公司依靠完备的开发平台，深入开展新能源汽车的工程化、产业化开发，包括多种能源动力形式：如燃料电池动力、燃油混合动力、氢内燃机动力、天然气混合动力、纯电动动力等；多种车型：如大中型客车、载货车、特种车、超微型车。
经过多年的发展，公司已经初步形成了以汽车新型动力系统和氢能系统研发为核心的新能源汽车核心技术开发能力。截2008年8月，已经圆满完成了科技部863电动汽车重大专项所属的燃料电池城市客车研发、HCNG混合动力汽车研发、北京氢能示范园建设等任务。由我公司开发的燃料电池城市客车作为公交801区间投入为期一年的公交示范运营。
SinoHytec was founded in July 2004 in response to the national policies of self-innovation and accelerating industrialization of R&D outputs which is supported by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China, Beijing Municipal Government and Tsinghua University. It is a high-tech company focusing on R&D and industrialization of new energy and energy saving transport technologies. SinoHytec Co., Ltd is an enterprise of Energy-Saving and New Energy Vehicle Engineering Center of Tsinghua University.
SinoHytec has obtained many significant outputs of key technologies including design of electric vehicle, R&D of new energy power-train system, development of vehicle electric control system, etc. SinoHytec has a high quality team and provides a systemic and advanced platform for R&D and industrialization. Beijing Hydrogen Park for New Energy Transport and the first Hydrogen Refueling Station in China constructed by SinoHytec carry out the National High-Tech R&D Program(National 863 Program)— “The R&D and Demonstration Operation Project for Fuel Cell City Buses” and “Hydrogen Production by Renewable Energy and HCNG City Bus R&D Project”. The company is also responsible for the international collaboration of new energy vehicle and relevant technologies among China-U.S, China-Euro, and China-Canada.
SinoHytec has acquired the R&D ability of new energy focusing on the new motor system and hydrogen utilization over passed years. By 2005, SinoHytec has successfully completed the R&D of FCB, HCNG and the establishment of Beijing Hydrogen Park, which are the parts of national “863” Program of Electric Vehicles. In the meantime, the company also developed the micro electric car suitable for domestic situation. The three FCBs have been in service on city bus route “801” for one year. Highly praise and compliments come from many experts and groups in and abroad. Members from the Chinese Academy of Science and Chinese Academy of Engineering, Minister of Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology, officers from Beijing Municipal Government, secretary of US Department of Energy, and the commissioner of EU Science and Technology have visited SinoHytec respectively.
