The story explained

Hunan’s industry department reported on 15 October that a provincial meeting the previous day prioritised hydrogen-production equipment, fuel cells and end-use applications.

The meeting called for infrastructure planning, investment support, innovation platforms and stronger safety regulation and standards.
