Dit lijkt op andere industriesectoren in China, die vaak geconcentreerd zijn in clusters of hubs.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_161186\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-161186\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-161186\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Scherm%C2%ADafbeelding-2024-12-30-om-11.37.47.png?resize=640%2C399&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"399\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-161186\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Op dit moment ziet de toekomst van Toyota's waterstof personenauto, \u2018Mirai\u2019, er somber uit nu de waterstofprijzen de pan uit rijzen en de verkoop naar een dieptepunt in Covid-tijden daalt \/Toyot.a<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Waterstofknooppunten, net als andere industri\u00eble sectoren<\/h4>\n<p>De meeste Chinese elektronicabedrijven zijn bijvoorbeeld gevestigd in Shenzhen, terwijl de auto-industrie vooral is ontwikkeld in Changchun en Chongqing.<\/p>\n<p>Deze locaties worden gekozen omdat ze dicht bij rivieren of kusten liggen en omdat de integratie van de toeleveringsketen niet alleen de doorlooptijd verkort, maar ook de ontwikkeling van gespecialiseerde arbeidsvaardigheden en infrastructuurexpertise mogelijk maakt.<\/p>\n<p>De centrale overheid wijst tot 1,6 miljard yuan (\u20ac 200 miljoen) toe aan deze proefstedenclusters om de waterstofindustrie te ontwikkelen.<\/p>\n<p>De waterstof zal niet alleen worden gebruikt voor voertuigen, maar ook voor de productie van groene ammoniak en methanol, chemische materialen op waterstofbasis en waterstofmetallurgie.<\/p>\n<h4>De waterstofprijzen halveren<\/h4>\n<p>Maar om waterstof levensvatbaar te maken, moet het ook betaalbaar worden. Daarom wil China de gemiddelde prijs van waterstof voor eindgebruik verlagen tot minder dan 25 yuan (ongeveer 3,15 euro) per kg, of zelfs minder dan 15 yuan (1,9 euro) per kg in regio's met een ideale ligging.<\/p>\n<p>Dat is ongeveer de helft van de huidige prijs van waterstof in China, die varieert van 35 tot 50 yuan (\u20ac4,5 tot \u20ac6,25) per kg. Ter vergelijking: in Belgi\u00eb kost een kg waterstof aan de pomp ongeveer \u20ac10.<\/p>\n<p>Deze stap betekent niet dat China denkt dat waterstofvoertuigen een betere oplossing zijn dan BEV's. Met slechts 100.000 voertuigen verwacht tegen 2030, of minder dan 25.000 nieuwe voertuigen per jaar, zal dit neerkomen op minder dan 0,1% van de totale autoverkoop, en dan tellen we de bedrijfsvoertuigen nog niet eens mee. Maar als waterstof toch in zwang raakt, zal China er klaar voor zijn.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China is looking into developing its hydrogen industry as part of its decarbonization strategy.
