On the morning of February 19, a symposium on Lüliang City’s hydrogen energy industry plan was successfully held at Pengfei Group. Attending the meeting were Ren Hongzhong, Deputy Director of the Lüliang Municipal Development and Reform Commission; Li Wei, Secretary of the School of Economics and Management at Taiyuan University of Technology; Ma Kai, General Manager of Hydrogen Energy at Meijin Energy Group, along with other relevant leaders. Ma Xiaolong, Assistant to the President of Pengfei Group, welcomed the attendees and chaired the session.
At the symposium, participants engaged in discussions on the preparation and submission of Lüliang City’s special plan for the development of the hydrogen energy industry.
Li Wei stated that Pengfei Group, with its robust economic strength, well‑structured industrial chain, comprehensive hydrogen‑energy industry roadmap, and strong capabilities in hydrogen production, storage, transportation, refueling, and research and development, is fully positioned to take the next decisive step and lead the forefront of the sector. Furthermore, in formulating the overall plan, the group will leverage Lüliang’s distinctive strengths while drawing on peer proposals that have already been approved, clearly define objectives and tasks, and systematically reorganize data and information, thereby using high‑quality planning to propel resource‑dependent regions toward leapfrog development.
Ren Hongzhong outlined the plans and initiatives of enterprises, with Pengfei as a representative, for developing Lüliang City’s hydrogen energy industry. He expressed the hope that experts, from the perspective of formulating the province-wide hydrogen energy industry plan, would tailor a precise roadmap for Lüliang’s hydrogen energy sector, taking into account the specific circumstances of Pengfei and Meijin, thereby turning the hydrogen energy industry into a powerful catalyst for Lüliang’s transformation and development.
Ma Xiaolong summarized the meeting, noting that Lüliang City boasts abundant resource advantages for hydrogen production, including industrial off‑gas rich in hydrogen, electrolysis powered by wind and solar energy, coalbed methane, and coal‑to‑hydrogen. In particular, hydrogen produced from industrial off‑gas offers a distinct cost‑competitive edge. Moreover, Lüliang enjoys extensive logistics networks for bulk commodities such as coal, coke, and aluminum, with a heavy‑truck fleet exceeding 60,000 vehicles, providing a clear advantage in real‑world application scenarios. Currently, Pengfei Group is collaborating with leading enterprises like Shanghai Shenneng and PetroChina to plan and build integrated hydrogen refueling stations. Meanwhile, Mayor Zhang Guangyong of Lüliang has articulated a well‑defined strategy for developing the city’s hydrogen economy, backed by substantial incentives and support measures. Across the country, Lüliang stands out as one of the regions closest to achieving market‑driven commercialization of the hydrogen industry. We are confident in our ability to strengthen and expand Lüliang’s hydrogen sector, turning it into a premier hub for hydrogen supply, equipment manufacturing, and R&D—valued at hundreds of billions of yuan.
We hope that Secretary Li Wei’s team will carry out the planning in accordance with the overall strategic framework set by the municipal government leadership.
Prior to the symposium, the visiting delegation also conducted on-site inspections at Pengfei Coking Plant, the Methanol Plant, the Pengwan Hydrogen Port Hydrogen Energy Industrial Park, and the 5G+ Central Dispatch and Command Management Platform.
