Recently, Sunwise (“Sunwise”), a South China regional subsidiary, Guangzhou Sunwise Hydrogen Energy Technology Ltd. (hereinafter “Change Sunwise”), entered into a contract for a total of 500 vehicle-mounted hydrogen supply systems, which will be accompanied by 31 tons of hydrogen fuel cell mudheads purchased by the Environmentally Sound Industry Investment Group Ltd. of Science City (Huangzhou). The product will take the form of a batch delivery, which is expected to be completed by the end of the year, and the project is now proceeding in an orderly manner. The operation of 500 hydrogen fuel cell mudheads has been calculated to reduce annual emissions of pollutants such as carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides by approximately 36,000 tons, of which 703.3 tons are nitrogen oxides.

Sunwise always puts hydrogen safety first. The 9-car fleet was equipped with nine safety test requirements for the hydrogen system, six safety performance indicators for the hydrogen system with light quantification, low risk of hydrogen leakage, resilience to shocks, brittle resistance, installation of disassembly facilities and long-term performance tests for all types of climate. At the same time, system tubes can be designed to remove vibrations and heat swelling and cooling effects.

Sunwise has always been an autonomous innovation, and the system's apostated modules, bottle valves and hydrogen system controllers are produced entirely by Sunwise autonomously, with an autonomous national production rate of 70 per cent for core parts. At the same time, Sunwise has led or participated in the preparation of nine hydrogen energy and fuel cell State tenders, which have always been at the forefront of the industry with a forward-looking, pointed and authoritative vision.

The development of the hydrogen energy industry in Guangzhou has been at the forefront of the country, and hydrogen energy has been a strategic and emerging industry in Guangzhou. With the gradual start of the demonstration phase for fuel cell cars, fuel cell technology will be extended to deeper and wider use of tractors, sanitation vehicles, dump trucks, etc.
