[Ally Insights] A Comprehensive Guide to Hydrogen Key Points in the "15th Five-Year Plan": Anchoring New Quality Productive Forces for a Green Hydrogen Future.

In March 2026, the Outline of the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of China (hereinafter the "Outline") was officially released. As the blueprint for the next five years, hydrogen energy has been explicitly integrated into the core layout of future industries and new energy systems. This marks a pivotal transition for China's hydrogen industry into a stage of large-scale, market-oriented development. Ally Hydrogen provides an in-depth analysis of the core text, policy positioning, and strategic alignment to help you navigate new industrial opportunities.

Core Excerpts from the "15th Five-Year Plan" (Precise Positioning)

1. Strategic Positioning: A New Engine for Future Industries

• Original Text: Forward-looking layout for future industries; promoting quantum technology, biomanufacturing, hydrogen energy, and nuclear fusion as new economic growth drivers. (Page 15)

• Ally Insight: Hydrogen has officially joined the "first tier" of national future industries, evolving from a supplementary energy technology in the "14th Five-Year Plan" to a representative of New Quality Productive Forces.

2. Energy System: Core Layout of Green Hydrogen-Ammonia-Methanol

• Original Text: Accelerate the construction of a clean, low-carbon, safe, and efficient new energy system; layout the development of green hydrogen-ammonia-methanol; promote the synergy between renewable energy and hydrogen. (Page 20)

• Ally Insight: Defines hydrogen as a core carrier in the new energy system, integrating green hydrogen, ammonia, and methanol to solve renewable energy curtailment and deep decarbonization challenges.

3. Full-Chain Breakthroughs: Column 5 Major Projects

• Original Text: Focus on green hydrogen; improve renewable energy hydrogen production equipment; tackle large-scale hydrogen storage and transport; optimize infrastructure and extend the chain to green ammonia/methanol and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). (Page 22)

• Ally Insight: Tasks focus on three pillars: technical breakthroughs, industrial extension, and scenario expansion to build a trillion-RMB green hydrogen ecosystem.

4. Technological Support: Strategic Layout of Frontier Technologies

• Original Text: Strengthen the technological layout in strategic frontier fields; incorporate hydrogen energy into the strategic deployment of new energy science and technology; accelerate breakthroughs in basic theories and underlying technologies. (Page 27)

• Ally Insight: Taking technological innovation as the core driving force to overcome underlying challenges in core equipment, key materials, and system integration, ensuring a self-controllable industrial foundation.

The Evolution: "15th Five-Year Plan" vs. "Medium and Long-Term Plan (2021-2035)"

The "15th Five-Year Plan" aligns with and upgrades the national strategy across three dimensions:

• Strategic Status: Upgraded from an "important component" to a "core engine" of the Dual-Carbon strategy.

• Development Goals: Shifting from "pilot demonstrations" to "trillion-scale industry." (Targeting 100GW renewable hydrogen capacity and costs below 15 RMB/kg by 2030).

• Development Path: Moving from "single-point breakthroughs" to "full-chain synergy" covering industry, transport, storage, and power.
