Weichai Power recently indicated that demand for its power generation products used in data centers is robust, with both production and sales thriving; the company is accelerating its SOFC capacity expansion to meet customer needs.

Changjiang Securities released a research note stating that amid the global AI wave, Weichai is actively positioning itself in data center backup power diesel engines (large-bore) and primary power SOFC systems; its large-bore business has already entered a period of rapid volume growth, with performance consistently materializing.
