Shentou Hydrogen’s Post

China already accounted for 60% of global electrolyzer shipments in 2022 and 2023 before naming the advancement of the hydrogen sector as "one of the nation's fundamental industrial tasks this year". New targets are centered around getting fuel cell vehicles on the road but this push will likely have a positive effect on the green energy industry as a whole by incentivizing the development of lower cost and higher efficiency technologies in hydrogen electrolysis, storage, and transportation. https://lnkd.in/eRc7qaiH

Hydrogen-powered heavy-duty trucks, which sometimes cost over RMB1 million, could reach life-cycle cost parity with diesel trucks in China by 2027, a milestone which the world’s biggest producer and consumer of the zero-emission energy source, seeks to achieve eight years ahead of Europe. This will push forward the country’s ambition to dominate the market for hydrogen fuel cells in the transport sector as Beijing’s enabling environment starts paying off, said Robin Lin, chairman and president of Refire Group, a Chinese supplier of hydrogen fuel cell technologies. https://lnkd.in/gyPxpkGt South China Morning Post SCMP #hydrogen #energytransition #transportation #climatechange #cleanenergy

Western governments fear #China could take the lead in yet another major #green #energy market: #hydrogen. But, as Katrina Northrop reports, the hydrogen industry is far from settled. For years, Chinese #solar companies have led the world in harnessing the power of the sun. Now the country is competing hard in the race to produce more energy from the universe’s most abundant element — hydrogen. The latest landmark for China’s developing industry came last week, when Shanghai-based hydrogen #technology company REFIRE Group filed for an initial public offering in Hong Kong that could raise more than $100 million, according to the Wall Street Journal. Refire produces essential equipment such as #electrolyzers, which produce hydrogen with electricity, as well as #fuel cells which use the gas to power products such as electric vehicles. Firms like Refire have already helped China achieve a significant role in the emerging hydrogen power supply chain. The country is the largest producer and consumer of hydrogen globally, and as of last year, controls more than one-third of global electrolyzer manufacturing: Europe and North America respectively control 27 percent and 15 percent, according to the Clean Hydrogen Monitor. As the market rapidly scales up, #policymakers and companies outside of China worry that the hydrogen industry will follow the same trajectory as solar — where the Chinese #government poured subsidies into supporting companies, pushing down prices for panels and other products so far that it effectively wiped out foreign competitors. The global landscape for the hydrogen industry, however, is far from settled. For the article in full, follow the link below:

Only 1,068 hydrogen refuelling stations (HRSs) were built worldwide by the end of last year, but these numbers are set to skyrocket to 6,080 by 2030, according to data from market research firm Interact Analysis. China, which already accounts for 359 of today’s sites, is set to have 2,879 HRSs in operation by the start of next decade, or nearly half the global stations predicted by that year.

How is the hydrogen economy progressing worldwide? International Energy Agency (IEA) published their Global Hydrogen Review 2024 couple of days ago (link in the comments). Here are few highlight incase you have not had time to read it yet: 👉 Final investment decisions have doubled in the last 12 month reaching the total electrolyser capacity of 20 GW (globally). 👉 Of the announced FIDs (6 GW) in last 12 months China accounts 40%. 👉Although decisions have been made FIDs remain low, because investors wait for governments to clarify regulation. 👉The report highlight a gap between government goals for production and demand. The review suggest that governments should take bolder actions on developing demand. 👉 Recommendation for governments to provide long-term visibility over the lever and form of support. I have learned also that it is vital in this global competition, to build such a regulation and permitting processes which supports the investment decisions instead of slowing them down. There is also a high demand for European level CCU regulation, many industries are waiting on long-term view for this regulations. And just to add in order to advance hydrogen economy faster, let's not forget the hydrogen derivates, especially eMethane is a drop-in fuel that can substitute fossil natural gas as we speak. #hydrogeneconomy #powertox

🇨🇳 China is set this year to make the development of the #hydrogen industry one of its top priorities for the future. In the process, #fuelcells vehicles are expected to gain momentum, with the government setting a target of 50,000 FCVs on its roads by 2025 as part of efforts to achieve #carboneutrality before 2060. 🚙 Some challenges remain, as Gong Mingming of FTXT Energy Technology points out, citing the cost of #greenhydrogen, transport and storage, as well as the low efficiency of H2 refiling. This Chinese leader in research and development, as well as production and sales of hydrogen fuel cell products, expects 2025 to be the first turning point for the sector with the country's H2 output forecast to reach 1 trillion yuan ($139 billion). 📈 https://lnkd.in/eRc7qaiH

Who recaps my international trade show with an international conference, which we organized in the year 2004 in Shanghai, PR China on behalf of the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology? 可更新能源技术在中国—氢能源/燃料电池, 11月4日—11月9日 2004上海国际工业展会 中国科技部展厅 (简称MOST) 地点: 上海浦东国际博览中心 Meeting Point Renewable Energies China incl. Hydrogen + Fuel Cells, November 4-9, 2004 At the booth of the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) Venue: Shanghai New International Expo Center, Pudong 新世纪展望 A Prospect for the New Century Here you can see the fruits of our early initiative: China completed the first 10,000-ton workload operation test for its high-power hydrogen fuel cell locomotive A 10,000-ton workload operation test was successfully carried out jointly by CHN Energy Investment Group and CRRC in Ordos, Inner Mongolia. The locomotive, tracking 105 C80 carriages, went forward 2km on a flat railway. Photo: the 2,400kw hydrogen fuel cell locomotive, source: CRRC The locomotive is powered by a "hydrogen fuel cell + lithium electric power battery" with a designed speed of 100 km/hr and a maximum power output of 2,400 kilowatts. With the maximum starting traction of 560 kN, the locomotive can pull 10,000 tons of load on a flat straight road, or 5,000 tons on a 4‰ slope, according to the report. The locomotive uses high-pressure gas hydrogen as a resource and has a designed operation range of 1,000km. The locomotive adopts modular, standardized, and universal design, which can realize a variety of power supply modes and different energy output strategies according to different traction application needs. It could run on both on-grid and off-grid lines. With the successful test of the locomotive traction loading task, the second stage test of China's first high-power hydrogen-powered locomotive has been completed, CRRC said. CRRC has been jointly developing high power with various partners for multiple years, here is the brief timeline of their developing activities: https://lnkd.in/grp_gDMh Link to our 2004 event in the comments.
