the new energy vehicle industry and are gradually becoming a key technology path to realize the vision of zero-carbon transportation. In recent years, Chongqing has relied on its rich hydrogen energy resources and mature automobile industry foundation to accelerate the research, development and industrialization of key technologies and products for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Bosch Hydrogen Power Systems (Chongqing) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the "joint venture"), a joint venture between the Group and Bosch, is a leading company in the "Western Hydrogen Valley" demonstration project. With its green, efficient and innovative fuel cells and heavy-duty electric drive axles, Products such as these have become representatives of Chongqing’s new quality productivity and have received widespread attention from Chinese and foreign leaders.

As a central industrial city in southwest China, Chongqing is not only the starting point of the New Western Land-Sea Corridor, but also one of the starting points of China-Europe freight trains. This provides a location advantage for the close cooperation between Qingling Group and Bosch in the field of hydrogen energy. Strategic plans such as the Chengdu-Chongqing Hydrogen Corridor, the Yangtze River Economic Belt Hydrogen Corridor, and the New Western Land-Sea Corridor Hydrogen Corridor provide huge potential markets for the operation of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. At the same time, Chongqing’s abundant hydrogen resources and high-quality and low-price hydrogen are important guarantees for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles to achieve total ownership cost competitiveness.
In 2022, two main fuel cell systems, 76 kW and 134 kW, will be officially unveiled, allowing customers to see the "hydrogen core". In 2023, the group's hydrogen-powered trucks, high-power fuel cell systems, and heavy-duty electric axle products exhibited at the Chongqing West Fair and Smart Expo attracted industry attention. In the same year, the joint venture's new factory was officially put into operation, which will better promote the commercialization process of hydrogen energy technology and drive the development of the hydrogen energy industry chain.
Adhering to its vision of a "hydrogen future" and its firm determination to develop hydrogen power technology, the Group will continue to join hands with Bosch to integrate resources, complement each other's advantages, continuously deepen cooperation between the two parties in technology, industry, products, and markets, and provide customers with comprehensive local solutions. Support and services to help the automotive industry achieve carbon neutrality goals.
