Traversing mountains and rivers, hydrogen powers China! Setting off from Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, the Hydrogen‑Powered Journey Across China heads west all the way to Lhasa, Xizang. Drawing on the long‑distance expedition as its canvas and hydrogen‑energy technology as its brush, this initiative launches a popular‑science campaign for hydrogen energy among the general public. Meanwhile, it conducts on‑site verification of the reliability and practicality of hydrogen‑fueled two‑wheel vehicles under long‑distance and complex operating conditions.
NEWTEQ takes an honourable part in key segments of the event: from Wulong District to downtown Chongqing and onward to Chongqing University. Leveraging its core technological strengths, the company contributes to the popularization of hydrogen energy and provides full‑range support for the hydrogen‑energy cycling team as they traverse mountains and valleys. Spanning diverse landforms including plains, hills, plateaus and mountainous regions, as well as humid‑hot basins and high‑altitude low‑temperature zones, this cross‑country expedition subjects hydrogen‑fueled two‑wheel vehicles to rigorous all‑round tests for power output stability, long‑range performance and adaptability to extreme environments.
Serving as the core technical backbone for this long‑distance hydrogen‑energy cycling event, the hydrogen‑fueled two‑wheel vehicles are equipped with the NTFCU series integrated programmable all‑in‑one power manager, independently developed and manufactured by Shandong NEWTEQ Power Technology Co., Ltd. Referred to as the “intelligent nerve centre” and core component of hydrogen fuel cell systems, the NTFCU undertakes overall management and precise control for low‑power fuel cells and each system component. It acts as the linchpin to guarantee consistent and reliable operation of the hydrogen‑energy system throughout the journey.
Featuring intelligent control of cooling branches, multi‑protocol data communication, full‑link fault diagnosis, high‑efficiency electric power conversion and other core capabilities, the unit adapts to dynamic power demands under complex working conditions in real time and precisely regulates system status. It readily copes with drastic shifts in altitude and temperature as well as variable road conditions along the route, delivering solid technical support for consistent and powerful vehicle power output. As one of NEWTEQ’s flagship commercial products, it achieves a monthly production capacity of over 5,000 units.
With years of in‑depth expertise in power converters for hydrogen fuel cell systems, NEWTEQ adheres to the philosophy of Technology‑Oriented, Innovation‑Driven. It continuously optimizes product stability and environmental adaptability, building solid technical know‑how and rich industrialization experience. Led by multiple overseas‑returned PhDs and industry specialists, the core team boasts more than ten years of application experience in third‑generation silicon carbide semiconductors and masters pivotal technologies for hydrogen fuel cell electrical systems. Its flagship products are widely deployed in heavy‑duty trucks, logistics vehicles, UAVs and other sectors, serving more than 300 enterprises worldwide.
By supporting this cross‑country cycling expedition, NEWTEQ draws on proven technical reserves and dependable product performance to secure stable endurance for vehicles amid varied road conditions and sharp altitude‑temperature fluctuations, successfully completing reliability validation under complex long‑distance scenarios. This field trial not only puts NEWTEQ’s core technologies to practical assessment, but also demonstrates the corporate commitment to advancing hydrogen‑energy popularization and accelerating the commercial roll‑out of the hydrogen industry.
Going forward, NEWTEQ will keep deep‑driving R&D of core hydrogen fuel cell technologies and pursue continuous innovations. Through higher‑quality products and robust technical strengths, it will facilitate high‑quality development of the hydrogen‑energy industry and contribute greater NEWTEQ‑branded momentum toward China’s dual‑carbon goals and green low‑carbon transition.
We sincerely wish the Hydrogen‑Powered Journey Across China a successful conclusion, and wish all cyclists a safe arrival in Lhasa!
