When it comes to Jiaxing, it may not be as well-known as Shanghai and Beijing, but it has been developing very fast in recent years.
Located in the northeast of Zhejiang Province, Jiaxing is a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Zhejiang Province and a city group of the Yangtze River Delta. It has developed into an important city of Shanghai metropolitan area and a sub-central city of Hangzhou metropolitan area now.
In 2022, Jiaxing's GDP reached 673.9 billion yuan, its total financial revenue, general public budget revenue and gross industrial output value above designated size rank third in Zhejiang Province. Its per capita disposable income of rural residents ranks first in Zhejiang Province for 19 consecutive years. Its number of newly introduced projects exceeding US $100 million ranks first and its total actual utilization of foreign capital remains third in the province. The comprehensive strength of the city ranks the 31st among the top 100 cities in China. The status as an important central city of the Yangtze River Delta city cluster is becoming increasingly prominent.
In the face of the achievements already made, Jiaxing is not "complacent" and it will step up efforts to further develop. Let's check out this year’s Jiaxing's national economic and social development plan issued by the local government.
Continuous expansion of effective investment
The city will leverage the key role of investment in improving the supply structure, 400 new industrial projects which worth more than 100 million yuan will be started. It will strengthen the reserve of projects, focus on infrastructure building, advanced manufacturing, and people's livelihood. It will also plan a number of major projects that are supportive and leading, and reserve more than 1,000 major projects with an investment of more than 1 billion yuan.
Jiaxing will speed up the development of a strong transportation city. It will accelerate the development of highway, railway, water-air transport hubs and ensure that more than 38 billion yuan is invested in transport, of which over 10 billion yuan will be invested in railways.
Vigorously boost consumption

The business environment is highly focused
Jiaxing will do more to help enterprises, such as reducing the burden on enterprises by more than 20 billion yuan for the year. It will increase support for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, reserve no less than 40 percent of government procurement projects for small and medium-sized enterprises. It will ensure that loans to inclusive small and micro businesses grow at a faster rate than loans of all kinds, and increase medium - and long-term loans to the manufacturing sector by more than 20 billion yuan.
It will foster an optimal business environment. The government environment, the rule of law environment and the market environment will be focused. The business environment convenience will be ensured. The enterprise credit repair mechanism will be improved.
In addition, in terms of accelerating the green and low-carbon development plan, Jiaxing is currently using hydrogen energy resources to develop green industries.
In response to the national call for environmental protection and green development, Jiaxing is taking advantage of its own hydrogen energy to develop related industries. Hydrogen energy is the world's largest reserves, with high combustion efficiency and no greenhouse gas emission. In order to speed up energy transformation and upgrading and foster new economic growth points, the city decided to pay more attention to hydrogen energy.
Jiaxing, one of the first pilot cities in Zhejiang to develop the hydrogen energy industry, successfully joined the national Fuel Cell Vehicle Demonstration Application Shanghai City Cluster in August 2021. With a strong industrial foundation of new chemical materials such as hydrogen, Jiaxing's industrial by-production is one of the regions most abundant resources in Zhejiang Province. The city's existing industrial by-production capacity of hydrogen is 48,000 tons/year.

At present, the city gathered a total of 37 hydrogen-related enterprises, covering hydrogen production, purification, storage and transportation, fuel cell key parts, hydrogen stations, vehicle production and operation services, basically forming a relatively complete hydrogen energy industry development ecological chain.

The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Construction Bureau said that Jiaxing will continue to speed up the demonstration application of fuel cell vehicles, promote the construction and operation management of hydrogen refueling stations.
