The municipal government of Chengdu has unveiled a new policy aimed at fostering strategic emerging industries, with a specific focus on accelerating the development of green hydrogen energy. The initiative is part of a broader effort to build a national advanced manufacturing hub and enhance regional cooperation.
Chengdu aims to cultivate and expand its strategic emerging sectors. This involves implementing industrial innovation projects to accelerate the formation and growth of artificial intelligence, the low-altitude economy, and green hydrogen energy. Additionally, the city plans to enhance the supporting capabilities of integrated circuits, new displays, and aerospace, while also promoting the capacity and upgrade of intelligent connected vehicles, rail transit, and biomedicine. The goal is to foster new industrial pillars and establish new landmarks in the manufacturing sector.
The city will also focus on innovating and opening up application scenarios. It plans to construct a multi-dimensional "testing ground" for innovative applications, concentrating on areas such as urban governance, smart transportation, smart healthcare, and smart tourism. This will involve cultivating and opening a batch of comprehensive major scenarios, integrated industry-specific scenarios, and high-value, targeted niche scenarios. Furthermore, Chengdu will deepen actions for the large-scale application of new technologies, products, and scenarios. This includes promoting the iterative validation of new technologies and products like smart robots, flying cars, hydrogen-powered transportation equipment, and high-level autonomous vehicles in real-world settings to accelerate their industrialization.
Chengdu will deepen industrial synergy and linkage with Chongqing, the other core city in the region. This collaboration will advance coordinated development in industries such as electronics and information technology, equipment manufacturing, biomedicine, and specialty consumer goods, aiming to rapidly cultivate internationally competitive advanced manufacturing clusters. The two cities will jointly build bases for automotive industry R&D, production, and manufacturing, a western health industry base, and a demonstration zone for integrated industrial internet development. A key aspect of this cooperation is the joint creation of the Chengdu-Chongqing Hydrogen Corridor, alongside initiatives for an electric corridor, an intelligent mobility corridor, and a low-altitude economy corridor.
