On March 20, the People's Government of Jiangsu Province issued a notice on several policy measures to accelerate the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development in Jiangsu Province. The notice pointed out: to prospectively lay out future industries such as hydrogen energy, new-type energy storage, zero-carbon and negative-carbon, and synthetic biology, and to support cities like Suzhou and Nanjing in actively striving to create national-level future industry pilot zones. Accelerate the layout of a number of sustainable fuel projects, actively promote the full-chain development of hydrogen energy "production, storage, transportation, and utilization". Vigorously promote renewable energy substitution, strengthen the coupling development of industries such as steel, petrochemicals, chemicals, and building materials with renewable energy, and promote technologies such as electric boilers, electric kilns, and electric heating. Explore green hydrogen refining and hydrogen smelting. Establish and improve the market mechanisms for renewable energy heating, bio-natural gas, and green hydrogen. Accelerate the construction of "Water Transport Jiangsu", build a characteristic multimodal transport and river-sea intermodal transport system, and strive to increase the proportion of railway and waterway transport of bulk goods. Accelerate "transport-energy integration", green transformation of transportation infrastructure such as hub stations, highways, and service areas, and accelerate the construction of infrastructure networks such as charging (battery swapping) stations, hydrogen refueling stations, and shore power. Focus on key directions such as new-type high-efficiency solar cells, all-solid-state batteries, advanced nuclear energy, green hydrogen energy, and new-type energy storage, adopt organizational methods such as "unveiling the list and appointing the leader" and "horse racing", and organize and implement a number of major scientific and technological projects with strategic and market demand. Focus on cutting-edge fields such as hydrogen energy, new-type energy storage, and bio-based alternatives, and lay out a number of concept verification centers and pilot verification platforms.

China Launches Trade Barrier Investigation into US Green Product Trade Practices

[SMM Hydrogen Energy Bulletin] On March 27, the Ministry of Commerce announced in Announcement No. 18 of 2026 that it had initiated a trade barrier investigation into US practices and measures that hinder trade in green products. Preliminary evidence and information obtained by the Ministry of Commerce showed that the US had implemented multiple practices and measures in trade-related areas that hinder trade in green products, including but not limited to restricting exports of green products to the US, slowing the deployment of new energy, and restricting technology cooperation related to green products. The above practices and measures may have seriously harmed the trade interests of Chinese enterprises, and some of these measures were suspected of violating WTO rules and other economic and trade treaties or agreements jointly concluded or participated in by China and the US.
