Overview

SinoHytec, known in Chinese as 亿华通, is the public-facing brand of Beijing SinoHytec Co., Ltd. The company says it was established in 2012 and works across hydrogen energy and hydrogen fuel-cell research and industrialization. Its stated area of specialization includes fuel-cell systems, engines and stacks; it describes itself as an early participant in the research and commercialization of fuel-cell systems in China and says it has proprietary intellectual property and batch production capability for fuel-cell engines and stacks. The company’s principal product areas include hydrogen fuel-cell engines, combined heat-and-power systems, and hydrogen-production equipment. Its website describes fuel-cell engines for a range of vehicle applications, including buses, logistics vehicles, intercity coaches, tractor units, sanitation vehicles, passenger cars and forklifts. It also presents a combined heat-and-power system using a fuel-cell engine and associated components, and a self-developed PEM electrolysis hydrogen-production product. These offerings place SinoHytec across several parts of the hydrogen-energy value chain, from hydrogen production equipment to fuel-cell power systems and applications. SinoHytec’s development has been closely connected to demonstration and commercial deployment of fuel-cell vehicles in China. Its company history records early joint development of fuel-cell buses, trams and logistics vehicles, followed by production-base development, regional vehicle operations and cooperation with automotive and industrial partners. It reports that its engines were installed in more than 6,000 hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles as of December 2025; the same homepage states that the company’s engines accounted for 19% of the vehicles’ installed-engine total, while 180 engine models had appeared in Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announcements. The company is listed in both mainland China and Hong Kong: its website identifies the shares as 688339.SH and 02402.HK. It presents itself as a national high-technology enterprise and promotes a broader hydrogen-energy strategy alongside its fuel-cell business. The official history records the establishment of a hydrogen-energy technology subsidiary in 2023 and describes a dual focus on hydrogen energy and fuel cells. Its listed offerings and reported projects serve mainly Chinese transport and energy applications, while the company has also recorded an overseas research centre and overseas customer activity. The available evidence does not identify the company’s founders, headquarters address, or controlling shareholder.

History

Beijing SinoHytec Co., Ltd. was established in 2012, according to the company. Its early work included hydrogen fuel-cell engine development and joint development of fuel-cell vehicles. The company history records development of the HD-series engine in 2012 and a jointly introduced 50 kW fuel-cell bus in 2013. In 2014, it participated in introducing a low-floor fuel-cell tram. In 2015, it jointly introduced a domestic fuel-cell logistics vehicle and acquired Shanghai Shenli Technology Co., Ltd., expanding its corporate and technology base. In 2016, SinoHytec developed the YHT-series fuel-cell engine, listed on the National Equities Exchange and Quotations (the New Third Board), and recorded what it described as the world’s largest fuel-cell-engine order at that time. In 2017, it completed development of a new-generation proprietary fuel-cell stack module, put the first phase of its Zhangjiakou large-scale production base into operation, began development of a hydrogen-production plant and refuelling station there, and established an overseas research centre in Canada. The company also records establishment of a Beijing engineering technology research centre for hydrogen fuel-cell engines. The 2018–2019 period marked a move from development toward wider demonstrations and commercial operation. SinoHytec developed the YHTG-series engine in 2018 and records fuel-cell vehicle operations in Beijing-Zhangjiakou and Zhengzhou. In 2019, it developed the YHTG60SS engine and jointly introduced a fuel-cell bus with Toyota Motor and Beiqi Foton. Its history also records vehicle operations in Shanghai, Suzhou and Chengdu, participation in the International Hydrogen Council, and receipt of a China Automotive Industry Science and Technology Progress Award. In 2020, the company listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange STAR Market. It also joined China FAW, Dongfeng Motor, GAC Group, BAIC Group and Toyota Motor in establishing a joint fuel-cell-system research company. The company’s history records further fuel-cell vehicle operations in Zibo and Ma’anshan. In 2021, SinoHytec released 120 kW and 240 kW fuel-cell engines, established a joint venture with Toyota, and entered strategic agreements relating to hydrogen-energy equipment. It also records vehicle operations in Neijiang and Wuhai. In 2022, the company served as a core supplier and service provider for green transport at the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics, released its first combined heat-and-power system, and began a Zhangjiakou integrated green-transport demonstration project. In 2023, it listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and established Beijing SinoHytec Hydrogen Energy Technology Co., Ltd., describing this as part of a dual-engine strategy covering hydrogen energy and fuel cells. The company also records the start of the Yining green-hydrogen innovation and application project. Its homepage reports that, as of December 2025, more than 6,000 hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles were equipped with SinoHytec engines.
