Energy costs, equipment costs, energy efficiency, etc.
1. Electricity cost: The process of electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen requires a large amount of electricity, and the cost of electricity accounts for a large proportion of the cost of hydrogen production. High electricity prices or the electricity used comes from very expensive energy sources, fossil fuels, which leads to an increase in the cost of hydrogen production through water electrolysis.
2. Equipment Cost: Electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen requires the use of sophisticated electrolysis equipment. The manufacturing, installation and maintenance of this equipment requires a significant investment. Efficient, large-scale electrolysis equipment costs more.
3. Energy Efficiency: The energy efficiency of electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen is relatively weak. During the electrolysis process, part of the electrical energy will be converted into thermal energy and lost, resulting in wasted energy.
Yili Clean Energy is a company focused on new energy. In recent years, it has been engaged in the research and application of photovoltaic hydrogen production technology. Its photovoltaic hydrogen production technology uses photovoltaic panels to convert solar energy into electrical energy, and then uses water electrolysis technology to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.
This technology has the following advantages:
1. Clean, pollution-free energy: Photovoltaic hydrogen production technology uses solar energy as an energy source, without the need for mining, combustion and other traditional energy methods that produce contaminants.
2. High-efficiency energy utilization: Photovoltaic panels that use solar energy can convert solar energy into electrical energy, and then use water electrolysis technology to decompose water into hydrogen and oxygen . between 70% and 80%.
3. Various application scenarios: Photovoltaic hydrogen production technology can be widely used in hydrogen energy, energy storage, clean transportation and other fields, providing important support for achieving sustainable development.
At present, Yili Clean Energy has applied photovoltaic hydrogen production technology in several projects and plans to further increase its investment in technology research, development and industrialization in order to promote the widespread application of clean energy.
