The 2020 United Nations Development Programme Hydrogen Industry Conference, with the theme of "Developing Green Hydrogen Energy and Boosting the World Economy," was successfully held at the Qiaoshan Cultural Center in Nanhai, Foshan from October 19th to 22nd, 2020, hosted by the United Nations Development Programme Representative Office in China and China Automotive Technology Research Center Co., Ltd.

From October 19 to 22, 2020, the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) Hydrogen Industry Conference 2020 with the theme of "developing green hydrogen energy and boosting the world economy", took place in Qiaoshan cultural center, Nanhai district of Foshan City, hosted by the representative office of the United Nations Development Program in China and China Automotive Technology Research Center Co., Ltd.

The International Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology Conference is a world-class annual industry event, with nearly 300 participating companies showcasing advanced technologies and achievements in hydrogen infrastructure, hydrogen production, storage, transportation, hydrogen utilization, fuel cells, fuel cell vehicle manufacturing, and other areas. The conference also invited representatives from relevant national ministries, United Nations agencies, and other organizations to deliver speeches. Several academicians and leading domestic and foreign enterprises gave keynote speeches, providing a platform for in-depth exchanges in hydrogen energy technology and fuel cell industry at home and abroad, promoting industrial cooperation and technological progress.

The international hydrogen energy and fuel cell technology conference is the major annual industry event, and nearly 300 companies participated in this conference. The exhibition covers advanced technologies and achievements in hydrogen infrastructure, hydrogen production, storage, transportation, hydrogen utilization, fuel cell and fuel cell vehicle manufacturing. During this event, a number of domestic and foreign academicians and leading enterprises were invited to give keynote speeches in order to build a platform for in-depth exchange of hydrogen energy technology and fuel cell industry at home and abroad, and to promote industrial cooperation and technological progress. Furthermore, representatives of relevant national ministries and commissions, as well as UN agencies, were invited to address the conference.

At the technology exhibition, the SEC100 and SEC200 series electrocatalysts independently developed by Zhongzi Catalysis, as well as the SME series membrane electrodes, attracted many hydrogen fuel cell experts, scholars, and industry exhibitors from home and abroad to visit and exchange technology. The electrocatalysts independently developed by Zhongzi Catalysis have the characteristics of small particle size and narrow particle size distribution, high activity, good consistency, and long service life. Based on the independently developed SEC series electrocatalysts, Zhongzi Catalysis has also developed SME membrane electrode products, which have the characteristics of thin thickness, high power density, and low platinum loading capacity, and can be customized and developed according to different customer needs.

At the technology exhibition, SEC100 and SEC200 series electrocatalysts and SME series membrane electrode assemblies(MEA) , which were independently developed by Sinocat, attracted the visit of many domestic and international experts, scholars and industry exhibitors. The Sinocat electrocatalyst has the characteristics of small particle size, narrow particle size distribution, high activity, high consistency and high durability . Based on the SEC series electrocatalysts, Sinocat has moreover developed the SME membrane electrode assemblies (MEA), which have the characteristics of thinness, high power density and low platinum loading. In addition, the electrocatalyst and membrane electrode assemblies (MEA) can be developed and customized according to the different needs of customers.

Zhongzi Catalysis has achieved good results at the United Nations Development Programme Hydrogen Industry Conference. While showcasing Zhongzi's independently developed technology to peers and universities at home and abroad, it has also gained a deeper understanding of the market and customer needs, pointing out the direction and establishing goals for future technology research and development, and preparing to face more intense industry competition and challenges.

Sinocat has achieved good results in the UNDP Hydrogen Industry Conference. While demonstrating the self-developed technologies to industries and universities, both domestic and abroad, we have further understood the needs of customers and hydrogen fuel cell market to steer the direction of the future research and development . Meanwhile Sinocat is ready to face the fiercer competition and challenges.

Hydrogen energy and fuel cell technology have enormous potential. As a low-carbon and clean energy carrier, hydrogen can reduce the proportion of fossil fuels in China's energy structure and play a crucial role in achieving China's 2060 carbon neutrality goal. For this reason, Zhongzi Catalysis is well prepared and will fully cater to and assist the 14th Five Year Plan to be launched early next year.

Hydrogen energy and fuel cell technology have great potential. As a low-carbon and clean energy carrier, hydrogen energy can reduce the proportion of use of the fossil fuels in China's energy structure and can play an important role in achieving the goal of carbon neutrality in 2060. To this end, Sinocat is ready to engage actively in the fourteenth five-year plan which will be launched at the beginning of next year.

Against the background that the COVID-19 has not dissipated and the global economy is in a serious recession. Zhongzi Catalysis is willing to further strengthen its cooperation with upstream and downstream partners in the industry chain, accelerate the commercialization of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, contribute to energy conservation and emission reduction in China and even the world, and work together with multiple parties to develop green hydrogen energy and boost the world economy.

Under thebackground of continuation of novel coronavirus pandemic and serious recessionof the global economy, Sinocat is willing to further strengthen its cooperationwith upstream and downstream partners in the industrial chain to accelerate thecommercialization of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, and contribute to energyconservation and emission reduction for China and even for the world. Togetherwith many parties, Sinocat has the ambition to develop green hydrogen energyand boost the world economy.
