Hydrogen energy is a strategic emerging industry strongly supported by the country, and Dingzhou has a good foundation and great potential for developing the hydrogen energy industry. On July 5, 2023, Zhang Tao, Secretary of Dingzhou Municipal Party Committee, stressed at the promotion meeting of the city's hydrogen energy transportation demonstration application that we should seize the opportunity of building the national hydrogen energy demonstration city group and Hebei fuel cell vehicle demonstration application city group, emancipate our minds, forge ahead, promote the application of hydrogen energy transportation demonstration, accelerate the development of hydrogen energy industry projects, extend the chain to supplement the chain, expand the application scenario, and accelerate the construction of Beijing Tianjin Hebei hydrogen energy manufacturing base and demonstration application city, To lay a solid foundation for writing the chapter of Chinese path to modernization in Dingzhou. Zhang Caifang, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Mayor, presided over the meeting.

At the promotion meeting, Hebei Xuyang Energy Co., Ltd. and Changan Automobile Co., Ltd. introduced the development prospect of hydrogen energy and the promotion of hydrogen energy application scenarios. The main leaders of the Municipal Development and Reform Bureau, the Ecological Environment Bureau, the Transportation Bureau, the Finance Bureau, the Science and Technology Bureau, the Urban Management Bureau and other relevant units made speeches on supporting the development of the hydrogen energy industry. Zhang Tao and Zhang Caifang listened attentively to their speeches and had in-depth exchanges with everyone.

Zhang Tao pointed out that all levels and departments should have a deep understanding of the significant significance of developing the hydrogen energy industry, take the construction of national hydrogen energy demonstration city clusters as an opportunity, seize opportunities, amplify advantages, plan development paths, scientifically and reasonably layout, bravely explore and practice, and focus on building Beijing Tianjin Hebei hydrogen energy demonstration application cities. Zhang Tao requested that we should vigorously promote the diversified application of hydrogen energy in transportation, energy, industry and other fields, expand the application of urban public transport, sanitation vehicles, intercity passenger transport and other scenarios, safely and orderly promote the construction of supporting infrastructure such as Hydrogen station, and form a vivid situation in which applications drive the market and the market promotes the industry. We should learn from the experience of advanced regions, formulate and introduce relevant management measures, and actively explore new modes and paths for hydrogen energy transportation operation; We should proactively connect with higher-level departments, strive for more funding and policy support, and promote the high-quality development of the hydrogen energy industry. We need to focus on the development of the hydrogen energy industry, attract investment around the entire industrial chain of production, storage, transportation, processing, and research, further improve the industrial chain, expand application scenarios, build competitive industrial clusters, and focus on building a Beijing Tianjin Hebei hydrogen energy manufacturing base and demonstration application city. We must adhere to government leadership and enterprise leadership, fully support the research and development, application, and market promotion of hydrogen energy in Xuyang and Chang'an, Hebei, and seize a new track and commanding point in the development of green hydrogen energy industry. We must firmly establish industrial thinking, research industries, care about industries, support industries, and accelerate the formation of an industrial development pattern led by leading industries, driven by major projects, supported by backbone enterprises, and driven by park platforms.
