China Energy Engineering Group Zhejiang Thermal Power Construction Co., Ltd., in collaboration with China Energy Engineering Group Guangdong Electric Power Design Institute Co., Ltd., has successfully put into operation the first megawatt-class anion exchange membrane (AEM) hydrogen production demonstration project for China Southern Power Grid. The project, located in Zhaoqing, China, boasts a hydrogen production capacity of 1.25 megawatts per hour. It features cutting-edge technology, including a 1-megawatt and a 250-kilowatt AEM hydrogen production system, along with a megawatt-scale AEM water electrolysis-based hydrogen refueling station. This initiative is a significant step towards green hydrogen production, storage, transportation, and utilization. The project's goals include testing hydrogen production equipment, exploring integrated control technologies, and accumulating experience in constructing and operating hydrogen energy projects. It is a pivotal move towards establishing China's first megawatt-scale AEM water electrolysis-based hydrogen production demonstration station. The operationalization of the project is expected to play a crucial role in promoting local green and sustainable development strategies, advancing the hydrogen energy industry, and contributing to China's 'dual carbon' goals.
