Exhibition Introduction
The Value of Exhibiting at the China International Hydrogen Energy and Fuel Cell Exhibition
- The Foshan Hydrogen Exhibition (CHFE) is one of China’s largest and most prestigious specialized exhibitions dedicated to hydrogen energy. Since its inception in 2017, the exhibition has been successfully held nine times, co-located with the China Hydrogen Energy Industry Conference, and organized by the China Center for International Economic and Technical Exchanges. Rooted in Foshan’s Nanhai District—the “Capital of China’s Hydrogen Industry”—it has become the most authoritative and influential industry event in the field.
- The core value of participation lies in its role as a precise platform connecting resources across the entire hydrogen energy value chain. CHFE covers every stage of the hydrogen energy lifecycle—from production and storage to transportation, refueling, and end-use—providing seamless integration of core components through to final applications, and bridging technological innovation with real-world implementation. In 2025, the ninth edition brought together over 350 domestic and international enterprises, spanning 21,000 square meters, and attracting more than 20,000 professional visitors, including international delegates from 25 countries and regions, offering exhibitors an efficient platform for business networking.
- The exhibition establishes an international trade platform linking global markets, supporting companies’ overseas expansion strategies. In 2025, the event drew enterprise delegations from the UK, Canada, Australia, Japan, South Korea, the Netherlands, Chile, and other nations, who showcased local hydrogen projects and market access policies. Specialized international business negotiation sessions were held, enabling over 100 international buyer groups to engage in one-on-one discussions, thus providing exhibitors with targeted opportunities to enter overseas markets. Companies such as Feichi Technology, Guohydro Technology, and Re-shape Energy leveraged the exhibition to demonstrate their global competitiveness, with Re-shape Energy reporting a 360.3% year-over-year surge in overseas revenue during mid-2025.
- The exhibition keeps pace with the diversification trend of hydrogen application scenarios, fostering a hub for deep integration among industry, academia, research, and end-users. In 2025, the exhibition introduced three distinctive thematic sections: the Hydrogen Health and Hydrogen Technology section highlighted everyday applications such as hydrogen water generators and medical aids; the Natural Gas–Hydrogen Blending Technology and Equipment section focused on emerging energy integration pathways; and the Hydrogen-Powered Boat section demonstrated the use of hydrogen propulsion in aquatic settings. Concurrently, high-profile events like the HySpace Innovation Forum and the Hydrogen Listening Theater brought together top experts and industry leaders to share cutting-edge findings in key areas such as fuel cells and hydrogen production technologies.
- Leveraging Foshan’s Nanhai District—the “Capital of China’s Hydrogen Industry”—the exhibition significantly boosts order conversion efficiency. Nanhai District hosts over 170 enterprises and institutions within the hydrogen energy value chain, forming a complete industrial ecosystem encompassing policy support, technological R&D, and demonstration applications. During the 2025 exhibition, the official launch ceremony for the deployment of 100 hydrogen-powered official vehicles, 1,000 hydrogen-powered commercial vehicles, and 10,000 hydrogen-powered two-wheelers was held, with Zhongxin Hydrogen, Feichi Technology, and other companies deeply involved in large-scale demonstration projects.
- For Chinese enterprises, this exhibition serves as a strategic gateway to capture the benefits of the “15th Five-Year Plan” for hydrogen development, connect with international resources, and explore diversified application scenarios. As the hydrogen energy sector transitions from pilot demonstrations to large-scale implementation, CHFE, backed by a decade of industry experience, provides exhibitors with end-to-end services—from technology showcases and supply-demand matching to order fulfillment—helping them seize early opportunities in the trillion-yuan hydrogen market.
