Chinese firms must integrate mobility supply chain
Consortiums are needed in order to deploy solutions for government transport contracts
Companies along different parts of the hydrogen supply chain need to work more closely to present integrated solutions for the transport sector, industry experts say. The hydrogen mobility supply chain involves multiple companies and multiple pieces of equipment, according to Grace Quan, CEO of Canada-based Hydrogen in Motion. “The consolidation can be quite complex”, she told the Asia-Pacific Hydrogen Summit last week. “Industry collaboration is really key to getting a solution for the end-customer.” Transport operators that pursue hydrogen mobility tend to focus on propulsion technologies such as fuel cells, at the risk of overlooking the cost of the upstream supply chain, she says.
