Also located in the China (Beijing) Pilot Free Trade Zone High-End Industries Area, it covers an area of 4,800 square meters and has a total floor area of 1,920 square meters.

The project was successfully acquired by Air Products and Chemicals Inc. As the world's largest commercial hydrogen provider, Air Products has fostered globally leading technology and equipment in liquid hydrogen and provided its clients with comprehensive services in production, storage and transportation.

Air Products has taken part in the building of over 250 hydrogen-filling station projects in more than 20 countries, designed and built the world's most advanced storage tanks and transport vehicles of liquid hydrogen, and obtained over 50 relevant patent rights.

It is anticipated that the new project will meet the demand of approximately 300 hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles on a daily basis upon its completion.

In addition, the project will fundamentally promote the high-quality development and green and low-carbon transformation of the capital city and help realize the country's carbon emissions peak and carbon neutrality goals.
