Today, October 17, marks the third day of the first phase of the Canton Fair. One of the major highlights of this year’s event is the dedicated area for energy storage products within the renewable energy pavilion, which now also features displays of hydrogen energy and other alternative energy products.
Reporter Wu Meimiao: Right now, I’m at the renewable energy hall, number 14.3, where 110 renewable energy companies are showcasing their products. There are many buyers from both domestic and international markets here, eager to learn more about photovoltaic products, lithium batteries, and other renewable energy items.
Enhanced Energy Storage Products with Broader Applications
This is a solar-powered water pump control system, generating electricity through solar panels and precisely controlling the water flow by adjusting the output frequency. In arid desert regions where water transport is challenging, solar energy can enable efficient irrigation and water supply. As a result, these products have gained popularity among clients from the Middle East, South Asia, and Central Africa.
Many exhibits at this Canton Fair have been updated and upgraded based on extensive research, better aligning with buyer needs. For instance, the capacities of energy storage inverters have increased dramatically, producing more electricity. Products that were once used in urban apartments can now be adapted for larger rural areas, backyards, and villas abroad. Additionally, applications are expanding from home-based green energy systems to hotels, shopping malls, and factories. Exhibits are also competing on factors like material flexibility, energy efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.
Emergency Charging Solutions for Electric Vehicles
Just like smartphones have power banks, electric vehicles now have portable charging solutions too. For example, this exhibit features a power bank equipped with omnidirectional wheels. The accompanying display showcases its practical applications: when an electric vehicle runs out of power and there’s no charging station nearby, this device can provide emergency power. It supports a high output of 5000W, providing approximately 30 kilometers of range after just one hour of charging. It can be charged using solar panels or standard household electricity, reaching full charge in about 70 minutes.
Currently, some emergency services in China are already utilizing these types of devices, and they have attracted inquiries and attention from over a hundred domestic and international buyers in recent days.
Hydrogen Energy Products Entering the Market
This bicycle looks like an ordinary bike, but it’s actually a hydrogen-powered bicycle. Its low-pressure, portable hydrogen tank assists with climbing and riding, allowing it to reach speeds of up to 20 kilometers per hour. Some shared bicycles in certain cities in China have already adopted this technology. Furthermore, the development of hydrogen fuel vehicles is underway, with several exhibitors at the fair showcasing cutting-edge hydrogen fuel cell engines.
These emerging industries and advanced products from Chinese manufacturers are garnering significant interest, inquiries, and purchase orders from buyers worldwide.
Domestic Electric Tricycles Gaining International Attention
Since the opening of this year’s Canton Fair, numerous buyers have visited the renewable energy sections, with electric tricycles particularly capturing the interest of international purchasers. As the global focus on green transportation intensifies, China’s electric tricycle industry is experiencing new opportunities.
In the electric vehicle and smart transportation exhibit section, electric tricycles attract many foreign buyers due to their convenience and eco-friendly characteristics.
Italian Buyer Marco Logrillo: Countries like Italy are currently looking for new transportation options, something more cost-effective. With a lack of taxis, electric tricycles can solve transportation issues at a lower price, and they are very easy to operate.
In response to the international market’s urgent demand for electric vehicles and tricycles, many exhibitors have brought new products to the fair.
As an important platform for foreign trade companies to “go global,” the Canton Fair has become the preferred venue for introducing new products. Here, these companies have secured numerous cooperative orders from international buyers.
Exhibitor Xing Hongyan: Our products for electric mobility are not just aimed at individual customers; we have established many partnerships already.
