On August 27, Liuzhi in Guizhou welcomed a new artery for energy transition—the Guizhou Meijin Railway Siding passed its final acceptance, setting a benchmark for the clean and efficient utilization of coal and coke resources in Southwest China.

Regional Benchmark Leading the Green Future

Constructed by China Railway 23rd Bureau Group, the Guizhou Meijin Railway Siding is a critical supporting project of the Guizhou Meijin Coal-Coke-Hydrogen Comprehensive Utilization Demonstration Project. Located in the Liuzhi Special District of Liupanshui City, Guizhou Province, the 2.64-kilometer line encompasses eleven disciplines, including subgrade, tunnels, bridges, and signaling, communication, and power systems. With an annual designed transport capacity of 8 million tons, this siding serves as a vital logistics channel for the Liupanshui industrial base. It will continuously supply coal, coke, hydrogen energy, and related materials to the industrial park, significantly enhancing regional logistics efficiency and supporting Liupanshui’s transition from traditional "black energy" industries to green and efficient "green hydrogen" energy.

Efficient Logistics Building a Core Hub

The project includes a new modern enterprise station, featuring scientifically planned storage tracks, loading/unloading lines, and pull-out tracks to establish an efficient railway transport system. Currently, the station is fully equipped with supporting facilities such as tracks, subgrade, communication, signaling, power, and environmental protection systems, laying a solid foundation for safe, intelligent, and green operations. This will strongly support cost reduction and efficiency improvement in regional logistics.

Technology Driving the Energy Revolution

In the development of Guizhou’s hydrogen energy industry chain, this siding plays a key role as a critical link. Leveraging the supporting hydrogen energy industrial park, it facilitates the scientific conversion of coal resources into hydrogen raw materials, promoting a closed-loop process for hydrogen production, storage, transportation, and application. Not only does it optimize the regional energy supply structure, but it also actively contributes to the national "Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality" goals. This project explores a replicable and scalable practical path for the energy revolution in Southwest China.

"The opening of the Meijin Railway Siding is a significant milestone in Guizhou’s efforts to promote green energy transition, providing strategic support for regional energy security and economic upgrading," said Shao Guosong, the project manager.
