Green Transformation

New Energy Revenue Up 57% Year-on-Year; Full-Chain Industrial Layout Sets New Pace

"Green" and "Smart" are the two key words of this conference, and also the foundation of high-quality development of Shandong Heavy Industry.

In the first half of 2026, Shandong Heavy Industry's domestic new energy business revenue reached 24.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 57%. Among them, sales of Sinotruk new energy heavy trucks increased by 141% year-on-year, market share continued to rise, ranking first in the industry. Behind the high-speed growth performance is Shandong Heavy Industry's full-chain, systematic layout and accumulation in the new energy field.

At the core technology level, Shandong Heavy Industry has built globally leading new energy full industry chain competitive advantages. Weichai has established a diversified power system layout covering diesel, gas to pure electric, hybrid, hydrogen, SOFC and alternative fuels, forming an integrated industrial chain from traditional power, clean power to new energy power.

In terms of product reserves, the group has completed the layout of a full series of new energy product matrix. In the commercial vehicle field, it fully covers heavy trucks, light trucks, buses, light vehicles full series products; in the engineering machinery field, it possesses full series electric excavators, electric loaders, electric mining trucks, electric bulldozers, achieving multi-category, full-scenario product supply capabilities.

In terms of the service guarantee system, Shandong Heavy Industry has built new energy service capabilities covering the full lifecycle. Sinotruk coordinated with charging, hydrogen refueling infrastructure partners, continuously improving the global energy replenishment network system, solving pain points of overseas new energy transport energy replenishment; cooperated with international large transport fleets, customized scenario-based, professional new energy transport solutions, helping enterprises reduce costs and increase efficiency; joined hands with local partners to build a solid service guarantee barrier for the overseas market.
