Guide the existing refuelling and filling stations to be upgraded and expanded, and introduce charging, power exchange, hydrogen refuelling and photovoltaic, etc., to innovate the "oil, gas, hydrogen, electricity and non-hydrogen" integrated energy service model. Carry out pilot projects of large-scale hydrogen production from surplus water and electricity, promote the construction of Pengzhou electrolytic water green hydrogen plant Phase I and Phase II, and build small-scale hydrogen production and hydrogen refuelling stations in Pidu, Longquanyi and other areas on a pilot basis. Promote the layout of hydrogen refuelling stations along highways such as Chengyu, Chengdemian, Chengya, Chengzhi and Chengnan. By 2025, 30 hydrogen refuelling stations of various types will be built.

2. Expand the demonstration and application of fuel cell vehicles. The city has issued a fuel cell vehicle promotion plan and a number of policies to support the promotion and application of fuel cell vehicles, declared a fuel cell vehicle demonstration city group, and strived to create a national fuel cell vehicle demonstration city. Relying on the demonstration lines of hydrogen fuel cell bus application in Pidu District, Longquanyi District and Xinjin District, promote the demonstration operation of fuel cell vehicles in urban bus scenarios. Relying on intercity transport, tourism passenger transport and other areas of demonstration, demonstrate and promote intercity buses, freight heavy trucks and other heavy-duty fuel cell commercial vehicles, forming a green "hydrogen corridor" with Chengdu as the hub and radiating within Sichuan. By 2025, we will strive to promote 5,000 new hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.

3. Achieve a breakthrough in technological innovation. The hydrogen consumption of hydrogen fuel cell buses will be less than 5.5kg/100km, and the core technologies such as the life span of on-board electric reactor, volume power density of electric reactor and low temperature starting will reach the domestic advanced level.
